Study: 1 in 15 US adults has experienced a mass shooting firsthand

WTF??

"By the numbers: About 7% of 10,000 U.S. adults surveyed online in January 2024 said they had been present at a mass shooting — defined as an incident where four or more people were shot.

  • 2% reported being injured, whether by gunfire, by shrapnel or in the chaos of people fleeing.
  • Among those uninjured, about 75% said they suffered psychological distress.
  • More than half of those who had witnessed a mass shooting said it happened within the last decade."
