UPDATED: France had more casualties from mass public shootings in 2015 than the US suffered during Obama’s entire presidency (532 to 527)

Feb 22, 2017 | Featured

“With respect to Planned Parenthood, obviously, my heart goes out to the families of those impacted. … I say this every time we’ve got one of these mass shootings: This just doesn’t happen in other countries.” –Obama, news conference at COP21 climate conference in Paris, Dec. 1, 2015

“We are the only advanced country on Earth that sees these kinds of mass shootings every few months.” –Obama, statement on shootings at Umpqua Community College, Roseburg, Ore., Oct. 1, 2015

“You don’t see murder on this kind of scale, with this kind of frequency, in any other advanced nation on Earth.” –Obama, speech at U.S. Conference of Mayors, June 19, 2015

“At some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries. It doesn’t happen in other places with this kind of frequency. And it is in our power to do something about it.” –Obama, statement on the shooting in Charleston, S.C., June 18, 2015

“But we are the only advanced country on Earth that sees this kind of mass violence erupt with this kind of frequency. It doesn’t happen in other advanced countries. It’s not even close. And as I’ve said before, somehow we’ve become numb to it and we start thinking that this is normal.” –President Obama, announcing his new executive orders on guns, January 7, 2016

“The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world.  And there’s some steps we could take, not to eliminate every one of these mass shootings, but to improve the odds that they don’t happen as frequently.” –President Obama, interview that aired on CBS Evening News, Dec. 2, 2015

“We kill each other in these mass shootings at rates that are exponentially higher than anyplace else. Well, what’s the difference? The difference is that these guys can stack up a bunch of ammunition in their houses.” –President Obama, during Q&A with David Karp, CEO Tumblr, June 10, 2014

Yet, despite the impression that President Obama has been creating, France suffered more casualties (murders and injuries) from mass public shootings in 2015 than the US has suffered during Obama’s entire presidency (Updated 532 to 527 in Tables below).  Note that these numbers don’t adjust for the fact that the US has 5 times the population of France.  The per capita rate of casualties in France is thus 8.19 per million and for the US it is 1.65 — France’s per capita rate of casualties is thus 4.97 times higher than the rate in the US.

A systematic look at the frequency and deaths from mass public shootings from the US and Europe is available here.  The very high rate of attacks in the rest of the world is discussed here.  We use the traditional FBI definition of mass public shootings.

UPDATE: The number of people injured in the California attack was raised from 17 to 21, thus increasing the US causality total to 396.  The number of people injured in the Paris attacks on November 13th has also been increased from 352 to 368 and the number of people killed by one from 129 to 130 so the total casualties for Paris alone is now 525.

UPDATE: February 4, 2016.  If only by excellent police work and some luck, last November Paris was literally just three days away from several more mass public shootings planned for a nursery school, a shopping mall, and a police station.

UPDATE: Of course, there have been many terrorist attacks that have harmed a lot of people that didn’t involve just guns.

July 14, 2016: 86 people were killed and another 434 injured after a truck slammed into a crowd celebrating Bastille Day in the southern French city of Nice.  The attacker here was also shooting people but none of the breakdowns of casualties breaks out deaths from the truck with deaths from being shot.

December 22, 2014: 10 people were seriously injured when a van drove into pedestrians at a Christmas market in Nantes, France, in the western part of the country.

December 21, 2014: 11 people were injured, two seriously, when an Arabic driver yelling “Allahu Akbar” (God is great) drove his car into pedestrians in Dijon, France.

    It looks like there’s at least one shooting missing on your list.

    2015, Four people have been killed in a shootout at a Roma camp in north-eastern France: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34056268

    • Padre John

      That’s actually the Roye shooting listed in the statistics.

    • Tom

      Jay, those numbers are based on (I wish I was kidding but I’m not) a Reddit group that uses a broad non-standard definition of “mass shooting”. Specifically, the Reddit group includes incidents with no fatalities and at least four injuries (including the shooter) while the FBI definition includes only incidents in which at least four people are killed. This research appears to use the FBI definition.

    • TimG

      There is a difference in definition for US figures. I think the figures above come from the official FBI list which requires 4 killed or more to make the grade. The MSM is using a Reddit list where no one killed can make the list.

    • Drew

      The huge number that the liberal media is claiming came from a count that came from a reddit group. By definition a mass shooting is a shooting that has more than 4 fatalities. The number of actual mass shootings in the U.S. is much much smaller than 300.

      • MacWa77ace

        The FBI stats include gang shootings, often where there are casualties on both sides of the gang related gunfight.

        Media will also often include gun suicide in their stats, murder/suicide equals mass shooting when the definition is adjusted to 2 fatalities. which they often do.

        Removing Illinois, District of Columbia, California, and gang related and murder/suicide from the data set, [2 States and a district with the highest level of gun control, and gang activity/murder rates] and the false data related to the real mass shooting, and you get my drift.

  2. eric.

    Their numbers are so high because they include incidents like two kids playing with abb gun and no serious injuries.

    They also don’t list locations…like gun free paradise Chicago and dc.

    • Chris

      How is it that an editor from Mother Jones posted something objective and reasonable that displayed clear and rational thought? My historical impression of that sight has been that they lie as far Left and “frothing at the mouth” partisan as possible.

      • Mary B O'Donnell

        It is possible to be a liberal or conservative source of news and still manage to be reasonably objective. Or, maybe they’re “conservative” on this one issue. I never understood why one has to be conservative to oppose gun control.

  3. QB

    Yet again, another post that provides no useful information. Still struggling with the definition of the word “frequency”?

  4. QB

    Thank you Dr. Lott! Because of your hard work, ISIS can continue shooting US citizens as they wish and catch up on the body counts to those found in European countries (sic). We just learned that Tashfeen Malik pledged allegiance with ISIS. It won’t be difficult for others to get access to firearms continue their work.

  5. Mark

    1: There is no source listed for these spreadsheets.

    2: The number of “mass shootings” used by Mother Jones is very specifically defined and limited to mostly single shooters in a single location. That would eliminate Hebdo and the November attacks from the comparison. http://www.motherjones.com/politi…/2012/…/mass-shootings-maphttp://www.motherjones.com/politi…/2012/…/mass-shootings-map

    Hebdo and November were clearly complex, planned, rehearsed attacks requiring international support, financing , and coordination. Part of the plan had to include the acquisition of the weapons and the making of bombs. It is patently ridiculous to compare that to guys grabbing whatever legal military-grade weaponry they had lying around the house.

    Excluding Charlie Hebdo and the recent Paris attacks, in France there was (according to whatever mystery source(s) you are using) one incident this year with 4 fatalities. There are a total of 5 incidents since 2001 and NONE between ’02 and ’09 . There were a grand total of 20 fatalities from 2001 to the time you printed this article. Further, the “other” incident this year, the grocery store would probably not fit the definition either. Coulibaly was acting on instructions, possibly from the same support group as the Hebdo attacks. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/paris-kosher-supermarket-attack-amedy-coulibaly-received-emailed-instructions-1523850. As a side note, he also killed a police woman earlier. The nursery school incident had no fatalities, so that doesn’t fit the definition either.

    So if, in the interest of statistical accuracy of comparing similar incidents – which I am sure since you are a “research center” is a top concern – you eliminate those 2, assuming the other 3 incidents are comparable, here is what you get, beginning in 2001 (the beginning of W Bush’s presidency):
    An average of 1 incident every 56 months
    An average of 5.33 fatalities and .33 injuries per incident
    A total of 16 fatalities and 10 injuries
    Fewer total “casualties” in 14 years than occurred Wednesday.

    Questions for further “research”: What kinds of weapons were used in those 3 French incidents? Were they obtained legally?

    Now, what was the point you were trying to make?

    • Mark

      To clarify my first statement:
      “An average of 1 incident every 56 months
      An average of 5.33 fatalities and .33 injuries per incident
      A total of 16 fatalities and 10 injuries”

      That is actually misleading, since none of the three 2015 incidents meets the definition used by Mother Jones, there is only data including 2001 through 2012. That makes it 3 incidents in 12 years, with 9+ year period of none.

  6. Sarah Palin

    Talk about picking and choosing data. John Lott won’t stop with the lies.

  7. Juan Suarez

    So according to the data here in this article, the US really does have a more frequent ‘mass shooting’ rate (“every few months” seems to be about right). France has had very few, but very devastating events, concentrated this year.

    I did a (not-so-quick) search on the motives for all of the US shootings, and the biggest 3 recurring motives are ‘race’ (either lashing out at perceived racism or hatred, as was the case in the Sikh temple shooting), domestic issues (ex: relationship/family problems), and mental issues (schizophrenia/short-fuse rage/self-proclaimed obsession with killing from an early age). Only the most recent event at San Bernardino was related to a terrorist organization, and even then, it’s been said they were self-radicalized (the woman pledging her allegiance to ISIS, though not a direct operative). The 2015 Chattanooga shootings were the only other US shootings listed here related to terrorism, and also reportedly self-radicalized. In France, this is akin to self-radicalized Amedy Coulibaly, who also similarly pledged his allegiance to ISIS before the Grocery Store attacks.

    The France shootings are, by far, the most devastating. But why?

    I researched into the French shootings listed here: 3 were related directly with terrorists (ranging from Al-Qaeda in Yemen to ISIS/Daesh), with one being a racially motivated attack (2012 was an antisemitic attack).

    I’ve seen this article cited to be all “Look how wrong Obama is!” but to claim that is grabbing facts to tell unrelated stories. If we omit the events directly caused by external terrorists (that makes… well, the November attacks in France and the Charlie Hebdo shootings – San Bernardino is ‘internal’ but if you’d like to treat it as though it were directly ISIS related, omit that too), how do the numbers change? For those committed internally (disgruntled employees, racial violence, domestic issues with huge collateral damage), the numbers stagger heavily towards the US. Actually, the entire political statement of this article “France suffered more casualties (murders and injuries) from mass public shootings in 2015 than the US has suffered during Obama’s entire presidency” relies ENTIRELY on the November attacks in France.

    Thanks for posting at least some factual information though – most of the dates corroborate with what I found when looking up the motives (some of them happened over the course of a few days and I see you picked the average for those).

    I actually looked up the shootings one by one and gathered the publicly-released motives in my own spreadsheet. I even found names and motives for some of the French shootings that weren’t listed: 2001 Jean-Pierre Roux-Durrafourt, 2002 Richard Durn.

    So again, thanks for the facts; I’m just disappointed they were used for such a weak political argument as this rather than proposing some kind of … crime prevention statement.

    ex: Most of the school shootings were done by fairly young people with killing obsessions or who have gone through some traumatic family/relationship event and decided they wanted to die, but taking some friends with them. Maybe this can be prevented by finding ways to teach respect of life and how to cope with heavy events to people at a young age, etc. (Just some throwaway idea).

    Then again, if you only look at # casualties rather than motives, you can’t possibly get anything useful from that except for the ability to say “look, more injuries! numbers!” There are way more factors to consider with the numbers anyway, especially for outlier events like terrorist attacks – like how ready were the police before they were able to stop any injuries from happening, how crowded were the areas that were hit? etc.

    • QB

      Well, basically Lott is saying that a highway where a bus happened to have crashed with 30 casualties is more dangerous than a highway that experienced 30 crashes with one casualty each ceteris paribus (same exposure, length, time period, etc.). He should try to have this kind of work published in peer-reviewed journals and see where it goes.

      • Chris Bennett

        I disagree.

        What he is saying is that Obama has said: “My highway has had 30 bus crashes and no-one else’s highways are having bus crashes at all.”

        This is simply disproving Obama’s statement as factually incorrect in a fairly dramatic fashion.

        • Joe

          But it’s silly. You can’t just ignore all non-mass-shooting gun violence – people talk about how you shouldn’t relate gangs shooting each other to a nutjob walking into a theatre with a machine gun, but neither of those things would happen in the UK at all.

          It’s just statistical accounting, having a narrower set of guidelines where mass shootings are only where 4 or more people have been killed is misleading, because it doesn’t take into account all the other violence which European countries don’t have.

          And let’s be honest, France 2015 was targeted by terrorists repeatedly, it’s not really the same situation

        • QB

          As Joe said, this is silly. Look up the definition of frequency.

  8. me

    Unsurprisingly the statistics are very selective.

    And downright wrong
    Many were victims of bombings in the Paris 130 dead

    likewise the 368 injuries were not all gun related, the bombings, minor injuries like falls, grazes mental trauma, hypothermia was common , even a heart attack are considered in the statistics.

    In other words your real statistics facts
    190 People died in the US (All by Guns!)
    and France 150 Died (not all by guns)

    This also is very specific to limit the ridiculous death toll in US for 1 2 or 3 person fatality events that you’ve deliberately excluded as not be mass shootings

    Since including all gun deaths isn’t about crime prevention is it?

  9. Vincent Goossens

    Well, yes, because most US shootings are badly planned. Last time an attack on the US was coordinated as well as the Paris attack, 3000 people died. Remember this was a densely packed nightclub and all casualties ware made before the police heard about it. No gun laws could have prevented casualties in Paris, but they do reduce the number of random shootings drastically.

  10. Greg

    This is just wrong and manipulated on so many levels

    Firstly you use two of the worst terror attack in Europe for a decade to try and compare domestic, civilian mass shootings.

    Shootings from terrorist attacks are not caused by gun law management. Virtually all the deaths in mass US shootings have no links to terror related motives and could have been potentially stopped with different gun laws. Discounting terror attacks on both sides leaves 12 dead for France and 185 for the USA

    Secondly, show me the stats for the following countries:

    UK
    Germany
    Spain
    Italy
    Norway
    Sweden
    Finland
    Denmark
    Switzerland
    Canada
    Holland
    Ireland
    Iceland
    Hungary
    Czech Republic
    Australia
    New Zealand
    Austria
    Portugal

    Let’s start with them. Are any of them anywhere near above you per head? So we can stop discussing anomalies and get back to the vast reality for the developed world?

    Please don’t start to counter my argument until you post stats for all the above countries listed.

  11. Daniel Norton

    Reading all of the comments , I was reminded of my Statistics 101 class in college (1960’s). The first reading assignment was:” How to lie with statistics ” William Foote White.

    • johnrlott

      The point of this post was to evaluate President Obama’s quote at the beginning of the post. If you could be specific about your comment on these other comments, it would be appreciated.

      • Chris

        Obama clearly used the word “frequency” in the quote you cited. Your stats do not show a higher frequency of mass shootings in France.

        • johnrlott

          Our second table shows the frequency of mass public shootings across countries. In that rating, France is 11th during Obama’s presidency and the US is 12th. Note last year, despite France having 1/5th the population of the US, they had the same number of mass public shootings as the US. So explain again to me how “It’s not even close” in other countries.

          • QB

            You still don’t understand the difference between frequency (events/unit of time) and rate (events/unit of time/exposure). Chris and Obama are right and you are wrong. Furthermore, the relationship between shootings and exposure (i.e., population) is nonlinear. Hence, even using a rate is wrong for comparison purposes.

  12. Steve

    So by the numbers, there were actually less fatalities in france than in the US. Extrapolating on the data the answer is clear. The french are piss poor shots. Good thing they invite all those nice muslim folks in to improve their accuracy numbers. Or should I say zirs? I forget what pronoun france likes to be called.

    • Erica Baker

      I guess you’re going to call yourself a good Christian as you ridicule all Muslims. Muslims have the same mental health issues as many others if they live in a basically safe country. Those I have helped remake their lives after escaping daily death and bombings from Isis on one side and the US on the other are not all so lucky. You don’t scrape your toddlers intestines off the floor after a US cluster bomb and wonder what you’ll have for dinner. And Muslims are good shots, are they? Easily 90% of those I’ve counselled had never held a firearm! As one mentioned, it’s a bit difficult to scare away a gunship with a garden rake, but you’ll get shot for trying.

  13. Poupou007

    It’s funny to read this article and american reactions.
    u know there is a difference between USA and France.

    In 2015
    USA Number of homicides. 34,200
    France 378

    That’s all

    ALLAHU AKBAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. DJ Hilton

    There’s no information to indicate France has a worse gun crime problem than the US except a very deadly yet very easy to repeat terrorist attack. On the other hand, there are many, many mass shootings in the US with “only” 4-5 victims that seem to have been overlooked.

  16. freerigr

    You’re missing an awful lot of incidents on your list.

    Here’s a good website to peruse: http://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting
    I counted 83 incidents with 4+ being killed since they started recording mass shootings in 2012. There’s a lot more with less kills and plenty of injuries.

    I also notice you neglected to draw attention to the fact that the Paris terrorist attack aside, France only had 28 people killed in 6 years.
    And the Paris attack is like 9/11: It’s a statistical anomaly that skews any statistics that include it quite strongly.

  17. Billyboy

    Do any of you statisticians know how many were shot in France by their own countrymen as a comparison of those in the US?
    A comparison of French on French as against American on American would put the point better.

    • Peter

      These numbers would be almost identical to the numbers above, as the majority of the attackers were French citicens.

Your agendas are more opaque than any politician today and you claim to be a neutral new source, but you’re just an agenda based spokesman like all the rest of the media today.

    • johnrlott

      Dear Joe: Could you please give me an idea of why you say that this post is incorrect? Thanks.

  19. tom Walton

    The article cherry picks one year, 2015 which includes the terrorist attack in Paris on November 13. It was not a typical year because of this attack and it is greatly misleading. Without that attack, there would have been 28 mass shooting deaths in France during the period 2009 to 2015. If the terrorist attacks are removed from the US data shown, we get 172 deaths.
    There are many web sites with differing data on mass shootings. Mother Jones excludes shootings where less than 4 people are killed, regardless of how many are wounded. The FBI uses the same death criteria. Mother Jones EXCLUDES armed robberies, shootings where there are more than one shooter, shootings that did not take place on private property. But it makes some exceptions to these criteria.

    The thesis of the Mother Jones study (http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/07/mass-shootings-map} is to show that most mass shooters get their guns legally (if you exclude armed robbers who always use legally obtained, registered guns). This should raise alarm bells because it shows very convincingly that it is far too easy for crazy people to obtain fire arms and bring them to a public location.

    But what is disturbing to me is that the shootings where less than 4 people are killed, regardless of the number wounded, are not included in either the FBI stats or in the Mother Jones data. Is a shooting by someone with poor aim any less serious than a shooting by a marksman? Is a shooting in a crowded theater with lots of immobile targets more serious than a shooting in a public park. The mental health and gun control issues are the same.

    The gun manufacturers are doing what the tobacco industry and the asbestos industry did in years gone by and what creationists are doing now. They are telling lies based on misinterpretations of the data published by supposed authorities on the subject. They depend on the fact that no matter how outrageous the lie, there will be people who are dumb enough, weak minded enough, uncritical enough, paranoid enough or with sufficiently conflicted interests, to repeat these lies over and over again, often on radio and television or in the press. And if a lie is repeated often enough by enough people it becomes accepted as fact. The gun manufacturers control the NRA which provides a front for the pro-gun lobby. The struggle for gun control laws has nothing to do with freedom and the Second Amendment and everything to do with corporate profits. Like the tobacco industry, they don’t care that, when used as intended, their product kills and maims people. All they care about is profits. First they sell you a gun and then they sell you ammo.

    There is no constitutional right to keep and bear ammunition.

    The US has one of the worst death rates by guns in the world, period. Almost 4 times that of France.

    And given that the US doesn’t even collect proper stats, goodness knows what the real truth is.

    Don’t fudge the data. Take a look at the total homicide rate using firearms in the two countries.

    http://www.humanosphere.org/science/2016/06/visualizing-gun-deaths-comparing-u-s-rest-world/

    If you want to argue that guns are so precious to you that you can live with a higher homicide rate, I guess that’s your right. But to claim that more people are shot to death in France or any other Western country than the USA is a lie.

    • johnrlott

      No one is fudging the data. If you have evidence of fudging data, please provide it. We have a detailed discussion of homicides and firearm homicide rates across countries. You probably don’t even know that a lot of countries don’t even report firearm homicide rates, and that this is especially true for the countries with the highest homicide rates.
      https://crimeresearch.org/2014/03/comparing-murder-rates-across-countries/
      As you know and the quotes show, former President Obama often made statements about the rate of mass public shootings in different countries. The point of this post is to show that all those claims by Obama were false.
