Dr. John Lott talked to Cam Edwards on his show Cam & Co about the CPRC’s new research on the errors in the FBI active shooting reports.

According to the FBI, armed citizens have stopped less than 5% of mass shootings, but Dr. John Lott with the Crime Prevention Research Center has crunched the numbers and found them to be massively under-reported. In fact, his data shows almost half of all mass shootings in 2021 were ended by a “good guy with a gun.”

On Cam & Company, “Armed Citizens Stop More Mass Shootings Than You Might Think,” October 5, 2022.
