Jul 29, 2025 | Media Coverage

Lisa Boothe on Fox News’ Outnumbered discusses John Lott’s work on active shootings (July 29, 2025). Lott’s point was: The New York City murderer who killed four people broke numerous gun control laws—he openly carried a rifle that was already illegal to possess or carry in the city. Meanwhile, the law-abiding victims were defenseless, disarmed by the city’s strict regulations. Again and again, diaries and manifestos of mass public shooters show a disturbing pattern: they deliberately choose locations where they know their victims can’t fight back due to restrictive gun laws. While it remains unknown whether this particular killer made such a calculation, his actions align with a pattern we’ve seen repeatedly in other cases. 92% of mass public shootings occur in place where guns are banned.
