    I looked up an actual statistic and it was way fewer than 1/400, so yeah. Though I do think the point about not everyone having the same experience bears thinking on, regardless of the screenshot’s accuracy.

      Way fewer is a bit of an understatement. They are off by 5 orders of magnitude.

      It’s roughly 1 in 10,440,000.

        The number I got was >200 daily gunshot wounds out of a population of 340 000 000 in the US.
