    Yes. Since they are less than 1% of the population. We should rarely if even see a trans person in a mass shooting. Yet that isn’t the case.

            Most citations show about .3-.6 for the transgender community. The most recent article I read showed about 4 out of 300 for mass shootings. The problem is how they define it but even at the number, it shows a trans person is more likely to be a mass shooter as a percentage of the population.

            If you only look at raw numbers, yes, white males are more likely in volume to commit mass shootings but they are one of the single largest groups. That is a no brainer.
