Massive errors in FBI active shooting reports

Want to guess which way the errors went?

Massive errors in FBI’s Active Shooting Reports from 2014-2022 regarding cases where civilians stop attacks: Instead of 4.6%, the correct number is at least 35.7%. In 2022, it is at least 41.3%. Excluding gun-free zones, it averaged over 63.5%.

Massively understated the number of times civilians stopped attacks.

I often read the FBI's annual report and I find that it is usually pain staking thorough and out right redundant in reporting of statistical categories. Meaning they could combine stats into a single category in many cases. They don't but you can like this person in the article did. Mass shootings are categorized after the results and victims counted so attempting to combine an incident that was thwarted by a citizen is impossible as it isn't known what the intent of the shooter was. Also, most real mass shootings like those perpetrated on schools are well planned and executed in areas that are "Gun Free Zones" so of course that would be a low statistical number as citizens abide by the laws. Today a mass shooting is simple more than one victim. This of course an effort to inflate numbers.

But the FBI report doesn't hide anything. Read it. It's all there.

I doubt I'll see this on any national news.

The dogma does not support the Democrats paradigm, therefor must be skewed or careers will be ended.

If the real stats were known, it would prove the NRA's statement, "Only a good guy with a gun, can stop a bad guy with a gun."

No lib run org, wants anyone to have a gun but themselves.

If we were not armed, Obama would have started the massive relocation program of whites, to who knows where, to ensure diversity and fairness in housing.

Everyman's home is his castle, and castle laws apply in many burgs..hence fewer squatters and home invaders..seeking justice and reparations equity.

In a functional society, armed citizens who aren't law enforcement officers would complement law enforcement in protecting society from psychopaths who could launch an attack at any time and LE would welcome the help. Instead, you have Fed LE and several departments in our own state looking at armed private individuals as competition.

The bureaucracy is a joke.
