Over the past decade, the nonprofit Gun Violence Archive has recorded more than 5,300 mass shootings, defined as incidents in which at least four people were shot, excluding the perpetrators. Only four of those — less than one-tenth of 1 percent — were committed by people known to identify as trans or nonbinary. They were the 2023 Covenant School shooter, the 2023 Club Q shooter, one of the 2019 STEM School Highlands Ranch shooters, and the 2018 Maryland Rite Aid warehouse shooter. Right-wing personalities frequently point to these four incidents to suggest that trans people are a threat.
