United States gun violence

Approximately 33,000 people were killed in the US last year as a result of gun violence, with more than half of them resulting from people taking their own lives.

A mass killing, which means four or more people are killed, takes place on average nine out of every 10 days in the United States of America.

US citizens account for less than five per cent of the world's population, nevertheless, more than 31 per cent of the perpetrators of mass shootings are Americans.
