@@wmwm6252 The facts they use here, are very misleading, Norway has only had one mass shootings in its history, so you are more likely to killed in a mass shootings in the states.
@@christophermunn3819 Yes there are more mass shootings in the USA than anywhere else in the World. Yet I would loke to see some true data on places like Pakistan and northern India - Mass shootings are a strange phenomena in that the killings are numerous but the selection is not -- ie, Schools- workplace - church - therefore becoming victim of mass shootings is not as predictably constant as pure frequency of such shootings.
I'm not a gun owner nor do I ever want to own a gun. However, I prefer honest statistics, even if it doesn't support a belief that I may have. Thanks for posting this video! I never knew the source for the claim about mass shootings, and I'm glad I have a more accurate understanding now.
As an American, this is very simple for me. Mass shootings are committed by criminals who misuse firearms. They are not committed by law-abidding Americans with firearms. Regardless of whether 1 mass shooting or 10,000 of them occur, it does not change the right of Americans to keep and bear arms. This amendment is supposed to restrict the government from infringing on this basic right of Americans. Yet, it still does. Every single one of the thousands of pieces of firearm-related legislation are inherently unconstitutional because they all infringe on the right to keep and/or bear arms. At this point, I will never vote for sny politician that supports even a single additional law further restricting our right to keep and bear arms.
A more interesting question is: do "mass shootings" of unarmed civilians by various governments, militias, terrorists, and similar groups, count as "mass shootings" here?

I would like to gut him open. The smugness....he is happy to arrogantly claim that law abbiding people should have their rights restricted but dares not provide his data.
I don't have time for FACTS and EVIDENCE of my research. I just know it's the right thing to do based on feelings and emotions. Wait why does it sound familiar?
Furthermore if you factor Chicago, Memphis, Detroit, New Orleans, Baltimore, and East St. Louis out of the equation the US’ gun homicides virtually cease to exist. That’s right. The vast majority of unlawful gun violence all boils down to one community killing themselves. Sad but true.
"Academic Malpractice"...damn, what a perfect term for this! Love his (Lankford's) methodology, too (sic)... when I took statistics & research methods, I was taught, "if you can't prove it... then it doesn't exist"... here, you have, "I made up my own facts...I have my own truth despite evidence to the contrary"... pseudo-science at its finest! Lankford is a liar and like many of his progressive ilk; manipulating and/or fabricating of facts & statistics to fit a political agenda is the norm!
Some of the claims they make now about climate change are decades old. The 97% of climate scientist agree claim was first made 20 years ago. The claim that we have 12 years to reverse this was first made back in 1980, except it was just global warming and not climate change and that was a year after still making the claim of a coming ice age.
How did he get published without providing data for peer review!!!????. That's scientific method 101. What a hack. I'm sure they gave him tenure for this.
Here is the problem I have with Langford's so-called "academic study"...He claims he screened out shootings related to other crimes, genocide, and a couple of other factors. So, my question would be: Did he do that in the US study? Did he screen out Fort Hood's "workplace violence incident" or the Pulse's shooting?
I would like to know how politicians, media, etc can get away with making claims based off from one (1) single individual's research and not even consider the fact that the data is biased??
Any "study" or "paper" that fails to provide enough data or details for someone else to repeat thier work is, and should be, automatically considered bogus. Someone else needs to repeat the work, providing those details, so that it can be verified. I believe this practice probably goes back to the biblical saying "By 2 or 3 witnesses shall every word be established."
Exactly right. Too many people simply accept such "studies" at face value, and think that if a professor or scientist published it, then it must be true, no matter what. And this Lankford character obviously understands that, and took advantage of it with his bogus "study".
@@fredflintstone4715 Exactly, and that's not acceptable to anti-gun libs. Because when they're confronted with the truth, their entire narrative falls apart.
Yankford should be fired from the institution he works for. Professors of any kind, associate, assistant, or full, should understand that details and research must me accurate. For this fakefessor to not provide information from his "forty years" of research is unforgivable.

Yet I would loke to see some true data on places like Pakistan and northern India - Mass shootings are a strange phenomena in that the killings are numerous but the selection is not -- ie, Schools- workplace - church - therefore becoming victim of mass shootings is not as predictably constant as pure frequency of such shootings.
I'm not a gun owner nor do I ever want to own a gun. However, I prefer honest statistics, even if it doesn't support a belief that I may have. Thanks for posting this video! I never knew the source for the claim about mass shootings, and I'm glad I have a more accurate understanding now.
As an American, this is very simple for me. Mass shootings are committed by criminals who misuse firearms.
They are not committed by law-abidding Americans with firearms.
Regardless of whether 1 mass shooting or 10,000 of them occur, it does not change the right of Americans to keep and bear arms.
This amendment is supposed to restrict the government from infringing on this basic right of Americans. Yet, it still does.
Every single one of the thousands of pieces of firearm-related legislation are inherently unconstitutional because they all infringe on the right to keep and/or bear arms.
At this point, I will never vote for sny politician that supports even a single additional law further restricting our right to keep and bear arms.
A more interesting question is: do "mass shootings" of unarmed civilians by various governments, militias, terrorists, and similar groups, count as "mass shootings" here?
They need to put their efforts into Mental Health. Gun control is not the problem mental health is the problem
You forgot demons..demons are a huge problem..
Had guns for hundreds of years, ar15s in civilian hands for 50+, and this style of shootings for 15. Societal issue, not a gun issue.
both are problem, how many people do you think looney with a knife can kill? and with a gun? do the math. or just inspect historical evidence.
@@ivok9846 How many people can be saved by a person with a gun? If everyone has knives how can your grandma fight off attackers? Please think before you parrot.
@@s1lverFoX how many deaths by knife vs. deaths by guns in usa? as for granny, if it's wild west in 18th century and she's alone in the wilderness, well yeah, give her a gun, but is she? also, i doubt gangs going around with knives and killing old people exist. but you DO have higher than average percentage of morons killing with guns, don't you?
I would like to gut him open. The smugness....he is happy to arrogantly claim that law abbiding people should have their rights restricted but dares not provide his data.
tomas fabbro from time to time, the tree of liberty must be watered... you know the rest.
But muh collectivist utopia!
I recently saw a similar post on UA-cam and the United States was approximately 40th for mass shootings in the world.
Bravo John! Excellent video. I wish the bulk of the Press was honest & objective.
Langford studied this for 40 years? He must have been 5 when he started studying this. Amazing guy.
maybe he meant the time span?
1966 to 2012 he said ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Uh, no… he means the data he researched was over a period of 40 years
"This works for our agenda, RUN IT"
I don't have time for FACTS and EVIDENCE of my research. I just know it's the right thing to do based on feelings and emotions.
Wait why does it sound familiar?
Cause it's probably the same justification that the shooters themselves use........
Because it's the same mantra of the Religious Right.
AOC, is that you?
I’m digging this John Stossel channel I recently discovered and subbed!! Keep up the solid work Mr Stossel!! Much love and respect brother!!
Furthermore if you factor Chicago, Memphis, Detroit, New Orleans, Baltimore, and East St. Louis out of the equation the US’ gun homicides virtually cease to exist. That’s right. The vast majority of unlawful gun violence all boils down to one community killing themselves. Sad but true.
There method of looking at anything is "Don't confuse me with the fact my mind is already made up".
Thank you, John! More pro-2a videos please! The fight is on, RIGHT NOW for the second amendment.
"Academic Malpractice"...damn, what a perfect term for this!
Love his (Lankford's) methodology, too (sic)... when I took statistics & research methods, I was taught, "if you can't prove it... then it doesn't exist"... here, you have, "I made up my own facts...I have my own truth despite evidence to the contrary"... pseudo-science at its finest!
Lankford is a liar and like many of his progressive ilk; manipulating and/or fabricating of facts & statistics to fit a political agenda is the norm!
It is amazing that it has been almost two years and I still hear people quote that garbage report. Journalism is at an all time low.
Some of the claims they make now about climate change are decades old. The 97% of climate scientist agree claim was first made 20 years ago. The claim that we have 12 years to reverse this was first made back in 1980, except it was just global warming and not climate change and that was a year after still making the claim of a coming ice age.
Wow, well done!
How did he get published without providing data for peer review!!!????. That's scientific method 101. What a hack. I'm sure they gave him tenure for this.
Thank you for this video, your research, and for standing up to the anti 2A insanity.
Here is the problem I have with Langford's so-called "academic study"...He claims he screened out shootings related to other crimes, genocide, and a couple of other factors. So, my question would be: Did he do that in the US study? Did he screen out Fort Hood's "workplace violence incident" or the Pulse's shooting?
The Left has been screaming for years that all these shooters are "right wing racist terrorists". Guess they don't really believe their own claims.
@John Stossel continuing to maintain journalistic integrity in 2019. Hats off to you, Sir.
200 shooting for ROW for 50 years is bogus.
Was he fired?
Great work gentleman. This is real journalism
Lankford needs to hear, “You’re fired!”
If he isnt gonna site his sources then his entire report is worthless.
Teacher: Lankford wheres your homework?
Lankford: i believe the question is did you even do your homework ?
It's so frustrating that no one is talking about this.
I wish this video was seen by everyone!
" Locks are for honest people." A metaphor of life.
So in other words...
Langford is a Low-down, No good liar!
It's Deplorable behavior like this that needs to be controlled./ ELIMINATED!
And this the reason why I refuse to watch the news.
No brainer there.

God bless John Stossel
I would like to know how politicians, media, etc can get away with making claims based off from one (1) single individual's research and not even consider the fact that the data is biased??
He should be discredited..
But, people are brainwashed into excepting lies over truths..
Fiction over facts.
Skewed journalism. Bias. Agendas. Shameful. QUESTION EVERYTHING.
Any "study" or "paper" that fails to provide enough data or details for someone else to repeat thier work is, and should be, automatically considered bogus. Someone else needs to repeat the work, providing those details, so that it can be verified. I believe this practice probably goes back to the biblical saying "By 2 or 3 witnesses shall every word be established."
Exactly right. Too many people simply accept such "studies" at face value, and think that if a professor or scientist published it, then it must be true, no matter what. And this Lankford character obviously understands that, and took advantage of it with his bogus "study".
But, but...then there would only be the truth to publish. lol
@@fredflintstone4715 Exactly, and that's not acceptable to anti-gun libs. Because when they're confronted with the truth, their entire narrative falls apart.
Thank you.
I love you John Stossel.
Now look at the mass murders in south africa, and "who's committing them"!!
White Men?
@@halaheleu7013 BLACKS
4:09 it's easy to miss that the number on the screen is the ranking, and not the number of deaths per 100,000
They did state the parameters of the study earlier. 4 or more killed per incident is what were counted .
In an attempt to not do the same thing, please provide links to your data.
@@slycubegamer thank you, I watched the vid pretty late and looked but missed it. I appreciate the response.
Is there any links?
@@jred7333 yes, I was curious to read the paper. There is a link to it in the description.
I could not have finished graduate school if I hadn't disclosed my sources!
Thank you John. You do a real public service!
He’s an associate professor. Other words , he’s adjunct. Stay in your lane kid
*FΛLSE...FLΛGS...*
*Make the sheep ask for their chains. -Stalin*
Excuse me but your facts are conflicting with my feelings I feel very subjugated and oppressed right now
Thank you John, very interesting....
And just like that, Langford becomes irrelevant. What a tool. Sad to see that his 15 minutes lasted way too long.
America has the most films every year too. Because they're good at staging things.
Yankford should be fired from the institution he works for. Professors of any kind, associate, assistant, or full, should understand that details and research must me accurate. For this fakefessor to not provide information from his "forty years" of research is unforgivable.
I would like to say that the people of Alabama do not accept Adam Lankford as one of our own.
Excellent videos! Thank you.
Wow, thanks for the info and the truth
And what about the studies that show that the mere presence of a firearm deters crime in the U.S.A. up to two million times a year!
Thanks for letting the TRUTH BE KNOWN!
John you are the only journalists left in America. How are you still alive?
Keep it up , honest reports from a man of your character is so rare anymore .
Excellent journalism!
Lankford should lose his PhD and his job!
