First, we need to establish the proportion of transgender people in the United States. An August 2025 report from the UCLA School of Law Williams Institute estimated that about 1% of Americans 13 or older identify as transgender, which is about 2.8 million people. That lines up with other general estimates of the U.S. transgender population.
There were 195 mass shootings committed by 200 people between 1966 and 2024 that met the VPP's definition. Of those 200 mass shooters, VPP only listed one perpetrator as transgender: the 2023 Nashville shooter. That's 0.50% of all the shooters.
The VPP's data said 192 of the shooters were non-transgender male, which was 96% of all shooters. Men who are not transgender make up about 47% of the U.S. population, according to USAFacts, using Census data.
Summary:
- 0.5% of shooters are trans and they are 1% of the population
- 96% of shooters are cis men and they are 47% of the population
Welp, guess we need to lock up every single dude, huh?
