well, lets assume we only count school shootings, the average school having 500+ students, each year there should around be +25.000 people who have witnessed a school shooting. the average age being 40 in america you can increase that number to lets say 1mil people who have witnessed a school shooting, as a gross estimate. yeah 1/15th is gonna be tough to reach even if you added all other mass shootings as i doubt they have 500+ witnesses each time. youre probably right

considering theres an average of 1 school shooting per week and another couple hundred of mass shootings per year in america, it seems quite believable to me, especially since one shooting can have hundreds of witnesses.
