There is not a “clear epidemic” of trans/non-binary people committing mass shootings in the U.S. About 1.8% of the U.S. adult population identifies as transgender or non-binary, while 1.5% of mass shootings have been committed by self-identified trans or non-binary adults. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/06/07/about-5-of-young-adults-in-the-u-s-say-their-gender-is-different-from-their-sex-assigned-at-birth/
