By my math, at this scale it would be one person shot roughly every 7 years. That’s still kinda scary.

That isn’t right. 1 in 400 means in 400 days everyone has been shot once

The number provided in the post is inaccurate to a real-world scale of US shootings. One person shot every seven years is instead accurate to real world data if the US population were scaled to 400 people.

What number do you have for the actual number? The number I found said 316 every day which makes it about 1 million years with population
