Mass shootings happen in numerous countries, however, they usually tend to happen in countries with less gun control laws, causing higher levels of gun owners due to the fact the gun control laws are so out of control. The Gun Violence Archive recorded over 600 mass shootings in the United States in 2020. Also, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime reports that the global average intentional homicide rate in 2019 was about 6.1 per 100,000 population. With more gun control laws, these numbers would most likely drop drastically.
