Yeah, he was way off. According to that chart, there were 38 mass shootings in the U.S. between 2009 - 2013. The closest to the U.S. is Germany with...3. The chart does make a point about mass shootings per capita, but still...38 vs. 3 or less.

So if you want to hold President Obama to a strict interpretation of his words then, yes, he was wrong. It does happen in other countries, but nowhere near as frequently. Is the point that we need not worry about the high rate of shootings here, or do we really only care about semantics?
