Mass shootings in major metropolitan areas in the United States disproportionately affect Black people, and structural racism may play a role, according to a study published on Wednesday in the journal JAMA Surgery.
Researchers at Tulane University analyzed data relating to the 51 largest metropolitan areas, including demographic and income data as well as reports of mass shootings from 2015 to 2019 compiled by the Gun Violence Archive, a non-profit organization that tracks gun violence in the US.
CNN and the Gun Violence Archive define a mass shooting as a shooting that injured or killed four or more people, not including the shooter.
The study found that in areas with higher Black populations, mass shootings are likelier to occur compared to communities with higher White populations. There are also more Black people injured and killed when mass shootings take place, the findings say.

Nope. Climate change.
You don’t say? Gee, I suppose Chicago would be surprised at the results of this study!
How come there is so much black on black shootings. I would bet that the vast majority of Blacks being killed are by other Blacks. If a White person shoots a Black, I would wager that the majority of the time it is in self-defense.
Structural racism.
Sixty years, and they go through ever more mental gymnastics to explain black underperformance, in ways that absolves blacks from having to do anything to change themselves.
Mass shootings: another term for “gang warfare”.
Democrat ghettos ..democrat welfare... democrat low expectations...basically democrats are to blame for 60% of whats wrong with the U.S. RINOs and Neocons for to blame for another 20%. And another 20% are just plain clueless (non registered democrats.
so basically everything is whiteys fault....ergo....kill whitey....its an endless broken record
I’m not surprised to hear that. You can’t ignore the explosion of black on white crime taking place
One thing all of those have in common is someone is recording and posting the video on social media.
Easy - No respect for human life and no moral code, IOW, uncivilized
Is structural racism is supposedly built in racism...the idea that it is practically part of our DNA? ..whereas systemic racism is where all the institutions are racist in order to keep the black man down?
Libtards want race wars they encourage blacks to attack and then pay their bail just like antifa
There is no such thing. These words are just more vapors from Satan's rectum.

Betcha all these shootings in Chicago would stop the day after the last white person left Chicago.
Underlying it all, is the idea that we are all racist
Yet are morally obligated to act an an “anti racist” manner in order to benefit blacks.
They would be flummoxed if we just said “no” and stopped caring.
It’s because of boiling warming.
Racism isn’t on God’s Top Ten List.
