I think so too - most of the black shooters are probably gang-related. Look at them! They look like extras from some Wesley Snipes movie. (And if some DUmmie is reading this and taking screenshots with glee thinking they’ve ‘proven’ FR is racist, two ooints for ya - (a) I am black and (b) they really do look like extras in a B-rated Wesley Snipes movie).
I think if one filtered away any shootings above 4 people that were gang-related, that the shooter demographic would probably change a lot. A whole lot.
Also, if there were as many black shooters targeting malls and schools and shooting victims they do not know (as opposed to gang-related shooters targeting people/neighborhoods they know due to gang strife), I am sure media that are pro-truth/conservatives would report on it. CNN and MSNBC would not, but the likes of Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson would definitely report on it.
Anyway, I would also say that most shooters targeting over 4 people are black. That is accurate. But I think it would also be accurate that most of those are gang-related. After all, there’s even a FReeper who posts every Monday the gang-related shootings in Chicago. Every weekend people are shot in that one city alone to support a thread.
Strip away gang-related activity - and focus on the people who go to malls and schools and fairs and shoot at random strangers - and I would bet good money the racial profile of that picture would significantly change.
Take the profit motive out of drugs, and the murder rate will drop by more than half. So would burglaries and robberies.
You make a good point but I think one would need to examine the details of every case to prove: it could be argued the latest Ohio shooter (white) targeted people he knew - the first victims being his sister and her boyfriend and a local bar.
The most obvious disparity is between male / female.
Wesley Snipes was in some good flicks.
True many mass shootings are gang related, but many of those victims were simply in the way or caught in the cross fire and weren’t part of the gangs or were mistaken as gang members. If Antifa members are starting to do more shootings, I wouldn’t see them any differently than I would see MS-13.
They may be shooting at members of another gang but quite frequently hit children and bystanders.
All of these alleged facts concerning the races and motivations of the shooters are interesting but none of them change the basic fact mass shooters are NOT predominantly white. That said, I think anyone positively identified as having committed such a crime should be tried, convicted, sentenced to death, and publicly hanged within a month of apprehension. No consideration of motive, no appeal, and no exceptions.
Maybe, but the statistic the media is reporting includes all of those incidents as "mass shootings", I think something like 300 mass shootings this year, so they are including all of these in the statistic which is reported on over and over and over and that makes it seem by the shootings which are focused on that the 300 shooters would be predominantly young white males.
How many people in the photos of that graphic would we be able to match to the mass shooting?
Good post, and valid point. The biggest murder problem we have in these United States comes from urban black gang members. I guess that would be a where we should concentrate our resources to get rid of the murderers.
