You just did exactly what I'm talking about... trying to divide people by changing mass shooters and assassins to "gun violence generally" to make this about race. I stated a fact about mass shooters. Trump is the one trying to ban a specific group from gun ownership, not me.

Well said

Mass shooters, not counting gang violence, are defined as public shootings with 4+ deaths.

The Violence Project found that of 172 mass public shooters from 1966-2019, 97.7% were male and 52.3% were white https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/articles/public-mass-shootings-database-amasses-details-half-century-us-mass-shootings

NPR reports that 98% of mass shooters are male, with white men disproportionately responsible for mass shootings more than any other group. https://www.npr.org/2021/03/27/981803154/why-nearly-all-mass-shooters-are-men

According to Wikipedia citing multiple studies, "Public mass shootings of persons unrelated to the shooter, and for a reason not connected with a previous crime (the rarest but most publicized) are committed by men whose racial distribution closely matches that of the nation as a whole." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_shootings_in_the_United_States

But when you look at who's actually pulling the trigger in these planned public attacks... school shootings, workplace shootings, church shootings—it's overwhelmingly cisgender men, mostly white.

Gang violence is a different category with different demographics and different solutions... those are typically conflicts between people who know each other.

I'm talking about the people who plan to kill random strangers in public places. Look at who actually attempts assassinations. Trump's trying to ban 2% of the population, but the patterns show who's really doing it.

“Mass shootings” in America is firing upon an innocent group of kids/people who had no idea and/or no connection to shooter.

Gang violence is something accepted among the gangs as a part of the life.

Huge difference and she is correct…which doesn’t mean she is racist.

The way some people reacted to this event was truly revealing, and a few showed an aspect of themselves that can’t be overlooked. I don’t have any more to say about this, except it has changed my opinion of them. I suppose I should be grateful for this knowledge.
