I get your point, but serial killers and mass shooters tend to be white and mentally ill. Non white serial killers/ mass shooters also tend to be mentally ill.

Most homicides, according to the latest FBI statistics, tend to be committed by black men aged 17-50. That 3% of the population commits 52% of the homicides in this nation, but cant understand why law enforcement officers tend to shoot this demographic more compared to other races in highly confrontational situations.

As soon as I saw what the shooter looked like and his demeanor, I knew he was a victim of bullying.

“ABSOLUTELY NOT MAKING EXCUSES”

But to be bullied by both students and faculty has to be hard.

World War II showed that there is nothing worse than an angry white man.

could the reason for not many school shootings in predominantly black schools be because most of these schools have metal detectors at entrances?


I'm pretty sure metal detectors aren't the grand solution to ending school shootings.

What is availability heuristic psychology?
The availability heuristic is a mental shortcut that relies on immediate examples that come to a given person's mind when evaluating a specific topic, concept, method or decision.

No because people with a brain use facts and statistics to make determinations.

It is racial profiling. My point is that it isn't bad


Yes. It’s also an educated guess based on experience.

Obviously, but have armed guards at the entrances with metal detectors can’t seem to hurt.? You must have not set foot in a school in 20 years

I'm not seeing the dilemma here.
The dilemma is that no one has a problem with that in these situation, but the world explodes with calls of “racism” in situations where it is statistically more likely to be another race.
