While the media has tried to paint whites as the only people who commit mass shootings the vast majority of mass shootings are orchestrated by non-whites. When you factor is percentage of population, whites are the lowest percentage of mass shooters of the big three.

Also, there are plenty of mass shooters that are never caught but you know snitches get stitches bs.

I'd say that's interesting but can you link these results?

It would be no less shocking than to discover roughly 13% of the population is responsible for majority of violent crime in America.

What is considered a mass shooting?

Because if it’s like 10 or more I know for a fact that it’s mostly white people

I’m chill I’m just in the business of being critical of race when it’s not a theory but fact.

I can show my work but that would only show the people arrested for mass shootings which still proves my point. However, the mass shootings that have unidentified assailants are typically done by drive by shootings.

Four or more people shot is a mass shooting.

It depends. And frankly it’s not publicized so that the statistics can be touted as why we need gun control and blaming the scary insane white reject. I believe its 4 or more according to the fbi

quote:

n the United States, there are several different, but common, definitions of mass shootings. The Congressional Research Service defines mass shootings, as multiple, firearm, homicide incidents, involving 4 or more victims at one or more locations close to one another. The FBI definition is essentially the same. Often there is a distinction made between private and public mass shootings (e.g., a school, place of worship, or a business establishment). Mass shootings undertaken by foreign terrorists are not included, no matter how many people die or where the shooting occurs.

The media long hid this fact by only calling mass shootings committed by white people as mass shootings. But since January they’ve begun calling all shootings of 3 or more people mass shootings.. even the ones they used to hide that happened in the ghetto.. in the name of gun control.

You'll need to show me stats before I believe this bc a simple internet search shows that this is not the case.

quote:

James Alan Fox, a criminologist at Northeastern University, maintains a database in collaboration with USA Today and the Associated Press that covers all mass shootings in the United States since 2006. When I asked him to analyze the data around incidents such as the Boulder massacre, he confirmed that about 55 percent of perpetrators in such incidents had been reported as White. (In some cases, race was unreported). Using a different dataset that ran from 1976 to 2019, with more inclusive criteria for inferring race, Fox found that some 64 percent of shooters were White.

FBI defines it as 4 or more shot at a single scene in a short period of time. But this still says nothing about motive, as not all "mass shootings" are the same.

The way I see it, there's three types of shootings:

1) Personal. This would include gang shootings, "going postal" at work, most school shootings, and murdering your family.

2) Random. This is the dude going into Wal-Mart, a concert, or a movie theater just because he wants to kill random people.

3) Terrorism. We see mass shootings from Muslims (and other groups) for religious/political reasons. Dylan Roof likely fits here as well.

Some shootings might go into more than one category. For example, the Ft. Hood guy was a Muslim Army doctor. He might have been motivated by both Islam and a personal motive against colleagues.

I think most people are interested in category #2 because there is no clear motive. It's totally random.

I'd say you're approaching critical mass

Kind of the key sentence to make the rest of it true.

This statistic is incredibly skewed because of one key detail. Targeted individuals.


Blacks attack random strangers at 1/3 the rate that whites do. This is FACTUAL.
