    Your claim:

    “The UK, as well as every other European country, doesn't have a huge minority population like the U.S. does.”

    You are wrong. The numbers don’t support you.

    Yes, if you add the words per capita. Which I didn’t do as I was talking about the typical mass shooter. Which is a white male.

    If you want to talk about racial disparities we can but trying to alter what is typical on a national scale is moving the goalposts at best, more likely a desire to deflect from the facts.

    People looking to do more than troll often ask for sources so they can look at the information from the prospective of the individual they are having the discussion with.

    60% of Americans are white. 13% of Americans are black. You need to look up the definition of "significantly".

    What I said in the first gawd damned place.

    Draconian firearms laws keep people from exercising their right to possess legally obtained firearms.

    Thus rendering your "pont" meaningless.
    The fact, in raw numbers, whites engage in (x) more than any other racial demographic is not a surprise but EXPECTED, because whites comprise about 76% of the population.
    Thus, the ONLY meaningful measure here IS per capita.
    And YOU proved that , per capita, the typical perpetrator of a mass shooting is a black male.
    Well done.

    Um... no. I don't.

    66 of 122 - 54.1% - shooting were perpetrated by whites. 76% of Americans are white. 40% under-represetation
    21 of 122 - 17.2% - were perpetrated by blacks. 13.4% of Americans are black. 28% over-representation.
    https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST045219

    Both of those numbers, by any relevant definition of the word, are significant.

    Good of you to concede the fact you only care about mass shootings so far as you can use the victims for political gain.

    You cannot demonstrate your "political gains will save ANY lives - and you do not care.

    Wrong. 60% of Americans are white not including Hispanic or Latino

    Did you hear about the mass shooting in Kenosha last night? Some black gang banger went to a white suburban neighborhood and massacred some white people at a bar. You won't be hearing much about this on the MSM. Inner city blacks traveling to suburban neighborhoods and killing white people is swiftly becoming the new normal in Wisconsin. All of this hatred of whites pimped by the MSM is really starting to pay off.

    You're right, the easy availability of guns is a major problem in the US

    My demonstration is quite simple.

    My arguments against guns are exactly the same as those of the US Army when they forbid the carrying of firearms on military bases.

    The point — what was being discussed — is that the average mass shooter is a white male. Typical means representative, it has nothing to do with per capita.

    Let me break it down in metrics you might can understand: you have six apples, four green and two red — it would be accurate to say the typical is green. Instead you are trying to say the typical is red because they are bigger.

    We are not discussing per capita, well — you are because that is the only defense you have.

    The majority of mass shooters, the typical, are white males.

    So?

    You act as if the complete and total objective should be that everyone possesses all the firearms they possibly can

    If you want to discuss that feel free to make a new thread on the subject. This thread is about a mass murder in the workplace.

    I know, so many threads... it can be hard to keep up with. I am glad you enjoy the site however, here hoping you figure out how to stay on topic.
