After Gilroy: Mass shootings a white thing? Oh, hell, no

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog...j0F8qs.twitter

Quote:
“Even before the final butcher’s bill was presented for the Sunday-night mass shooting in Gilroy, the blue checkers and talking heads were filling their platforms with fairy tales that most mass shooters are white.

“But in the two-week run-up to Gilroy, there were 36 other mass shootings from coast to coast — and 34 of those shooters were black. One was white and one Hispanic. These results echo a New York Times story from 2016 that stated, much to the surprise and chagrin of the reporters, that whenever there are three or more victims of gunfire, 75 percent of shooters in America are black.”

“The day after the Gilroy shooting, Mayor Bill de Blasio was fielding questions from reporters about whether the Gilroy shooting resembled some of the recent mass shootings in New York, such as Brooklyn Saturday night. Not all, said de Blasio. “We don’t really count them that way.””

Here ya go... key word DEALER


FEDERAL FIREARMS LAWS

Again, how would you regulate person to person sales in a garage? Answer, you can't.


Let's go back to square one. Where in any of these articles did it say one of these shooters were exempt from buying a gun?

Completely nuts.


YOU think so. Many, many people think Trump, his rallies in which he revs up racism, and his comments about minorities and illegal (or legal) immigrants cause these crazy people to go out and kill “the other.” Trump generates hate.

The “dark web” internet sites also incite mentally deficient people to act out their hatred and self-loathing because they find like-minded crazies to encourage them to kill.

Why do people hate minorities? Those racist people need to think about WHY they feel that way. Is it because their lives haven’t turned out the way they had hoped? Is it because they are losing their grip on reality? Is it because America has changed? Yes, America has changed, but your hate will not change it back. Neither will mass shootings. Heal your own problems and figure out why you have this hate in your heart.

He should be ashamed of himself. He may be selling guns to mentally deficient people who will kill an innocent person—or many people.

How do you enforce person to person sales? AK garage sales. I'm not going to keep asking the question if you don't have an answer.


These people were LEGAL to purchase. No new ridiculous law would change that.

He gets ID and permit info and issues a bill of sale. There are some mentally deficient people that can get a permit too.
