But outside of that, it is kind of dismissive to ignore the shootings at churches, schools, parades and theaters by white males.
By that logic, rich people of color wouldn’t move right next to white people the first chance they get. Even BLM has all their property in white areas.
You can demonize whites all you want, but reality begs to differ.
People of color move closer to white people, not the other way around.
Most "mass shootings" are done by black gang members in the inner city. Simple truth.

I think it is fair to say the 'gang' stuff is gang on gang, shooting themselves. Though still qualify as 'mass'.
But these schools, parades, etc,..are targeting normal folk who are not involved. Innocents. Just like individual crimes and murders. So the type that affect 'innocents' are a bigger deal, news-wise.
Mass shootings have more of an effect because what it does is terrorize the public. Your typical gang shootings are segregated to lousy parts of urban cites most can accept that. If we continue to have these random mass shootings could see more gun control measures.
Agreed. The shooter was probably some anti-American that hates the country and the American Flag so went there to kill those that celebrated the country. Lefties hate the country and our flag and the 4th of July. They hate America.
I love my country. I always have. I love her so much I wanted to fight for her. When I was a senior in high school I tried to enlist. At the MEPS, after my physical I was told I have flat feet, and couldn't serve. I was devastated. My recruiter fought like hell to get a waiver. I couldn't get one.
I am also a liberal. Someone you would consider a "lefty".
Kinda tells you than gun control laws aren’t the answer, doesn’t it?
My point is this not a liberal issue or conservative issue, but an American issue instead. Gun control laws is not the cure all, but we do need laws in place. I also know that us fighting back and forth with each isn't solving any problems either. It's going to take both sides working together to try to figure this thing out.
