more evidence about who's shooting who in this piece sent by a friend;
Around the same time that the media was focused on the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, 60 people were shot in Chicago over the weekend. 24 of those people were shot in four hours.
Baltimore reached its 200th murder victim of the year during its “Ceasefire Weekend”.
4 people were killed in 4 days in Kansas City. 6 men were shot in Philly during the filming of a rap video.
Even in Toronto, 15 people were wounded in shootings over the weekend. Over 350 people have been shot this year in the Canadian city which has gun control, no NRA, and none of the usual excuses.
This tide of violence has received less media coverage because it
challenges the false claim that, as a CNN op-ed once put it, mass
shootings are a “white man’s problem.”
"I would say our
country should be more fearful of white men across our country because
they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country," Rep.
Ilhan Omar claimed on Al Jazeera.
"We have to stop
demonizing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country
is white men," Don Lemon had previously claimed on CNN.
"White Men Have Committed More Mass Shootings Than Any Other Group," Newsweek had argued.
The perception that mass shootings are a “white man’s problem” lingers
around the country because white mass shooters tend to get more
publicity. And, the twisted young male who goes on a public shooting
spree fits a certain kind of media narrative. But when we actually study
the mass shootings that took place in 2019, it’s clear that Patrick
Crusius and Connor Betts are not the norm, but aberrations...........https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/274538/51-mass-shooters-2019-were-black-only-29-were-daniel-greenfield?fbclid=IwAR35N_Ll0pC4ydl-eFV-MPaw4HAbgyk9mlP0IsdWPLAf92DbpaWGUYmOti0
