So we confirm what we've seen far too many times - IF there is a racial angle to be used, they will discuss the event ad infinitum. Hence, they're still talking about the Atlanta shooting - because it was a white guy who shot Asians (or more precisely, massage parlor workers) but have given up mostly on the Boulder shooter because he was Muslim who shot only white people.
Let me be abundantly clear - shootings are tragic - and we must find a solution better than just trying to grab guns. But something ELSE is going on here and has been for a long time. The press wants you to think of gun violence as being one way, loonie racist Trump supporting white guys with guns shooting people of color. You don't think so? Read the thread - and Twitter feeds about every shooting that turned out to NOT be a white guy. You think it's terrible that POC are slaughtered in inner city crime DAILY, and the press doesn't care? How about that - the press is interested in MAKING YOU MAD - so you'll buy their stuff. They haven't the slightest interest in reporting the news.
This is repulsive and people are dead and continue to die - and others CONTINUE to make a stink about race and BURY the story when it doesn't suit them. This won't solve the problem. You know, we have nearly as many people killed by drunk drivers each year as are killed in gun homicides - and we don't ban alcohol nor do we ban cars, because it punishes the wrong people. FIND a way to stop gun crime without disarming the 99.9% of people who have never pointed a gun at anyone and stop making some pointless case about race to advance an agenda that never stops the violence.
