The relevant factor in this tragedy is not the race of the perpetrator, nor is it his age.
The relevant factor....is the scumbag somehow got paroled from prison after being convicted of beating his 92 yr old grandmother to death!
This has nothing to do with gun laws either. As a convicted felon, he was already prohibited from buying or posessing a gun. A man with the premeditated intent to commit murder is not going to concern himself with whether or not he violates any gun laws while committing that murder.
This man was not a gun owner. He was a convicted murderer who had no right to own a gun and who should have been rotting away in prison for his crime instead of being free to commit another.
Race has EVERYTHING to do with these kinds of shootings. For a hundred years, blacks, hispanics and asians have had it bad. We have seen what its like to be poor, grow up poor, not able to find jobs, not be allowed in schools and colleges, being separated from WHITE businesses and establishments and such.
We as minorities have seen it all, but what we havent seen, is those minorities going around settling our problems at the end of a gun barrel. Yes, gangs have guns, but they dont shoot up schools, malls , churches and our protectors in ambushes.
Gangs may kill each other for drugs or money, but that is what they were set up to do.
Whites on the other hand, since the civil rights act was passed, have gone on the rampage with the very tools they hold dearly to their hearts.
As Whites find themselves in the same situations as minorities had it for decades, we are seeing that they cant handle being poor, unemployed or cheated on.
Whites are turning to the gun as the ultimate problem solver. Name a problem and whites seem to have the same answer, shoot their way out of it, then kill themselves.
Ill say this again, gun owners are cowards. Look at the mass shootings and examine the facts. Body armor, assault weapons, mulitiple guns, hundreds of rounds, mulitiple clips loaded to the max, camoflauge, boots and extra guns in the car. The similarities are striking in each but one stands out from the rest.
Once they feel cornered, or their "courage" jams and it cannot be fired anymore, then they kill themselves.
The most common theme lately is the suicide that ends the rampage.
Gun nuts dont want to "factor" in the gun into the calculation of a rampage, but it plays the largest part. In this last shooting of innocent UNPAID firemen, the guns factored in greatly as DISTANCE was the advantage this shooter had with his "rifles".
This shooter hated the world for whatever reason, and I dont care why, but someone had access to guns and this shooter got his hands on them. Maybe his family felt the same as the rest of you, and kept them loaded and under a pillow unsecured and he merely retrieved them.
Either way, white men are causing these shooting rampages with more frequency and it needs to be addressed before we become somalia.
