It is likely you have seen leftists jumping to TV and social media to claim that only white men commit mass shootings. But a compilation of mugshots of mass shooters proves the lie to the claim.
As leftists streamed to twitter in the wake of the mass shooting in Colorado, they universally blamed white me for all mass shootings.
But as the day wore on, scores of leftists were left scrambling after quickly hitting social media on Tuesday claiming that the shooter in Colorado was a “white supremacist” using an “assault weapon.” As the day wore on, officials reported that the killer was actually of Middle Eastern descent and used a handgun, not an “assault weapon.”
On March 23, Arvada, Colorado, resident Ahmad al Aliwi al Issa opened fire at a King Soopers grocery store killing ten people with a Ruger AR-556 semi-automatic pistol (a handgun version of the AR-15 rifle system).
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?
Not a white man. Not an assault rifle.
Despite their narrative being busted this week, leftists have continued to claim that only white men commit mass shootings.
But, Post Millennial Editor-at-Large Andy Ngo took the time to gather the mugshots of the mass killers from 2019 and 2020, and it turns out that you won’t find a sea of white faces there.
The suspects in American mass shootings (defined as four or more shot in a single incident) also look diverse for the 2020 data set. #Boulder #Atlanta pic.twitter.com/A9OgqaYpJH
