(379 posts)Seems not to be that unusual. The Boulder shooter wasn't white either. You know who was white though all 10 of his victims.

(379 posts)you made an assumption. You were wrong. You were given another example of a non white mass shooter. Yet I am supposed to check my bias. Right. You make the assumption and where wrong. That is the very definition of showing bias.

Have a lovely day.

(379 posts)This was never about anything I said. You made the claim and got called out on your bias. Perhaps this could be a moment of reflection for you.

Does not make sense.
