RS1 Posted August 6, 2019 at 01:30 PM Share Posted August 6, 2019 at 01:30 PM Gang on gang violence doesn't scare people any more. It takes a random mass shooting to get those ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POAT54 Posted August 6, 2019 at 02:52 PM Share Posted August 6, 2019 at 02:52 PM MSM like the democratic social parties, do not not care about any life, especially those of color unless they can use it to divide this country. 55 people shot in chiraq last weekend is of no value to the divide plan.

Flynn Posted August 6, 2019 at 08:26 PM Share Posted August 6, 2019 at 08:26 PM Wonder way didnt see on GMA about the shooting in ****-cago this week end???????????? Because it doesn't fit the culture war narrative the liberal main stream media is pushing. I have been watching the 'liberals' on my social media these last few days and what they have been sharing and posting, about 99% of their post are about the El Paso shooting and how white male supremacist terrorism is the cause of mass shootings and the problem facing America. Honestly it's all about the El Paso shooting because it fits the narrative, it took a full 24 hours before I even saw a single post about the Ohio shooting and that post was basically 'Another white guy kills people' totally void of all the other parts that doesn't fit the canned narrative, and when someone attempted to point out that individual was a leftist and socialist they were attacked by multiple others for 'spreading fake right wing conspiracies' Same thing with the garlic festival shooter, maybe a random post here and there about a white male terroist, but don't dare point out that the guy was Italian/Iranian, as that doesn't fit their narrative so it's refuted.

JTHunter Posted August 7, 2019 at 03:20 AM Share Posted August 7, 2019 at 03:20 AM Flynn - have you noticed on social media how the leftys seem to be ignoring the Dayton shooter? I've seen reports that he was a lefty himself and a Warren supporter so he doesn't fit their "narrative". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mentioned that above "it took a full 24 hours before I even saw a single post about the Ohio shooting and that post was basically 'Another white guy kills people' totally void of all the other parts that doesn't fit the canned narrative, and when someone attempted to point out that individual was a leftist and socialist they were attacked by multiple others for 'spreading fake right wing conspiracies' " FYI the leftist, socialist, E. Warren, pro open borders, anti-ICE anti-Trump, anti-Cop were all things gleaned from the Datyon shooters own Twitter feed, hardly fake news or conspiracies.

soundguy Posted August 7, 2019 at 01:09 PM Share Posted August 7, 2019 at 01:09 PM Stop fighting “the culture war”. It’s very possible that this polarization is what leads folks to become terrorists. Let it go. Get along with those who’s opinions you disagree with. Work for what’s right. Eliminate hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou Posted August 7, 2019 at 01:29 PM Share Posted August 7, 2019 at 01:29 PM I was reading an article on the different definitions of Mass Shooting from different sources and noted that one source did not include gang related shootings in their statistics. Seeing as how most gangs are minorities isnt this racist? Lott and Landes (2000) excluded any felony-related shooting, and Duwe, Kovandzic, and Moody (2002) excluded incidents where both the victims and offender(s) were involved in unlawful activities, such as organized crime, gang activity, and drug deals (p. 276). https://www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/analysis/essays/mass-shootings.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Lazy researchers may fail to filter results to avoid including inner city shootings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They quote the "251 mass shootings in 2019" number but then only talk about the 9 or so Mass Shootings that fit the narrative. Dayton, Gilroy, etc. Never Englewood, Garfield Park, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted August 8, 2019 at 07:24 PM Share Posted August 8, 2019 at 07:24 PM They all cherry pick data, this site is not perfect but it's far less biased than most and includes the domestic and gang shootings that most ignore because it doesn't fit a narrative they desire to push. What the site makes clear if you are honest, is that the near daily gang/domestic shootings are a far bigger problem than the isolated rampage, and that most of those gang/domestic shootings are commited with pistols by minorities, an inconvient truth many choose to ignore, because it doesn't fit the crazy white guy with 'assault rifle' narrative. https://www.massshootingtracker.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
