    I've seen a lot of things lately claiming mass shootings are predominantly carried out by whites. I guessed it would probably be right.

    I thought I would do a little investigating so I decided to search Google for pictures of mass shooters from previous years and found this for 2019. There is also one for 2020 which follows the same trend?

    "The suspects in American mass shootings (defined as four or more shot in a single incident). "


    What am I missing? I was expecting them all to be white?

    Did I somehow mess up my search criteria because the results seem very diverse to me?

    Don't know the validity of the source, but it seems the group that is predominantly committing mass shootings is men!

    And America definitely has a gun problem!

    Whites are generally better shots and thus kill more people per shooting incident. Shouldn't take too much to figure that out.

    "Race of mass shooters reflects the U.S. population
    Broadly speaking, the racial distribution of mass shootings mirrors the racial distribution of the U.S. population as a whole. While a superficial comparison of the statistics seems to suggest African American shooters are over-represented and Latino shooters underrepresented, the fact that the shooter’s race is unclear in around five percent of cases, along with the different time frames over which these statistics are calculated means no such conclusions should be drawn. Conversely, looking at the mass shootings in the United States by gender clearly demonstrates that the majority of mass shootings are carried out by men."


    The bit regarding race in your source. I think the most common factor is men.

    Race has zero effect on the ability to shoot. Disregarding superficial categorisation were are all pretty much exactly the same.

    I don't have an account with them so I can't see the source data.

    Same. That's why I asked because I couldn't see how they were determining a mass shooter.

    It's not a belief it's a way of of life. I can't change who I am anymore those days are gone.

    you are correct.
    Also it is in white genetics to be killers/hunters. According to scripture the white nations are descended from Edom, who was a killer. Black americans are by nature farmers since they descend from Jacob (Israel) according to scripture.
