#388Yeah that would be extremely ignorant
theGRIO REPORT - The percentage of black assailants who kill on a scale such as Monday's Navy Yard shootings is about equal to the percentage of black Americans, says former FBI profiler Clint Van Zandt...
The deadly shooting spree by a 34-year-old Texas man, Aaron Alexis, on Monday, shook Washington D.C. The African-American civilian contractor to the U.S. Navy killed 12 people before being shot to death by police. And while the focus of the investigation shifts to the question of “why,” how common are African-American mass shooters in the U.S.?
Of the approximately 62 mass shootings (in which four or more people were killed) in the U.S. since 1982, including 25 since 2006 (and seven in 2012 alone), according to figures compiled by Mother Jones, “more than half of the cases involved school or workplace shootings (12 and 20, respectively); the other 30 cases took place in locations including shopping malls, restaurants, and religious and government buildings. Forty four of the killers were white males. Only one of them was a woman.”
The percentage of black assailants who kill on a scale such as Monday’s Navy Yard shootings is about equal to the percentage of black Americans, says former FBI profiler Clint Van Zandt.
“African-American shooters tend to at least represent their statistical portion of the U.S. population and include past killers like like Omar S. Thornton, Maurice Clemmons, Charles Lee Thornton, William D. Baker, Arthur Wise, Clifton McCree, Nathan Dunlap, Colin Ferguson, and the DC Snipers, John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo,” Van Zandt told theGrio.
Of course this article was written before black male Emanuel Kidega Samson shot up a Nashville church stopping only to accidentally shoot himself. Never heard of him? Probably because the mass media largely ignored it.Comment -

#390I really don't think people bring up Chicago to insult blacks the vast majority of the time. It's more about exposing the hypocrisy and absurdity of the current narrative being pushed of police murdering blacks.Comment -

#393Looks like this attack was planned out for a few days. He even had some type of surveillance cameras set up. Lot of rumors running around about the motive.Comment -

#398So he is a grandfather with no criminal record, no ties to any militant groups, was an accountant and a licensed pilot.
What could possibly make someone do something so horrific?Comment -

#413Seems unlikely, the Isis thing. He sued a casino a few years ago and it was thrown out.Comment -

#415FAKE NEWS...
The guy did not convert to Islam. Are you guys serious? He was a wealthy guy in Nevada who LOVED to gamble.
He probably went bust and snapped.Comment -

#418What pisses me off about homegrown terrorism is that the assholes like ISIS are cheering this shit on.
They probably cheer on natural disasters that take lives also. Tornadoes, hurricanes, floods and the like.Comment -

#420Why does everyone assume that this attack had anything to do with politics, what happened to the usual reasons? The dude might have worked for Mandalay Bay and got fired and went postal, maybe his old lady left him for another guy and he found out they were gonna be at the concert, maybe he really hates country music, maybe he's crazy and the voices in his head told him to do it, maybe he dropped some acid and got paranoid and freaked out, maybe he got himself into a deep hole gambling and decided to go out in a blaze.
Everybody seems to try to make everything fit their agendas, not everything that happens has anything to do with Trump, Hillary, Obama, Putin... Sometimes people are just crazy on their own and don't need politics to show it.Comment
