So who are the shooters in that picture? What is their criteria for "mass shooter"? Identify them and the source it came from. You have to do better than to spread some internet meme and present it as fact.

[ETA] This is creating a false narrative. The cases we're talking about with one guy going apeshit and randomly executing people ARE young-ish white males aged 20-30 for the most part.

My thoughts as well.  The only time I was ever pulled over by a DPS car and there were two in the vehicle the 2nd trooper was very obviously a young gal who just got hired as she was just watching and learning as I talked to the old man.

EXACTLY. So ask yourself: "What is more likely":
1) The cops, investigators, etc are ALL in on it and not a single one comes forward to expose some cover-up, or
2) The facts are just as we're being told.

Occam's razor wins every time. The reason we don't know anything about the Las Vegas shooting is because there's nothing to know; the shooter really was an enigma that went nuts without any indication. Maybe the reason there's no information about this latest shooters is because releasing information would compromise the investigation. It is precisely because I trust most Americans to be decent and honest folks that I don't buy into conspiracy theory nonsense. There is no way to have potentially hundreds of people involved and ALL of them be corrupt and willing to suppress the "truth". Even if some of the people involved were to try to push an agenda, you couldn't silence all dissenters. Heck, the President of the US couldn't keep a soiled blue dress from making the news. It simply does not happen.

That's kind of the point with most all of these events.  The recent shooters were spoiled brats who were running up the score in their heads.  Insane behavior will never make sense to those who aren't crazy.

Las Vegas still doesn't pass the smell test.  The Sherriff was very disturbed by something other than the shootings.

I can't discount that many of these were left leaning crazies.

Two things stand out to me. One is that the shooter was known to police, and two that there were two troopers in the patrol vehicle that attempted to pull him over. Now I haven't lived in Texas in a few years and maybe things have changed, but I never saw more than one Trooper riding in a DPS marked patrol vehicle.

Maybe this guy that was known to police was under surveillance and this was a planned arrest by using the "pull him over for a traffic violation" ruse that the police sometimes use to arrest someone they have been surveilling. That would explain why the 2 troopers in the vehicle.

Then the traffic stop goes to shit when he starts shooting at them before stopping and the guy then proceeds to go on a shooting rampage in traffic while fleeing. If this was a planned take down of a criminal under investigation then this is going to cause a bit of a sticky situation for the DPS and a lot of questions and second guessing by the media.

Maybe they need time to figure out how to lay it all out for the public to not make it look like the cop's fault. And I'm not saying it was their fault that this guy went full retard when they tried to pull him over.

Of course this is just speculation on my part but it's the only thing I can figure so far tha makes sense.
This scenario makes sense to me.
The fact that there were two DPS troopers in one car is very unusual.  I don't think I have ever witnessed that.

I'd say 9 counts of attempted murder is a pretty good go at it.

That's literally the definition of "mass shooter", brother. I don't know what else to tell you. You seem determined to believe that whites are the problem, so... you do you.

There is a distinct difference between gang and/or drug related shootings and the ones that are 'spree shootings' done by lunatics just to amass a body count.

The vast majority of the first type mass shooters aren't killing strangers just to be killing people. Those shitheads have a grudge against somebody that has most likely ripped them off or for financial gain.

The second type is just some disaffected lunatic going out and shooting strangers just to amass a body count. They seek recognition, not retribution (usually).

Denying such a difference exists has become a method used by the anti-gunners to pump up the numbers and attribute all shootings of 4 or more persons as the 'spree shooting' type.

Of the past 10 of these 'spree shootings' of strangers (just to be killing people)....which ones weren't committed by white men?

I'd wager that you stand a better chance of getting hit by lightning that to be shot by a 'spree shooter' with an AR-15.

4 or more people. That's a pretty low threshold. Another reason it doesn't hold water is because most of them - as far as I can tell - had some kind of motive that "makes sense". Robbery. Domestic violence. Drug deal gone wrong. I'm not excusing the level of violence, but we're talking about mass shooters in terms of a guy with no relation to the victims just blowing his top and going out in a blaze of glory. The other people on that list don't fit the bill. Call it a societal problem to ignore the others, but we tend to over-dramatize things we don't understand, like a guy driving from Dallas to El Paso and shooting a bunch of people in Wal Mart. That is inherently more scary than a gang-related shooting where 4 people are killed.
View Quote
Agree with him or not, Zhuk makes a lot of good points. Significant difference between domestic violence/drug/crime related shootings that total over four victims, and the premeditated public shoot-em-ups of whoever happens to be out and about that day.

That distinction has one upside...it makes the true rage/insanity driven mass shootings even rarer than they appear...if only it was reported that way. Lumping every four victim homicide into the "deranged killer with an semi-auto" category bolsters the ban argument, and diverts attention away from the "we have a serious inner-city crime issue".

We're doing a poor job of framing the reality, or, maybe to be more accurate, the progressives/MSM are doing a better job hyping their agenda.

The point they're trying to make is that it's an obvious concern-troll account.  If you don't see that, then maybe we need more site staff that aren't blind.

In any case, despite not being rampage style shootings, shooters of multiple people are overwhelmingly non-white.   The left is taking shooting numbers including those people and dishonestly attributing it to white males.    

And the white males that ARE actually rampage shooters, overwhelmingly are non-conservatives who are either known to law enforcement or who had their impending actions reported, sometimes multiple times, to agencies - like the FBI - who did NOTHING.

You want to whine about people bringing up antifa?  We've had 3 antifa shooting incidents in the last year, including one attack on a federal facility and a public mass shooting.  There have also been several attempted bombings, several incidents involving brandished weapons, and a few other fed buildings shot at that they're likely responsible for.

Edit:

And now we have another one, with the DHS facility they just tried to burn down.

Snopes and their weasel words:
The primary problem with the chart was that it was based on a relatively broad definition of “mass shooting” which, while valid in and of itself, should not be confused with the much more narrow definition implicitly at work in many conversations about “mass shootings” — that is, incidents in which an attacker with no links to terrorism, criminal gangs, or organized crime goes out into a public area and fatally shoots multiple people.

[ETA] This is creating a false narrative. The cases we're talking about with one guy going apeshit and randomly executing people ARE young-ish white males aged 20-30 for the most part.
So you only care about random white people deaths?
Those other victims do not count.
Ok.

But I noticed people on here can talk about the ghetto this and ghetto that.??

I'd say 9 counts of attempted murder is a pretty good go at it.

I wonder if that fits Zhukov's standard for a mass shooting. Of course it's barely in the news for some reason.
Wait WUT!!??

He seemed to have a numerical threshold that some shootings didn't meet.

I don't get your point.

"We have a problem with white male Mass Shooters" - This statement is false ,the facts (statistics) say otherwise.

"the opioid epidemic..." - What does this have to do with this post about the shooting in Texas or mass shooting?

"..Pander and intellectually masturbate.." - Pander to who? As for intellectually masturbating, well isn't that what your doing with this nonsensical post.

Why are you here (this gun website)?

Anyone have an update of what's come out this morning other than Zhukov not understanding white guys aren't the ones committing most of the mass shootings?
