Two men are in custody after their celebratory New Year’s gunfire cut power to an area of southeast Fresno early Thursday morning, police report.
Tommy San, 19, and David Lay, 26, were booked on charges of negligent discharge of firearms
At the Fresno Bee.
I got embroiled in a debate with an Afroracist re subject of serial killers, needless to say he was utterly predictable and kept resorting to name calling and trying to switch the subject when I confronted him with actual facts. One tactic was to change the subject to mass/spree killers, in which he claimed it was absolute fact that it's all white men ("everybody" knows it - everybody = racist blacks!). He sent me a link to a Mother Jones article that purported to list all mass shooters since 1982. According to the article 62 mass shootings were committed in that time period. As I scanned through the list I immediately noted a number of glaring omissions, I also noted that the omissions were virtually all non white shooters. Well, this is Mother Jones so we can't be too surprised at that though the article does preface right at the beginning with this:
ReplyDelete"There have been at least 69 in the last three decades—and most of the killers got their guns legally.
Then below that it states this:
Here is a timeline of the 62 mass shootings in the United States, from 1982 through 2012.
This is one of those mealy mouthed deceptive liberal manipulations that make you want to scream. If I were to point out that there were missing names on the list they would probably say: Well, we did say there were actually 69 not 62, so left ourselves some wiggle room in terms of accuracy.
Then if I pointed out the names omitted were all non white shooters they would undoubtedly say: "You're a racist."
Yeah, I know drill, though there are actually more than 7 missing mass shooter names so it's still inaccurate. I compiled a list of non white mass shooters since 1982, names of shooters that would have made the Mother Jones list much more "multi-cultural" and being the liberal black crime apologist rag that it is, it couldn't have that. The Mother Jones list did include black mass shooters: Colin Ferguson, James Edward Pough and Maurice Clemmons and some asian/latino shooters but only one black shooter was pictured (Pough) and the list was clearly edited to be as white as possible and still seem credible on the surface.
Here are some non white shooter/mass killers that Mother Jones somehow didn't include in the list.
Terrell Brownlow 2013
John Allen Muhammad 2002
Lee Boyd Malvo 2002
Rodrick Shante Dantzler 2011
Aaron Alexis 2013
Erbie Bowser 2013
Earnest Woodley 2013
Jacob Roberts 2012
Lawrence Nathaniel Jones 2012
Lakim Faust 2013
Charles lee Thornton 2005
Christopher Dorner 2013
Maurice Clemmons 2009
James Edward Pough 1990
Clifton McGree 1996
Reginald and Jonathan Carr
Jaylen Fryberg 2014
You might be able to quibble about a couple names on the list as to whether they qualify as "mass shooters", plus Jason Fryber was in mid 2014 and the article states it's updated to May of 2014, so maybe his shooting was a little late, but for the most part everybody more than meets the definition. How on earth did Mother Jones miss Aaron Alexis? Christopher Dorner? Malvo and Muhammad? The others didn't get much, if any, publicity but those guys got a fair amount, maybe not as much as white shooters would have but enough that I can't believe someone doing an article like didn't consciously omit them, even with the selective amnesia that afflicts most liberals.
I'd be interested to have a conversation with the author of this article and the editor. They would undoubtedly claim the omissions were accidental and it wasn't meant to be a comprehensive list anyways (just one promoting a PC ideology?). My question would be: Why are all the omissions non whites?
Their response would undoubtedly be: You're a racist.
Wait, didn't I already write that? Jerry PDX (SMH)
