Pretty much 95% of mass shooters are white dudes and the most common motivator seems to be an over-inflated ego and sense of entitlement. Culture soothes them with stories about how they are the center around which the world revolves and as such, are entitled to whatever they want, no questions asked.
That and they almost always have domestic violence charges. The Asshole in Texas had been charged with beating his girlfriend AND beating his toddler stepson so badly he fractured the kid's skull and yet...
Yeah, I'm pretty much done with NRA fuckwads. Regardless of how you feel about stuff like bump stocks and the like, the truth is that these shootings are committed by egotistic, entitled jackasses, rather than brave patriots making a stand against guvmint tyranny!
As I've pointed out before, back when the Black Panthers were active and advocating for Blacks to arm themselves, the NRA and the Right were suddenly in favor of gun control. The NRA was also oddly silent regarding Philando Castile, even though that was an example of the kind of scenario they fear: a law-abiding citizen being killed for peacefully exercising his rights. But I'm sure it has nothing to do with race and I'm horrible for even suggesting it.
