    The mod thought I was being racist, but it’s the opposite. If the the shooter is a person of color, they are 99% killed by racist cops. If the shooter is white, it’s 50/50. I’m not joking, it’s the way it seems. I’d love for a study to be done on it. Do you know of one?

      I understand what you’re saying. But it is inappropriate to make that joke. I think we all knew the person was gonna be a white dude. Trying to use this as a platform for racism is really not focusing on what the bigger problem is, in this particular case.
