The Many Varieties of Mass-Murdering Shooters

Another mass shooting to absorb, this time in Stockton, CA. As with all such tragedies, if the perpetrator is other than Caucasian, and especially if in a gang, the story quickly gets scuttled by the fakestream media. If the gunman is Caucasian, however, one of the fakestream media’s favorite, blatant lies and long-term twists of reality kicks into high gear -- that mass murderers, particularly shooters, are virtually all white males, who prey on women and children, and especially on minorities.

Not a Second Thought

The portrayal of the lone white male mass shooter has been so thoroughly indoctrinated into our cultural collective unconscious that few, even on the Right, give it a second thought. The two attempts on Donald Trump’s life, the murder of Charlie Kirk, and reports of other white male shooters only add fodder to the Left’s unfounded assertion.

When reports of another shooting incident emerge, who among us does not quickly surmise that the perpetrator is a disaffected lone white male gunman? We make this instantaneous calculation because the fakestream press largely dwells only on incidents when a lone white male shooter is the perpetrator. As the days and weeks pass following such incidents, the press elevates the coverage, ensuring that we each 'know’ how vicious and evil white males are.

The problem with this type of reporting is that, as a percentage of the overall population, black males are more prevalent as mass shooters than white males. A comprehensive roster of all lone, male mass shooters from 1982 to the present, compiled by Mother Jones, is revealing.  

Nearly 17 percent of mass shooters are black, whereas blacks constitute a bit less than 15 percent of the overall population. Nearly 56 percent of mass shooters are white, whereas whites constitute 57.8 percent of the population. As mass shooters, white males are ‘under-represented’ while black male mass shooters are over-represented compared to any other race or ethnicity. Collectively, Asians, Latinos, Native Americans, and others account for the remaining 32% of lone male mass shooters.

Say It Isn’t So!

 "Wait. The above can't be true or we would have read about it.” You would NOT have read about it, because the fakestream press and Internet giants such as Facebook and Google systematically suppress such stories.

Since 1982, had there been fair and impartial news coverage of horrific shootings, the disproportionately high number of mass-shooting black males would be evident. The myth of the lone white male shooter would not have emerged.         

Why does the fakestream press fail to report on black male shooters? Why doesn’t the fakestream press elevate the coverage in the days that follow? Why are white victims of black or white shooters marginalized? For the precise answer, ask the publishers and top executives at the major fakestream press outlets, starting with The New York Times and The Washington Post, and every other media outlet on down.  

The short answer, however, is what you guessed: fakestream media outlets, managed by self-loathing Caucasians, are sympathetic if not ensconced in the affairs, activities, and ideology of the Left, and seek to relentlessly portray a particular narrative.

The Story We Wish to Convey

The narrative is: Caucasians are evil, especially males, and Caucasians are fully invested in systematic racism. To maintain this facade, the fakestream press aggrandizes any transgression of Caucasian males so that news consumers have no doubt about who represents disruptive elements in our society. Black males, Hispanic males, and any others deemed to be disadvantaged, who are involved in rioting, looting, rape, arson, mayhem, or even murder, receive a free pass

The reflexive viewpoint of fakestream media reporters is so embedded in their consciousness that often, some are no longer even aware of their inherent, completely biased disposition.

 Among those in the mainstream press who are cognizant of their own bias against Caucasian males, they experience no ethical or moral lapse. They are merely doing ‘their part’ for society to make our nation, and the world, more ‘just.’ They believe that they benefit society and that theirs is a noble calling.

Truth Must Prevail

The fundamental dilemma of such skewed reporting, year after year, and decade after decade, is that one cannot build a strong society based on a weak foundation. As Frank Lloyd Wright could not design architectural wonders on quicksand, the press cannot help to achieve social harmony and unification through blatant lies, 24/7.

Thomas Jefferson, a Caucasian male who has been unfairly and grossly maligned for two centuries about an alleged but non-existent affair with black slave Sally Hemings, is cited for this quote, which the fakestream press so desperately needs to embrace:

“There is not a truth existing which I fear... or would wish unknown to the whole world.”
