@3SisHmested @junolocal @DurrrtyDiana people like you ALSO bristle at the suggestion that the ease of access to guns in this country could be at fault, despite the fact that this LITERALLY ONLY HAPPENS in this country.
@3SisHmested @junolocal @DurrrtyDiana because people like you bristle at the suggestion that it's even POSSIBLE this issue is over represented in white families, and getting over that hurdle is an actual step to solving the underlying issue.
@3SisHmested @junolocal @DurrrtyDiana white people for over a century: "look at all these problems directly attributable to problems in the black community"
white people when white boys go on murder rampages: "WELL HOW COULD THIS POSSIBLY BE RELATED TO RACE"
@3SisHmested @junolocal @DurrrtyDiana because it is absolutely an overrepresented problem among white people. that doesn't mean it's caused by their skin.
bringing it up is also pretty useful in getting racists to self identify π
