Young white male citizen.  The Maga crowd loves to blame immigrants for everything but most perpetrators of mass shootings have been white male citizens of the USA [/quote]

WRONG. Mass shootings are 3 or more shot people. Black people are the largest perpetrators of these crimes. Over 52% of black men who make up about 6% of the population. [/quote]
Let's see your stats, bro.[/quote]

They're made up in someone's racist delusional head.   Here's some actual data.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/476456/mass-shootings-in-the-us-by-shooter-s-race/
Between 1982 and June 2024, 81 out of the 150 mass shootings in the United States were carried out by White shooters. By comparison, the perpetrator was African American in 26 mass shootings, and Latino in 12. When calculated as percentages, this amounts to 54 percent, 17 percent, and eight percent respectively. 
Race of mass shooters reflects the U.S. population
Broadly speaking, the racial distribution of mass shootings mirrors the racial distribution of the U.S. population as a whole. While a superficial comparison of the statistics seems to suggest African American shooters are over-represented and Latino shooters underrepresented, the fact that the shooter’s race is unclear in around nine percent of cases, along with the different time frames over which these statistics are calculated, means no such conclusions should be drawn. Conversely, looking at the mass shootings in the United States by gender clearly demonstrates that the majority of mass shootings are carried out by men.[/quote]
