    Wasn’t the “bigger” argument that it was trans people? And then there was news about the shooter allegedly having a trans partner (no idea if it was ever confirmed or not).

      He was asked what portion of gun crimes were by trans people, and he retorted with “are we counting gang violence?”

      So he was losing an argument about trans people and was trying to shift to blaming black people.

            The point he was making is that the vast majority of violence in America takes place in gang warfare, and if you’re not in a gang, it is far less of a personal concern than it might otherwise appear. I know this because it’s a common one that these kind of people make all the time.

            It’s a bad point because it basically implies that gang violence doesn’t matter.

            E: downvotes for explanation, I guess?

                I mean it’s pretty true if you don’t count suicides and if you know that the police are just a legalized gang.

                I’d bet good money that gun violence by police is a pretty big chunk of the total.

          Indeed. It’s a common dogwhistle the conservative talking heads have entrenched in modern discourse. Obviously, white gangs exist, but the act of mentioning gang violence while talking to a predominantly young, white crowd will water the seed in their mind that the other is the problem.

          Take a look at any Fox News segment that covers gang violence. Guarantee any mugshots or arrest videos shown during such segments do not show ANY white detainees. It’s deliberate. If they ever show a white person arrested, they will absolutely frame the segment differently, and won’t utter that phrase.

          Since the “war on drugs” designed to target minorities is less effective now, they branched out to calling it the war on gang violence.

        Naw are you serious? Kirk was asked how many mass shootings occurred in the last 10 years and he responded briefly with counting or not counting gang violence bs.

        Regardless, what in the world made you feel the need to gaslight us about it being a trans specific question that preceded the shooting. Also total bullshit on your part.

          In the run up to that question they were discussing trans mass shooters, then the questionnaire pivoted to mass shootings in general (to show that trans shooters are a tiny tiny minority) which Kirk then tried deflecting by asking about gang or non-gang related shootings.

        Theoretically I’m sure some trans people are in gangs, especially given how v coding probably heavily pressures trans prisoners into prison gangs, but as someone who’s known a ton of trans people I feel we’re disproportionately likely not to be perpetrating gang violence all else being equal

        Supposedly gun experts don’t think the rifle used matches the shot by any means. I’ve heard it from a few places as an egregious discrepancy, and the theory ultimately points to everyone’s favorite country which he was beginning to turn against.
