Are the FACTS RACIST???


 Please, we are all of one HUMAN RACE. 

 Admit that this is TRUE. Teach it and preach it. 

 If we do, we may see less of these mentally ill 

 people acting out their delusional thoughts. 

 If we don't we will be accountable for our silence. 


Comparing the figures in the following charts it is clearly see that the incidence of mass shootings committed by racial groups are quite in line with our national demographics.

NOTE: in the 1st line above “White alone, percent" includes Hispanics as white.

In the chart below we see some variation between shooters and their racial demographics But what is very clear is this: People, HUMAN BEINGS, citizens as a whole in America today are not engaging in a race war. There are political groups trying to foment such a war, or the fear of such a war to advance their agenda of eliminating the USA as a world power.

The following incidents were noted by President Biden in his recent speech. Note that not all the shooters were white supremacists against black people.

Charleston, South Carolina
Seven years ago, Dylann Roof a white supremacist killed nine black worshippers at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church. 

El Paso, Texas
In 2019, a 21-year-old white racist, Patrick Wood Crusius, killed 23 people and wounded 21 others at a Walmart store. The great majority of his victims were Hispanic. 

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

In 2018, a white anti-semite, Robert Gregory Bowers, murdered 11 Jews attending Sabbath services at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.

Atlanta, Georgia

In 2021, 21-year-old white sex addict Robert Aaron Long killed eight people at three massage parlors. The killings were motivated by his sex addiction and his religious conviction that those who tempted him should be killed. Race had nothing to do with it. 

Dallas, Texas

May 11, 2022 Jeremy Smith shot and wounded three women of Asian descent. Jeremy Smith is a black man. He is said to be mentally ill.  

Buffalo New York
A mass shooting occurred in Buffalo, New York, United States, at a Tops Friendly Markets store, a supermarket in the East Side neighborhood. Ten black people were killed. Three other people were injured. The accused, identified as 18-year-old Payton S. Gendron, was taken into custody and charged with first-degree murder. Genedron, who is white, has identified with or been identified with a white supremacist theory called the “great replacement theory.” Sources indicate that he may be delusional. 


The following black men committed mass shootings. Note that not all were motivated by black hatred and animosity against white people.


Omar S. Thornton
In 2010 Thornton had been called in by his employer, Hartford Distributors in Connecticut, to be disciplined for stealing inventory. After signing a resignation agreement, Thornton opened fire, killing eight people before turning the gun on himself.

Colin Ferguson
Ferguson opened fire on a crowded Long Island Rail Road train in 1993, killing six people and injuring 19. In his pockets, police found scribbled notes in which Ferguson expressed his reasons for the shooting — including a previous arrest. At the trial, Ferguson's lawyers used the "black rage" defense, claiming that Ferguson had been driven to insanity because of racism and could not be held responsible for his crimes. Ferguson was sentenced to 315 years to life in prison.


Maurice Clemmons
Shortly after being released from prison, Clemmons shot and killed four police officers in Parkland, Wash. Clemmons managed to evade police for two days before being shot and killed by officers in Seattle.


Nathan Dunlap
Dunlap shot and killed four people in an Aurora, Colo., Chuck E. Cheese's restaurant in 1993. Yes, the same city in which James Holmes opened fire in a crowded theater during a screening of
Batman in 2012. Dunlap was sentenced to death, but Colorado's current governor, John Hickenlooper, delayed his sentence indefinitely in May 2013.


John Allen Muhammad
Muhammad, better known as the "D.C. sniper," was the mastermind of the 2003 Beltway sniper attacks. Over a period of three weeks, Muhammad and his protégé, Lee Boyd Malvo, killed 10 people. During the trial, prosecutors surmised that Muhammad had planned the killings in order to have a cover for the eventual murder of his ex-wife, Mildred. However, that theory was thrown out by the judge, who stated that no clear link had been established. Muhammad was executed on Nov. 20, 2009.


Lee Boyd Malvo
At 17 years of age, Lee served as John Allen Muhammad's accomplice during the D.C.-sniper killings. In his confession, Lee said that he and Muhammad planned to kill six white people in order to "terrorize the nation." Lee is serving six consecutive life sentences without a possibility of parole. 


Christopher Dorner
Dorner's killing spree shook the Los Angeles area for nearly a week. Over nine days in February 2013, Dorner killed four people, including three police officers, and left three injured. In his manifesto, posted online before the shootings, Dorner recounted the racism he encountered while working as a Los Angeles Police Department officer and the firing that he deemed unfair. Dorner died of a self-inflicted gunshot during a standoff with police.

Crime is not normal behavior. Criminals have thought wrongly and done wrongly. Murder is not normal, it is criminal. 
Mentally well people do not commit crimes. Criminal actions are committed in times which are the least lapses from mental sanity. In a very real way we are all criminals. We know that all have sinned. And is not crime also sin?

The first thing we MUST DO is abandon the criminal thinking that the color of another persons skin is cause for his or her murder. It is NOT. Skin color does not indicate any strength or weakness, nor any blessing or curse. We are not smart or dumb, fools or wise, tall or short or rich or poor because we are white, black, yellow, red or brown. 


There has been a question asked by children and adults for millennia:
"Why is there so much evil in the world?"
My answer is this (for what it is worth):
"There is so much evil in the world because men and women do so much evil."


Please, we are all of one HUMAN RACE ! 

Admit that this is TRUE. Teach it and preach it. 

If we do, we may see less of these mentally ill 

people acting out their delusional thoughts. 

If we don't we will be accountable for our silence.

Fear not

  Genesis 1:31 (ASV)

“And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.”

 Genesis 3 (ASV)

²² And Jehovah God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever-

²³ therefore Jehovah God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.

²⁴ So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden the Cherubim, and the flame of a sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

Genesis 6 (ASV)

⁵ And Jehovah saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

⁶ And it repented Jehovah that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

⁷ And Jehovah said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the ground; both man, and beast, and creeping things, and birds of the heavens; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

⁸ But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.

Genesis 12 (ASV)

¹ Now Jehovah said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee:

² and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make they name great; and be thou a blessing;

³ and I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse: and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed. .......

⁷ And Jehovah appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto Jehovah, who appeared unto him.

Genesis 15 (ASV)

³ And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

⁴ And, behold, the word of Jehovah came unto him, saying, This man shall not be thine heir; But he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.

⁵ And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.

⁶ And he believed in Jehovah; and he reckoned it to him for righteousness.

Genesis 15 (ASV)

¹³ And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;

¹⁴ and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

¹⁵ But thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

Genesis 22 (ASV)

¹⁵ And the angel of Jehovah called unto Abraham a second time out of heaven,

¹⁶ and said, By myself have I sworn, saith Jehovah, because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son,

¹⁷ that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore. And thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies.

¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed. Because thou hast obeyed my voice.

Exodus 2 (ASV)

²³ And it came to pass in the course of those many days, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.

²⁴ And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

²⁵ And God saw the children of Israel, and God took knowledge [of them].

Exodus 3 (ASV)

⁷ And Jehovah said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;

⁸ and I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

⁹ And now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: moreover I have seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.

¹⁰ Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.

Exodus 12 (ASV)

⁷ And they shall take of the blood, and put it on the two side-posts and on the lintel, upon the houses wherein they shall eat it. .......

¹³ And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

John 19:30 (ASV)

“When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.

John 19 (ASV)

³³ but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

³⁴ howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.


It is finished. John 19:30


Romans 5 (ASV)

⁷ ... scarcely for a righteous man will one die: for peradventure for the good man some one would even dare to die.

⁸ But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

⁹ Much more then, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath [of God] through him.

¹⁰ For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life;

¹¹ and not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

Romans 8 (ASV)

³¹ What then shall we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [is] against us?

³² He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things?

³³ Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth;

³⁴ who is he that condemneth? It is Christ Jesus that died, yea rather, that was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

³⁶ Even as it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

³⁷ Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

³⁸ For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

³⁹ nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
