another white male mass killer arrested alive by the police

Amazing how the police can arrest white males, who were heavily armed and just killed many people, alive. Yet an unarmed black man minding his own business is killed by many well armed police - over and over again.

Notice it takes 87 primitive responses before:

87. He is a Syrian Immigrant.

So that theory's shot.

Early information from a national security agency suggests Boulder shooter planned to target the Trump rally in Colorado Springs, Feb 2020, but decided to wait until the next one on March 13 in Denver but it was cancelled due to COVID, per WH official

[franksolich]

It seems to me ol' Sam, who's probably about as Hindu as franksolich is a Chinaman, needs to know what he's talking about before he shoots off his mouth.

nah, just refer to him as a white muslim and you can keep the theory alive

[USA4ME]

Obviously many primitives have expertise in making Syrian pretzels into white pretzels, because they sure are twisting.

126. Not exactly the kind of white male we were expecting, eh?

I guess we're beyond the point as a society where a horrific massacre like this is enough to elicit sufficient amounts of sadness and anger. It's practically a prerequisite these days for race to somehow be injected into the tragedy du jour as well, even when not applicable and before we have any facts at our disposal.

And guess what? Now RW'ers are making the same asinine statements about Muslims.

I wish we were better than this as a nation, but I guess this is just part of the new normal.

142. The killer is a white male; what kind of white male were YOU expecting?

I went back and reread everything the OP wrote and unless s/he edited it, nothing s/he said was wrong.

Looks pretty damn accurate to me.

White incel kills Asian sex workers=HATE CRIME!!! RACISM!!! WHITE SUPREMACY!!!

Muslim kills a bunch of people=Now why would he do that? Must be mental illness...

Looks pretty damn accurate to you?

Unarmed black men minding their own business are killed by police over and over again? Name them.

[franksolich]

Well, here it is, around suppertime, ten hours after this was posted.

After it appeared Sam the pretend-Hindu had prematurely ejaculated a conclusion, I thought he'd delete it out of embarrassment.

Nope.  It's still up there, for all the world to see.....and laugh at.

Some people have no shame.

[thundley4]

Guess what? Most of the time it IS a Muslim or a crazed liberal.

So, when Trump did his travel ban that included some Arab Muslim countries, it was an attack on Muslims and people of color.

But when an Arab screws up Proggies' White Supremacy Narrative Arabs aren't POC.

If it weren't for double standards DUpipo would have no standards at all.

[SVPete]

I don't know about the "liberal" part, but the guy does seem to be crazed and he hates Trump. IOW, at least 2/3 of the way toward being a good DUpipo.

[Kc25]

Thanks Frank!, This whitey appreciates the assist!

[I_B_Perky]

Trump hater shooting up a public place, bullied in HS, ranting on facebook that he wanted a girlfriend usually equals liberal ***** boy.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9393669/Gunman-21-charged-murder-shooting-killing-10-people.html

Yep.... another democratic ***** inciting violence... as the dems tend to do... and we got the dump and MSM trying to spin it that he was a conservative and then when they couldn't do that.... they try to spin it as mental illness.

Fact of the matter is he was a LIBERAL ***** BOY that could not deal with life and decided to get his 15 minutes of fame.

The blame lies at the feet of the MSM for promoting mass shootings. The MSM should all be put in prison for accessory before the fact for murder. The MSM should be forced to show the aftermath of these fools lives in prison and maybe these Liberal ***** Boys will figure out that HS bullying is child's play compared to what is going to happen in prison.

I hope this Liberal ***** Boy winds up being a Blood's or Crip's prison gang property and gets rented out every nite.

If I'm around, I'm happy to do the favor; this isn't the first time someone was trying, and failing, to post from a telephone.

I have to do favors like this to counteract my reputation as a bad guy.

That's because they don't resist arrest you stupid ass.

[thundley4]

That's because they don't resist arrest you stupid ass.

And those blacks that are killed , 99% of the time had violently resisted arrest and put others in danger.

[franksolich]

So.....I go back to this thread 36 hours after non-Hindu Sam had posted it, thinking that surely by now he'd be embarrassed to have it up, and deleted it.

Oops. no.

137. Seeing the title, I knew this thread would be a fascinating

display of how stereotypes run deep at du. I was not disappointed, and actually got a bonus on the dissertation on the whiteness of Syrians. This skin color classification thing seems to be more complicated than I ever imagined. Is there an app for that?

145. So Middle Easterners are white now? I need to keep up with the lingo.

I can't help but think that some were expecting Bubba from Texas and they got Ahmad from Syria.

BannonsLiver (11,934 posts)     Tue Mar 23, 2021, 07:20 PM

153. It's embarrassing this thread hasn't been self deleted.

Just a bizarre, uninformed attempt at trying too hard.

FrankBooth (1,287 posts)       Tue Mar 23, 2021, 09:09 PM

160. And the absolute refusal to admit an obvious, and somewhat justified mistake

And then double down ferociously and even attack the credibility of anyone who might disagree, based on some semantic definition of whiteness that on its face is total horseshit. Sounds like the definition of gaslighting, and behavior we witnessed on a daily basis for the last 5 years.

Who you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?

jcmaine72 (1,371 posts)     Tue Mar 23, 2021, 09:22 PM

163. The worst part is always the doubling down that now inevitably occurs following eff-ups like this

He's white because some Syrian migrants in Sweden "feel white". Jeez. Anything to shoehorn a tragedy into a ready-made narrative is grist, I suppose.

I mean, this tragedy obviously wasn't horrific enough. What we really need is to throw race into the equation and keep it front and center somehow even after it's discovered not to be factor because...reasons.

W_HAMILTON (4,308 posts)     Tue Mar 23, 2021, 09:17 PM

162. "Middle Eastern" isn't a race.

Middle Easterners can be white, black, etc. As our Census notes:

White:

The category “White” includes all individuals who identify with one or more nationalities or ethnic groups originating in Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa. Examples of these groups include, but are not limited to, German, Irish, English, Italian, Lebanese, Egyptian, Polish, French, Iranian, Slavic, Cajun, and Chaldean.

Taken from: https://2020census.gov/en/about-questions/2020-census-questions-race.html

The OP claimed it was a white male shooter and s/he got a white male shooter.

     Does samsinghknow what continent Syria is on?    

BTW, is samsingh really a Sikh? Or simply identify as one? Or maybe committing "cultural appropriation" by using a common Sikh family name (Singh)?

[Texacon]

And yet the cops in Atlanta managed to arrest, alive mind you, a man in a grocery store carrying 6 firearms (one was an AR, one was a shotgun), and he was wearing body armor.

The man was black.  I doubt you'll hear much about it at DU.

I read the article on AOL, no mention of skin color and no comments for that article are allowed. Strange, but they do that quite often.

Something that seemed odd:

A 22-year-old man who police say went into an Atlanta grocery store carrying a rifle and who was later found to have six guns and body armor was arrested Wednesday.

Where did he have the shotgun stashed?
