>>83761585I would count this as a civil war or riot.
>>83761603They immediately claimed it.
>>83761899No. Not by FBI stats. Most are gang related.

>>83762069Nobody's even considering the Czechoslovakian model of gun control. The states that are leading the way are pushing for blanket bans, incrementally by weapon class, and there's zero trust from gun owners that such a thing would not be used to try to ban all guns.

>>83762288>psych evaluation, criminal background check.A rudimentary one is already done for all new gun sales. And if there was a psych evaluation that really worked, we'd be using it before we hire police officers.
>>83761988>>83762289Via publicly available FBI stats, overall shootings, black people are a bit under 50 percent of all violent crimes, regardless of type. Black people are about 15 percent of the population, so they're super overrepresented. White people are close to 60 percent of the shooters, and 60 percent of the population.
Asians are heavily underrepresented per capita. Hispanics are moderately overepresented.
This has been a fairly consistent trend, although the hispanic numbers are a bit unstable because of the demographic shift. They've been generally dropping per capita, presumably because of richer hispanics on average.
Don't take my word for it, because I'm going by memory. Double check for yourself if you care enough.

Sorry, it was just too easy.>>83762017A bunch of fighters who traveled to Syria for their civil war in the name of jihad are religious lightweights. This is really not uncommon.
