    white shooters

    Yes, the fact that most shooters are white does show something about white men. I am a white women. I consider white men extra dangerous. Are they? I have no true idea. But my instinct is to suspect them. I always usd to wonder, if the door opened suddenly and it was a strange man, which one would I be most afraid of? WHite, for sure. Esp if he was big, over weight, and a little bald.
