Viral Photo Destroys Leftist Narrative About “All White” Mass Shooters
By Cillian Zeal
In the wake of a mass shooting where the perpetrator happens to be lily-white, the left engages in a kind of reactive hand-wringing about “white males” being inordinately responsible for these crimes.
After the Las Vegas shooting on Oct. 1, Vox published an article titled “White American men are a bigger domestic terrorist threat than Muslim foreigners.”
Common Dreams, another liberal website, also ran a story on the Vegas gunman called, “When Shooter Is White Male, Note Critics, Label of ‘Terrorist’ Put on Hold.”
The New York Times, which claims to be an unbiased news source (in the same way Al Franken claims he’s “going to be accountable” while still refusing to resign), ran a piece after the terrorist attack in New York City on Halloween. The piece was headlined, “Manhattan Attack Is Called Terrorism. What About Vegas?”
While the piece argued that “for some Americans, typically those on the left, (Vegas) represented the terrorism of unchecked gun laws,” the article argued that by labeling the Manhattan attack as terrorism and the Vegas attack as a mass shooting, some on the left could plausibly call out a media “tendency to see Muslims as part of a hostile fifth column and white male killers as exceptions.”
