Hey Michael Moore- Americans aren’t the only ones that kill people

Never mind the mass shootings in Sweden and Germany, Michael Moore has decided that it’s us Americans who murder people.I say murder because killing in self-defense is not the same thing as murdering people, and you don’t have to be an English major to know that. I’m a communications major, and I know that.

“We won’t pass the necessary laws, but more importantly we won’t consider why this happens here all the time. When the NRA says, ‘Guns don’t kill people — people kill people,’ they’ve got it half-right. Except I would amend it to this: ‘Guns don’t kill people — Americans kill people,'” he wrote. “Enjoy the rest of your day, and rest assured this will all happen again very soon.”

What about the mass shootings in Germany, Norway, etc? What about the Chinese knife attacks?

Nearly all of our mass shootings are by angry or disturbed white males. None of them are committed by the majority gender, women. Hmmm, why is that?

Maybe because angry or disturbed black males join gangs where shootings are usually about retaliation or protection of territory.

Here are some mass killings Moore missed.

Wikipidia also keeps a long list of mass shootings all over the word, and this happens regardless of the country’s gun laws.
