Mass shootings: profile white men
I appeared on CNN to discuss my recent Salon.com article looking at how America's reaction to mass shootings is shaped by the fact that most of the shooters are white men. Had they been from another demographic, we would likely face calls for racial profiling. But that isn't the case when the demographic in question is white men. Why with only 30% of the population being white men are 70% of the mass shootings being perpetrated by white men?
