Do you have evidence of a number of "leftist" activists that have approximately the same count of murders as right-wingers/white supremacists have?
I mean, something to balance and show some equivalence?
You don't.
Because the single biggest real threat to any US citizen today is an other US citizen that can grab a weapon at will.
And it happens that in the overwhelming number of cases, the person that becomes a mass-murderer is a white, conservative, pro-right, pro-weapon, pro-republican.
Not acknowledging this is either total denial - or total complicity.
And. This is totally about politics (how a government deals with its people). NRA politics; that serves a very specific ideology.
Look in Wikipedia this category: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Mass_shootings_by_country https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Mass_shootings_by_cou... - then browse by country.
All countries, but the USA have sporadic sub-articles. USA has whole sub-categories.
USA are the _single_ country in the world where there are as many mass shootings, every year. When there are been more than 250 in the USA in 2019, there hasn't been even 10 in any other country in the world.
(to the down voters: downvote as much as you want guys - facts are facts - you are only deluding yourselves - you should look in the mirror more and stop considering the USA as the center/perfection of all things, because it's not)
- fit2rule 7y agoThe USA is also the worlds worst murderer of innocent people, in terms of illegal acts of war. It has been bombing innocent people at the rate of one bomb dropped every twenty minutes for the last 20 years. So? The world knows that American's are okay with violence. We haven't been hiding ourselves from its victims, or at least .. a big portion of the world sees and knows all too well, what most American's don't or won't: a principle product of the USA is violence.
