The US is approx 73% white. All other factors being equal, I'd expect roughly 70% of the shooters to be white people. 64 a lot of shootings, but in context it's not surprising. Black folks are around 12-14%, concentrated mostly in the south or big cities. 19% is a little high but still within a roughly corresponding population size. The Latino population is roughly 16%, estimated to be 30% by around 2050. The real question is why the Latinos have less shootings, proportionally, than the other groups; my best guess is something loosely related to the "Hispanic Paradox" which is basically that Hispanic populations do better in terms of health outcomes and other health-related metrics than other poor, non-white Minorities: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispanic_paradox https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispanic_paradox
