@Miriamm Thank you, we were just talking about how this would be diagramed vs reality

@Miriamm

This is a very poignant comic from @PinkWug
Too bad conservatives won't see it, or if they do, straight ignore it.

@atatassault @Miriamm @PinkWug The right is looking for any excuse besides guns, gun fanatics, and highly charged, under-educated people being encouraged by their actions and words.
@Miriamm … but of course guess which ones the right-wingers are bellowing from the mountaintops.
@Miriamm and those 3 are still around what the expected value is (~11) with p=0.004 for being trans with 2829 shootings

@Miriamm @PinkWug I'd update this graphic to include women. There have been four shootings by women since 1982. This is a MALE (mostly white) problem. What is it about our society that encourages these men to commit these kinds of atrocities?

Next time someone says we can't regulate guns, let's tell them we will regulate men instead. Any man who wants a firearm must have the approval of a woman. It would likely be effective if we could do that, and it would be fun to see them bellow with rage.

@Miriamm @PinkWug the three shooters figure is sourced from a fascist. It includes the shooter whose lawyer pretended he was non-binary for a few days, then dropped it There is no trend, Stop trusting any numbers they give
@Miriamm Say what you will about my friends and I, but at least we don't _celebrate_ the mass shooters among us.
@Miriamm
it isn't even a trend by per-capita measurements
since 3 is 0.1% of 2829
and since 0.5% of the US population identifies as trans
trans people are statistically less likely to do this, even on a per-person basis
