Who did all that shooting that killed two black ladies at a bbq in Rochester . Yahoo said to be on the lookout for them except they left out their descriptions.

Is this your source?


I notice that the article only focuses on race. I think that might be misleading.

When it comes to crime, we know that black people have a much higher arrest rate but the same stats show that poor people have the higher arrest rate... their race is an effect, not the cause.

Knowing that, I suspect that the same is true here... that poor people are more likely to have gun injuries, and it just so happens that black people have a much higher poverty rate.

And JAMA did a study in 2022 that found that to be exactly the case...
