Would it be safe to say these people are protecting themselves from a certain ethnic population that is causing 90% of the problem?

The same ethnic population that is responsible for the bulk of the non self defense shootings?

Or would that be racist?

Ye shall know the truth, and speak the truth, and the liberals will hate you for it.

Odds are, that same ethnic population is doing the self defense shooting too. Detroit is 82.7% black.

In a city that is 85% Black, 10% White and 5% Other, it would be difficult to know which race you would be writing about.

It’s decent people protecting themselves from selfish violent people.

Don’t see color in this. Evil masks itself in your own skin pigment too.

We shouldn’t depend on police (fellow) humans to take on all fearful duties, we’re the armed citizenry that defends our country afterall. We’ve just demurred for too long now and that’s let the whole society down.

A non-explanation, since 90% of the victims are of the same ethnic persuasion...

sounds like the ethnic population is protecting itself from ethnic preditors. Blacks are the most frequent victims of black crime.

Worse. It’s racist to even ask if it would be racist.
