What was the shooter's party affiliation?

LAS VEGAS — Jonathan Smith is likely to spend the rest of his life with a bullet lodged in the left side of his neck, a never-ending reminder of America’s deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
Smith, a 30-year-old copy machine repairman, was shot Sunday night while trying to help save people after a gunman opened fire on the crowd at the Route 91 Harvest Country Music Festival in Las Vegas. He knows he’s one of the lucky ones to be able to walk out of the hospital, even with his severe injuries.
As the bullets rained down, family was Smith’s top concern. He had driven to Las Vegas from Orange County, Calif., on Thursday to celebrate the 43rd birthday of his brother, Louis Rust, a big country music fan who had attended the festival in the past. They spent the weekend enjoying the music and had scored seats close to the stage for Jason Aldean’s prime-time performance Sunday night.

When the gunshots started, Smith initially thought they were fireworks. The music kept playing, Smith and Rust recalled. But the bullets kept coming. Aldean looked at his security guards and ran off the stage. Then the lights went out.
Rust realized what was really going on and told the entire extended family — all nine of them, including kids — to hold hands and run. By then, it was a stampede.
Smith was focused on saving his young nieces, but they separated in the crowd. He says he turned back toward the stage to look for them, he saw people hunched behind a sheriff patrol car at the northwest edge of the concert lawn. Others were so frightened they didn’t know what to do. He kept shouting, “Active shooter, active shooter, let’s go! We have to run.”
He grabbed people and told them to follow him toward a handicapped parking area in the direction of the airport, away from Las Vegas Boulevard. It was a large field with several rows of vehicles. Smith and the others crouched down behind one of the last rows of cars.
“I got a few people out of there,” Smith said. “You could hear the shots. It sounded like it was coming from all over Las Vegas Boulevard.”
 
It depends on whether you go by simple count or likelihood (figured by per capita)

https://www.statista.com/statistics/476456/mass-shootings-in-the-us-by-shooter-s-race/

So, let's figure this out.

By race since 1982.

50 - White
15 - Black
7 - Latino
7 - Asian
3 - Native American
5 - Other
3 - Unknown
---------
90 - Total.

So, that's (Percentage-wise):
55% - Whites
16.6% - Blacks
7.7% - Latino
7.7% - Asian
3.3% - Native American
5.5% - Other
3.3% - Unknown

Now if you take the percentages by population in the us (https://www.infoplease.com/us/race-...nd-hispaniclatino-origin-census-2000-and-2010)... 75.1% are white, 12.3% are black, 0.9% are Native American, 3.6% are Asian, 12.5% are Latino, the rest are "other" or mixed (7.9%)...

Anyway, by percentages of population or per capita you'll find that whites are not the most likely to commit mass murder, but because they are the largest demographic you will find that whites do commit more of these crimes by simple count.

on topic,

I would "guess" his party affiliation is liberal leaning democrat, otherwise the main stream media would be pushing the crazy right wing nut narrative.
wouldn't you say?

Of course if he is a registered Democrat then it is a non-story

see how this works in looney land. And Dems wonder why they are losing so much

Yeah, they got a lot of old white guys in Nevada that build an armory who vote Democraric, fits the profile perfectly

I suggest we make it illegal to murder people......

We tried that. It didn't work. I hear almost all the murder is done using these things called guns that repeateldly fire hard, pointed projectiles with great accuracy at long distance and high velocity killing anyone who gets hit instantly. I am also informed that everywhere they are illegal the murder rate is extremely low.

Got any other ideas given this added information I have provided you?

he was creepy looking

I hope this young man doesnt have to carry that bullet in his shoulder for life

it will help him hide ( his name ) if he wants to avoid the limelight.


it just seems kind of cruel to name a kid John Smith
