        That's the thing....this has nothing to do with the colour of their skin, it's mainly comes from the 3rd world violent country they came from! ...no coincidence it Islamic connected too!

        Oh, I don't know. Maybe the 32,000 homicides in the U.S. in 2016 might be why? Or the mass killing of 58 people and 500 injured. But I'm sure Australia would never have those problems if everyone had guns in their homes.

        You do know that 6% of the population (young, black males) commit over half of those homicides, right? If you were to remove their contribution to the statistics, the US gun problem would look a lot like European per-capita statistics. Posted 4 race relevance only.
