Gather Your Facts First

The problems are apparently: guns, Asian immigrants, loners.

Okay, explain Ted Bundy:

  • Admitted to 30 murders, but is suspected of many others, and strangled or beat his victims to death
  • Good looking, well educated, native born white American
  • Very personable, well-liked, out-going

Ted Bundy is the poster boy for the FBI’s profile of serial killers.

As Chris Regan notes April 19th was the anniversary of Waco and Oklahoma City, two all American disasters.

It’s a rare incident indeed when you can go from the specific to the general.

Indeed, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of a non-white mass murderer in the United States. Ted Bundy, Timothy McVeigh, etc… all white as a sheet. Indeed, Eddie Murphy, back when he was actually funny, had a little comedy skit as part of his routine where he would play-act the response of white suburbanites as a typical black teenage boy walked down the street, then launch into a rant about Ted Bundy and other mass murderers and ask why white people didn’t get their shit together and quit scaring people….

It’s the Rotarians you have to look out for if you just look at statistics.
