There was a shooting in Gilroy, CA at a garlic festival. 3 people were killed and 15 more were injured but thankfully police responded almost immediately and took out the shooter. Because the shooting took place in gun-controlled California liberals have had a hard time exploiting this tragedy but no-longer-employable actress Rosanna Arquette thinks she has angle. According to the Hollywood lunatic all shooters have been white men and she’s labeled them all as terrorists.
Following the Gilroy shooting, check out what Arquette tweeted:
All of the shooters in America have been White males. White terrorists . The end.

Well no, it’s not the end because it’s a complete lie. Arquette isn’t real specific about what she’s talking about here. She could be trying to say that everyone who has ever shot someone in this country is a white guy, which would be ludicrous considering most violence and murder in the US is committed by minorities.
Let’s give her the benefit of the doubt that she’s saying all mass shooters have been white. This is still a lie and also very dumb. There have been plenty of non-white mass shooters:
In 2007 Seung-Hui Cho shot and killed 32 people at VA Tech. He was Asian.
In 2013 Aaron Alexis shot and killed 12 people at the Washington DC Navy Yard. He was black.
In 2018 Snochia Moseley shot and killed 3 people at a Maryland business. She was black.
In June of this year DeWayne Craddock shot and killed 12 people in Virginia Beach. He was black.
In fact, Statista tells us that between 1982-2019 there have been 47 non-white mass shooters. Maybe all of those non-white shooters don’t count because as a liberal Arquette isn’t allowed to call out minorities for the awful things they’ve done.
Arquette wasn’t quite done being full of shit in her blind outrage:
Violence has become normalized in America. This is something many of us are committed to change. #GunReformNOW we will never forget the people (especially children ) who have died at the hands of a killer with an Automatic weapon.

Automatic weapon? Here’s a quote from Fox News to clear that up:
The gunman who killed three people at a Northern California food festival Sunday night turned and fired his “AK-47-type assault rifle” at responding officers before being fatally wounded…
Police believe Legan legally purchased the rifle in Nevada on July 9 before returning to California with it at some point.
If the killer legally purchased an AK-type of weapon, it was definitely semi-automatic as full-auto weapons are not available for sale to the general public.
It has occurred to me that liberals may try to seize on this last detail to prove the country needs more gun control. They’ll say that yes California has tough gun laws, but that people can simply go to a neighboring state to purchase a weapon and bring it back to commit crimes.
Allow me to point out a flaw here: Californians cannot legally buy guns in Nevada from licensed firearms dealers. It’s actually against Nevada state law and I know because I have been told by several gun dealers in Nevada that they can’t sell to Californians. I don’t know how this asshole got his gun, but he didn’t legally buy it from a dealer in Nevada.
In absence of any kind of exploitable facts in this shooting, Rosanna Arquette has dug deep to blame it all on white men. When in doubt, play the race card. Sure, California has strict gun control and there are no laws that can stop previously law-abiding people from going crazy, so it must be a combination of white privilege and toxic masculinity.
