White America doesn't have a gun problem, pretending that is racist is hypocritical.

"White America" does have its own gun problem:

In 2020, 12,179 Black Americans were killed with guns compared
with 7,286 white Americans.

That's more than 7K unnecessary deaths due to firearms.  If you
seriously consider that to be NOT a problem Mort, then you're even
less compassionate than I thought.  And, ironically, your comment
along these lines is itself based on your own inherent racism.

Western Europe has the same problems and for the same reasons. People with third world mentalities are the law breakers.

Not so at all...

   Firearms and deaths by firearms in the EU.

There are currently 25 million gun owners in the EU. Together,
they own approximately 79.8 million guns. This means an average
gun ownership rate of 15.7 guns per 100 people.

The United States has the highest gun ownership rate with
120.5 firearms per 100 people. Yemen is second highest
with 52.8 firearms per 100 people.  In Australia, that figure
is only  3.4 firearms per 100 people.

LOL...

As per usual, when Mort is confronted with accurate but contradictory
claims—as supported with accredited statistical links—rather than
silly memes—he suddenly goes dark, and avoids addressing those claims.

   Weak as piss.

Mort's point is that violent crime in Europe, as in America, disproportionately caused by tinted demographics.

But that doesn't in any way excuse the more than 7,000 firearm
deaths caused by white Americans does it?   And why introduce
EU statistics anyway?  To suggest there's any concomitancy with
European societal standards and America's is absurd.

Knife crime in England is black crime. Violent crime in Scandinavia is largely immigrants from the deeply tanned third world.

At any rate, knife crimes in England or Scandinavia have nothing at
all to do with gun crimes in America.

You can’t?
