I think it's a stretch, to out it mildly, to imply that gun violence stats are a persistent derivative of race.

That may be, but it's an objective fact that gun violence stats are strongly correlated with race. You are free to investigate or speculate on the underlying reasons for that. I didn't offer my perspective.

What are your theories on why the high end mass shooters are almost entirely of European descent then?

The mass shooting in Vegas, in Tasmania, in Norway, in New Zealand, etc?

As an objective fact (your words) extreme mass shootings are strongly correlated with race.

The rest seem more correlated with economic circumstances.
