Why do these two images trigger people so vehemently?

Because the images introduce race into the discussion without words and make it hard to call the person who compiled the images racist as long as the list is complete or not intentionally skewed.

Most of these shooters were not plastered all over the media. That shows media bias against white people and especially conservatives, who's motives are then highlighted. Most of these shootings are likely due to drug and gang crime and doesn't fit the media narrative if they can't blame the gun.

Thanks Tex, that's where I was going with this. As terrible as the mass shooting events like the Fedex ones that make the headlines are, in terms of numbers, they're just statistical noise when compared to the people killed in gang crime, mostly black on black gang crime.

Check this out from Baltimore and extrapolate that to the major cities.
