Yes, that is true – there was a posting after the Orlando shooting about that fact – that most mass shooters are DEMOCRATS.
Following was from my blog entitled, “Obama Orlando Political Speech” dated June 20, 2016, covering the Orlando shooting.
(Obama needs to check out the Democrats because all of the shootings he mentioned above were committed by a Democrat or a member of a Democrat family. In fact the Orlando Islamist terrorist was a committed Democrat. In fact, he was hit on three times by the FBI and they still gave him a free ride to this terror. Look at the Boston bombers who were Islamist terrorists – their file was put on the shelf because one of them was an FBI informant.)

Congresswoman claims most mass shooters are Democrats
CNN
By Ryan Nobles, CNN
Rep. Claudia Tenney, an upstate New York Republican who is up for re-election in one of the most competitive congressional districts in America, told a radio host in Albany that Democrats are more prone to be mass shooters.
Speaking to host Fred Dicker on WGDJ radio, Tenney was discussing the shooting in Parkland, Florida that left 17 people dead when she made the remark.
“It’s interesting that so many of these people that commit the mass murders end up being Democrats,” Tenney said. “But the media doesn’t talk about that.”
Tenney, who is an ardent supporter of the Second Amendment, was responding to a point made by Dicker that the majority of gun victims come from the inner cities, not in mass shootings.
Tenney said she supports taking a look at the federal background check system and argued that the shooting should not change the dynamics of the debate over gun control in her district which encompasses cities like Utica, Rome and Binghamton.
CNN followed up for clarification from her office and asked specifically what statistics she was referring to, and her campaign later issued a statement.
“I am fed up with the media and liberals attempting to politicize tragedies and demonize law-abiding gun owners and conservative Americans every time there is a horrible tragedy,” Tenney said in the statement. “While we know the perpetrators of these atrocities have a wide variety of political views, my comments are in response to a question about the failure to prosecute illegal gun crime. I will continue to stand up for law-abiding citizens who are smeared by anti-gun liberal elitists.”
Democrats, who have the Tenney seat high on their list of potential flips, were quick to pounce on her remarks.
“Once again Congresswoman Tenney has demonstrated how completely fit she is to serve in Congress,” Even Lukaske, a spokesperson from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said in a statement. “Tenney’s comments are unhinged, shameful and disgusting, and show why voters will replace her next November.”
But in the radio interview, Tenney argued that her commitment to the Second Amendment will be a benefit to her run in a rural, upstate New York district. She pointed out that even her opponent, Utica Democrat and Assemblyman Anthony Brindisi considers himself a supporter of gun rights.
Brindisi, who holds an “A” rating from the National Rifle Association as a state legislator, which indicates support for gun rights, has yet to propose any significant change to gun laws in the wake of the Parkland Shooting.
