The point they're trying to make seems to be that mass shootings make up a higher proportion of all shootings committed by white men compared to their proportion of shootings by other groups. Basically the Despite argument, but with the base being shooters rather than the whole population.
I suspect that a previous draft also included the proportion of non-mass shooters by race but it was removed for crimethink, leaving the current confused mess.
