It's a huge double standard. If the shooter is Muslim or Mexican, Trump would be declaring all out war, bans on huge groups of people, deport people, tear families apart, do whatever it takes, etc. etc. his supporters would be foaming at the mouth for "justice".

But a white dude? Oh ... nothing can be done. Just send your prayers.

When a colored person does it it's an indictment on everyone of that group in America. If a white dude does it, it's a "lone nut". Colored people are not afforded the luxury of being seen as individuals in this country, they get to be grouped together and stigmatized if someone in their group does something terrible, but if it's a white guy, well it's not like there's any calls for white men to be banned or even screened more heavily at casinos, or schools, or movie theaters. 

Being seen as individuals is a luxury that's not afforded to all citizens, plain and simple. 

There will be people that will dismiss what you say Soundwave but you do speak the truth.  Other groups definitely do not have the luxury or any individual doing something like this not painted as the typical of that group instead of the atypical.

Soundwave's comment can be dismissed because he doesn't realise that white dudes can be muslims too. He also doesn't realise that you can't ban native citizens.
