Vice President Kamala Harris’ niece is under fire for presuming the gunman in Monday’s Colorado mass shooting was white — because he was taken into custody alive.

“The Atlanta shooting was not even a week ago,” Meena Harris wrote in a since-deleted tweet, Fox News reported Tuesday.

“VIolent white men are the greatest terrorist threat to our country,” she wrote.

Ahmad Alissa, 21, who is charged with killing 10 people at a Boulder King Sooper grocery store, is of Syrian descent, police said.

On Tuesday, Meena Harris took to Twitter again for a mea culpa post on the blunder.

“I deleted a previous tweet about the suspect in the Boulder shooting,” she wrote in the post. “I made an assumption based on his being taken into custody alive and the fact that the majority of mass shootings in the US are carried out by white men.”

Harris wasn’t the only one who jumped to conclusions about the gunman before police identified Alissa. 

“The shooter was taken into custody,” feminist and author Amy Siskind said in a post on her Twitter page Monday. “In other words it was almost certainly a white man (again). If he were Black or Brown he would be dead.

Siskind later tried to fend off online critics, posting that “his name does not determine skin color. Nor does religion.” 

“When a white guy with an AR-15 shoots and kills a bunch of people, is the motive* really relevant?” Twitter user George Hahn posted “In other words it was almost certainly a white man (again). If he were Black or Brown he would be dead.” 

In a since-deleted tweet USA Today race and inclusion editor Hemal Jhaveri chimed in that “it’s always an angry white man. always,” according to Fox. 

Meena Harris’ decision to also delete her premature tweet on the shooter’s race did little to soothe some Twitter users, however. 

“Maybe you can do better than assume things about tragic events for RTs?” one user wrote Tuesday. “Is that too much to ask?”

Said another: “Apology worse than the original tweet?”

Harris, a children’s book author, was a prominent part of her aunt’s 2020 campaign. She previously championed the decision to cancel several Dr. Seuss titles over concerns they were racially insensitive.
