Actually the shooting at gay night clubs in the states are usually not white Christians. The most famous to me was the Pulse night club shooting by Omar Mateen, an Islamic extremist.

I think it's safe to say that anyone attacking the LGBTQ community is a religious extremist of some variety though.
