#FakeNews Media Big Lie: Mass shootings edition


The #FakeNews media and the Democrats are constantly lying when  they say that America has the world's worst mass shooting record.  In fact research shows that America is 64th in the world in terms of mass shootings per capita.

America is not only much better off than various third world hell holes but it is at least 25% safer than 1st world countries like Norway, Finland, France, Switzerland, and Russia.

Note that the draconian gun control laws in countries like France haven't kept the mass shooting rate per capita below that of America where guns are prevalent.

Just as gun control laws have been shown to not work at reducing crime in the US they have been shown to fail in other countries as well. Yet the Democrats want us to be disarmed and even threaten to use nuclear weapons against us if we were to use our weapons against an oppressive government.  It's clear the motivation of the Democrats is not reducing mass shootings but reducing the ability of the people to defend themselves thereby making them more dependent on the government and unable to defend themselves against tyranny.

Also interesting is that the world rate of mass shootings has grown 291% faster than the rate in the US.  Hence it's not that the US is experiencing an unprecedented growth in mass shootings which should cause us to reconsider the 2nd Amendment.

But the #FakeNews media has to lie in order to support the Democrats call for gun control and gun free zones. The recent shooting at a hospital in Chicago occurred in a gun free zone. Does any sane person actually believe that declaring a location "gun free" is going to stop some lunatic bent on mass murder from bringing a gun to that location?

While the #FakeNews media tried to portray the shooter as a racist by quoting him saying

“Whites don’t kill whites.”

The full quote was:

"The killer said: “Don’t shoot me. I won’t shoot you. Whites don’t shoot whites.” The other white person was pointing a permitted concealed handgun at the killer."

That is the shooter was telling the gun caring honest citizen to not shoot the killer. That completely changes the context of the #FakeNews media quote while concealing the fact that it was an armed citizen was the one who stood in the way of the killers plans.

The reality is that an armed citizenry is better able to end mass shootings than a disarmed one.  While the police are heroic they simply take too long to get to most shootings because the density of police is low.
