The Mass Shooting Liberals Are Desperate To Cover Up

Every single time we see a “mass shooting” here on American soil the media picks up on it like a hound dog to a scent and then runs with it until they’ve used every last inch of the story for their purposes.

It’s their M.O.

Find a tragic story involving guns, and then make sure everyone in America is exposed to their message. Which is obviously “Guns kill people, so we need more gun control so we can prevent mass shootings.”

Liberals often point to other countries like Australia as the benchmark for success when it comes to gun confiscation reducing mass shootings.

But what happens when a story appears to run against their point of view?

They bury it.

Bearing Arms shows how NPR managed to falsely report on an Australian mass shooting and what they did when they were called out on it:

You can fool some people all of the time, and most people some of the time, but a University of California-Berkeley psychology professor seems to think that she can fool NPR readers all of the time.

While attempting to support the Obama Administration’s new push to force mandatory gun buybacks, Tania Lombrozo made the following claim about Australia’s gun laws.

Last year, President Obama suggested the U.S. follow Australia’s example by adopting a strict gun ban on semi-automatic and automatic weapons. Australia hasn’t had a mass shooting since it enacted the legislation in 1996.

I quickly called Lombrozo and NPR on her claim.

Lombrozo then asked for evidence.

I provided it.

At Monash, seven people were shot (two fatally) by a murderous student who was armed with multiple handguns. All six handguns were acquired legally.  The attacker was later determined to be mentally ill. The Hectorville siege that saw seven people shot (three fatally) was conducted with a shotgun that was legal under Australian law. The attacker in this incident was also found to be mentally ill. The Hunt family murderswere likewise carried out with a legally-owned shotgun. The murderer in this instance was thought to be highly stressed due to his wife’s head injury.

Lombrozo’s response was to shift goalposts.

Lombrozo has since gone silent, which you might expect from a psychology professor attempt to cover up the fact that crazy people were behind two of the three mass shootings she wants to whitewash over.

Apparently, she really believes that she can make false claims in support of Obama’s mandatory gun buyback/confiscation agenda and get away with it.

It remains to be seen if NPR will let her.

It’s the oldest trick in the book and liberals love to use it.

They constantly invent statistics about guns, cherry pick data, and use studies to support their confirmation bias about how gun control will reduce violence.

BUT, when a study by the NRA comes out that shows the more guns we own the safer we are they say nothing about it…EVER.

More times than can be counted has the mainstream media ignored outright the statistical evidence pointing to societies with more guns being safer.

But in the long run they don’t care about safety, they care about making us impotent. That much is obvious.
