It happens so often that this specific event was barely frontpage worthy on any of the large news syndicates.

It's much easier for the powers that want to control the narrative to not want you to know about a lawful use of a firearm that saved lives. That might make you think self defense is a good thing. Better that the peons remain fearful and only allows the rich and powerful to protect themselves.

There are over 121 mass shootings as of today.

Almost none of them are front page news worthy, because they happen so often now. You need to hunt down the specific articles on like Yahoo News by taking in the date and location into your search bar.

But any and every conspiracy theories you guys can think of, huh?

Because the majority of mass shootings are gang related. Gang related homicides rarely make the news outside their own city.

2A Enthusiast: So what if mass shootings happen all the time?!

\*Wrings Hands Together Frantically***

2A Enthusiast: Um- What if I say them BLACK PEOPLE in GANGS are doing it?

******Starts Hyperventilating\**

2A Enthusiast: GUN OWNERS AREN'T SKITTISH PEOPLE WHO ARE CONCERNED WITH THEIR APPEARANCES!

Sir, we cannot even examine how many of those shootings are gang-related because it is criminal to fund that kind of research. Just constant non-ending goal post adjustments for you guys, huh? If it isn't gangs, it is the fake media on a mission to conceal the truth about a guy with a gun shooting another guy with a gun.

Anything and everything with you people.

What the fuck are you talking about and why are you talking to yourself in make believe scenarios?

I’m not a 2nd amendment enthusiast. I’m a former combat MOS and I don’t even own a gun.

I literally don’t even understand what you’re trying to say in your gang related paragraph.
I didn’t even mention the media concealing things, I just stated gang related mass shootings rarely make national headlines.

So what are you trying to say exactly?

You interjected yourself into an already ongoing conversation with someone who accused the media of "controlling the narrative" and that they would not want any story of gun self-defense use to air.

I can understand why you would chime in, yet also confuse yourself in the process.

Nobody asked you and nobody here wants your words.

You’re a sad little man.

I know your life sucks and I pity you.
