Hol up, that's a thing? Fuck, I almost wish it was just to appease the furries, the reality is so much more depressing.

As a bonus it also deflects what would otherwise be a damning story about the gun violence problem.

The way you create a narrative is by saying something that's ninety percent true, omitting a bit of context, and sprinkling in one or two lies. That way, when it gets debunked, the firm believers will just say that it's close enough to the truth.

People insist it happens in the UK, too, and we don't have school shootings, so wouldn't have that source for the claim.
