RE: The Deadliest School Attack in the US Was Erased from History Because It Wasn't Done With a Gun

in #history7 years ago

I looked up a list of which industries spend the most on lobbying, the drug industry is number one, the gun industry was not even on the list of the top 20. I bet the ratio of advertising on the TV news is about the same. The politicians and media will never ever go against the drug companies whose products come with a warning "may cause suicidal actions". They will continue to scapegoat legal guns. The other day they were claiming that Columbine was the first school shooting, I guess to push the false narrative that only semi auto rifles are used in school shootings. I guess they want people to forget about the guy who shot 45 people with a bolt action rifle on a campus.

Sort:  

That's a great point... Following the money can often root out sub-motives! There are deep phycological problems in our society that need to be dealt with. As long as people scapegoat guns the real problem goes unaddressed... And grows!
