NRA's School Security Plan Cites Phony Shooting
The gun lobby's report on safeguarding America's school kids cites a terrible massacre—that didn't actually happen.


The centerpiece of the NRA's 225-page "Report of the National School Shield Task Force" is putting armed guards in America's K-12 schools. Deep into the report, a section on securing buildings makes the case for doing away with classroom windows that may be vulnerable to armed attackers. It cites a mass murder from three years ago:

For example, in 2010 a 16-year-old attacker killed six people hiding in a locked classroom in Hastings Middle School in Minnesota by shooting and subsequently stepping through a tempered glass window that ran vertically alongside the classroom door.


Horrifying—except it never happened. Here's what actually happened in 2010 at Hastings Middle School in Minnesota:

Brandishing a loaded handgun at teachers and students in at least two Hastings Middle School classrooms Monday, an eighth-grade student spread terror but fired no shots before being tackled and subdued by a school police officer.

"It was the closest thing to a school shooting without firing a gun," said Michael McMenomy, Hastings police chief. "We don't know whether he didn't want to shoot or whether the gun jammed."

Confronting one locked door, the student used the gun to break out a pane of glass, thrust his arm through the opening and unlocked the door. Again he pointed the gun at the class, but fled without shooting.

The report's introductory remarks float the idea, for example, that the armed security officer who was on hand at Columbine High School in 1999 helped prevent carnage:

Although the officer engaged in brief gunfire with the two murderers, which likely saved several lives, the officer remained outside the building caring for a wounded student as the killers proceeded inside.


And how do we know that the officer—who failed to stop the two suicidal murderers —"likely saved several lives"? Because, according to the report's citation, a conservative pundit speculated that's what happened. (There is no specific evidence to support that conclusion.)



Wellllll, there you have it... A "conservative pundit" speculated it; the NRA believes it; and that settles it....

Lies, deceit, stuff guaranteed to scare the low-intelligence wackos, and whip the gun-nuts into a frenzy... Unfortunately, (as usual), it is lies... Imagine my surprise... :VeryScared:

You mean like this...

Democratic Rep. Diana DeGette has been the lead sponsor on a federal ban on high-capacity ammunition magazines in two Congresses, saying it’s one of her top priorities.

But Tuesday at a Denver Post forum on the gun control debate, the senior congresswoman from Denver appeared to not understand how guns work.

Asked how a ban on magazines holding more than 15 rounds would be effective in reducing gun violence, DeGette said:

“I will tell you these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.” [/b][/i]

Maybe Megyn Kelley has her own opinion?

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Megyn Kelly was the one who also called out Karl Rove on election night. Could be FNC journalists are more objective than the Left gives them credit for?

That lady is about as dumb as a box of bricks, and I hope it's just with firearms. It's proven right there people, and certain people actually WANT this lady creating new legislation? Wow, just, wow.
