FAKE NEWS ALERT - There Has NOT Been 18 School Shootings in 2018

FAKE NEWS ALERT - There Has NOT Been 18 School Shootings in 2018
Isn't the Parkland School Shooting horrific enough? Does the Liberal left really believe spreading this lie will make Parkland... What? Even more horrific?

The "18 in 2018" has swept across social media like a plague. Within minutes of the news Wednesday that another deranged lunatic had rampaged through a school, killing innocent men, women, and children, the liberal lie started.

"There have been 18 shooting incidents at schools in 2018." It was a lie but MSNBC, CNN, and windbags like Bernie Sanders gave the lie merit. Plus, it wasn't like the left cared about it being a lie. They believe "the end justifies the means" so, with that in mind. Do you really believe they care what Bernie Bullshitter tweeted out?
The Bloomberg Agenda
The figure originated with Everytown for Gun Safety, a nonprofit, co-founded by Michael Bloomberg, that works to prevent gun violence and is most famous for its running tally of school shootings.

Our hearts are with all those impacted by the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida today.

This is the 18th school shooting in the U.S. in 2018. https://t.co/YdPLz4zuOS

The Washington Post not exactly a Right-wing, conservative newspaper completely debunks this claim. Here is an excerpt from their story

Everytown has long inflated its total by including incidents of gunfire that are not really school shootings. Take, for example, what it counts as the year’s first: On the afternoon of Jan. 3, a 31-year-old man who had parked outside a Michigan elementary school called police to say he was armed and suicidal. Several hours later, he killed himself. The school, however, had been closed for seven months. There were no teachers. There were no students.

As BluePillSheep.com has always stated "Liberals will never let facts get in the way of their fiction"

Knee-jerk reaction @SpeakerRyan? There have been 25 school shootings since Columbine. 18 this YEAR.
After Pulse shooting- NOTHING
After Vegas- NOTHING
After Congressional Softball practice shooting- NOTHING https://t.co/JgDFkvwAmF

Maybe, just maybe, after 18 school shootings in America in just 43 days of 2018 the Congress might want to consider common-sense gun safety legislation and save innocent lives.

I realize that Sandy Hook was the moment. That was when the @GOP and @NRA declared, through inaction or continued propaganda, that they were okay with kids being killed in school. But this was the 18th this year. There haven’t been 18 days in February yet. https://t.co/phsiHL3IOY

BREAKING: At least 15 people were murdered after an 18 year old former student opened fire in a Broward County, FL High School. This is the 18th school shooting this year and it's only February 14th.

THIS IS MADNESS!

The Truth
If our starting point is a left wing liberal lie... How can we actually have a legitimate conversation?

Washington Examiner: “There haven't been 18 of what we would refer to as "school shootings" in 2018. The media is either sheepishly or deliberately moving the goalposts and widening the definition of what constitutes a school shooting." https://t.co/OjIktcCR3g

No, there haven’t been 18 school shooting in 2018. That number is flat wrong. https://t.co/MxQJ9BWSYi
