The liberals are trying to figure out how to deal with the fact that yesterday’s school shooting was committed with a shotgun, and not the DREADED ULTIMATE DEATH MACHINE OF WAR AR-15.
So um… here’s what they came up with.
Two details set the Santa Fe shooting apart from other recent deadly attacks: explosives and the use of less-lethal weapons. https://t.co/F0rJZQydMa

Yup. Shotguns are “less lethal.”
Tell that to the victims…
The attack at a Texas high school Friday echoed the all-too-familiar horrors Americans are accustomed to seeing on the news. But two details set it apart from the list of other recent deadly attacks: explosives and weapons used.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in Texas says the gunman, Dimitrios Pagourtzis, who was a student at Santa Fe High School, used two firearms: a shotgun and .38 caliber revolver, both of which he got from his father. Ten were left dead, mostly students.
The guns may have slowed down the gunman’s deadly rampage because they have a slower firing rate than firearms used in other recent mass shootings, such as the AR-15. Abbott said it was unclear whether Pagourtzis’ father knew that the weapons were missing.
Dear GOD.
I should have known they’d spin this somehow…
WTF?
Hottest take: “The guns were a less lethal weapon than firearms used in other recent mass shootings, such as the AR-15.”https://t.co/BVlTzqJN23

WTF
Less lethal? Ten innocent souls are gone. That IS lethal.
There is no less lethal! What a rag USA Today is.

Sigh…
Is there any use even trying to talk reason with these rock-bags at this point?
Here’s your reminder that the deadliest school shooting was committed at Virginia Tech… with a pistol. 32 died, 17 others were injured.
Pistols are also responsible for EXPONENTIALLY more deaths in this country than ARs are. But hey…surely USA Today wants us to think they are “less lethal” too, right?
All together now:
“Guns don’t kill people… people kill people.”
