Daily Caller: Hillary Clinton Claims There Have Been ‘Over 230’ School Shootings Since 2012.

Hillary Clinton tweeted out a misleading statistic in the aftermath of the deadly school shooting this week in Florida.

Clinton tweeted a claim that there have been “over 230” school shootings since the Sandy Hook shooting, which occurred in 2012. The statistic comes from the gun control group Everytown.

The statistic is misleading because it lumps in the discharge of all firearms in or around a school in that time period. The accidental discharge of legal firearms, shootings where no one was injured or present at the school and suicides all are included in the statistic. There have been 25 fatal school shootings since Columbine.

The Washington Post critiqued the “dubious” claim this week, along with the misleading statistic that there have been 18 school shootings in 2018.  MORE

  1. The dems will never do anything to fix this issue because school shootings are their only opportunity to use emotion to inspire a gun grab, registry, new laws etc. They can’t convince people guns are bad when a jihad goes off but they can always use the innocent children. And yet they still lie, over estimate numbers etc.

  2. But you know d@mn well that her cerebrally challenged followers will swallow that BS. I won’t hold my breath, but I dream of a day that the Clinton’s and their treasonous ilk will be put out of my misery.

  3. Well it’s MY lie, and I’m sticking with it!

    Fuck all you evil reactionary bastards!

    “Arise ye workers from your slumbers
    Arise ye prisoners of want
    For reason in revolt now thunders
    And at last ends the age of cant.
    Away with all your superstitions
    Servile masses arise, arise
    We’ll change henceforth the old tradition
    And spurn the dust to win the prize.”

    Über alles in der Welt,”

    Oh, wait … I need another glass of Vodka …
