This @nytimes story lauding China’s “humanitarian efforts” to combat the pandemic that it started may as well have been written by the communist party. It only admits that China is actually *selling* medical equipment to Italy in paragraph 28.

This is a lie. The shooter was an adult male who shot someone for reasons unrelated to the protests. There were no 13-year olds involved. Body cam footage proves that. But hey, why should we expect honesty from a guy who publicly harassed a Target employee over a toothbrush?

Unless they all magically decided to carry a gun to church for the first time that day, we know that they regularly carried concealed handguns and never hurt anybody. But they had them when they needed to protect themselves from a criminal who was prohibited from buying a gun.
