Four Wounded in Ohio Walmart Shooting
The Spin
Left narrative
How many more people need to be shot and killed for something to change in the US? Mass shootings continue to take thousands of lives every year, yet we continue the same cycle of offering “thoughts and prayers” while ignoring America’s gun problem. People cannot even go to the store without worrying if a gunman carrying an assault rifle will wreak havoc. Words are not enough. The citizenry demands action.
Right narrative
One side is always quick to politicize a tragedy as soon as it happens, but there are some important facts to address regarding the Ohio Walmart shooting. First, the only casualty was the shooter himself. Second, the classification of mass shootings is a disingenuous measure meant to frame the gun debate in an anti-Second Amendment manner. We should focus on a speedy recovery for the victims, not cheap political points.
