The burden of proof is not on me to disprove your fantasy. Multiple news organizations reported the story and the police were involved. You have zero evidence other that your gut feeling, which makes all this talk of statistics and math even more hilarious.
Same story from one source reported over and over again. I know how the media works and this doesn't count.
It's like arguing with a creationist or a 9/11 truther. Everyone else is wrong cause I believe something else.
You have a video of the incident like there was for 9/11? I think there's a lot more evidence there than for this one. Again, it's like WMDs in Iraq. A really dubious story with not a lot of plausibility behind it, reads like NRA fan-fiction and was written by a far-right news organization. If you really are that gullible to believe this story as completely true then I've got a bridge to sell to you.
PS: A few years back, when I was discussing that we need at least some gun control after the Aurora theater shooting, someone repeated almost exactly the same words you did: "debating gun control supporters was 'like arguing with a creationist.'" Apparently in his mind, any kind of gun control was crazy, and compared it to creationism. Somehow he could square that logic.
Well, we sure moved a long way since then. Supporting gun control at all is now a valid position. You can actually support some kind of gun control and not get that level of criticism. But today, I'm finding myself being compared again in the same way when pointing out that politically motivated armed self-defense stories are bullshit. Basically history is repeating for me. While I don't know what the future will bring, I have a hunch that we'll start to accept that these kinds of stories are really just propaganda and are rarely true. Not necessary completely made up, just dressed up in order to scare people in buying more guns.
