NPR: Over 66 Percent of Claimed Shootings Never Happened

NPR examined a U.S. Education Department study and discovered that over 66 percent of reported school shootings for 2015-2016 school year never occurred.

The Education Department claims there were “nearly 240 schools … [which] reported at least 1 incident involving a school-related shooting.”

But NPR contacted schools and districts and was able to substantiate that 161 of the incidents “never happened.” They verified that something did occur in four instances, “but it didn’t meet the government’s parameters for a shooting.”

Exactly, just the media continuing to lie to you all, and since you all only believe the media, how would you know you were lied to?

Like I said in a comment the other day about something on the media, this is just so the media can make up stories to and lie to you, and you will never know becasue you won't research anything... So they can keep you dumb and ill-informed and so they can make more money since you people only pay attention during a shooting...

It is the same as all those so called Rapes that are reported here in Salisbury, never happened folks. Chief Duncan and our Mayor said so.
