Miguel at Gun Free Zone has a great post about how Moms Demand Action are busy making fudge.

Fudge as in fudging the truth into some bastardized “facts” to promote their flawed message.

What flavor of fudge are the Mommies making up in the kitchen? They’re trying to claim that most every mass shooting incident has not occurred in a gun-free zone. How are they coming up with that? They aren’t relying on the FBI’s definition of a mass shooting, but instead counting crime scenes in private homes.

Why not post the actual article at the actual site, rather than link to a site, telling us where the article is?

“Using FBI data and media reports, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of every identifiable mass shooting between January 2009 and July 2014. There have been more than 110 mass shootings in the last 6 years.”

Unfortunately this is the kind of lie that will get picked up and propagated by the media and other leftist anti-gun propaganda merchants.

It will live on even if it has been proven to be a lie.

Given the current resident of the White House, the FBI may even change the definition of mass shooting to match the Mom’s interpretation.

By their calculus, the minute a shooter enters a school “gun-free” zone, it becomes a gun zone, so school shootings never occur in gun free zones. Lunatics.

From Mother Jones, no friend of the gun owner: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/mass-shootings-mother-jones-full-data

Look at how many mass shootings were in gun free zones and how, in some years, there was only one mass shooting (granted one too many for those who were there).
