Many don’t “fall” for hoaxes. They are pursuing a malignant agenda.

Dear Lindsey, Not once was this story settled or even believable...

So if an abortion doctor puts a slip knot around a fetus and pulls it out, that’s a lynching crime?

Consider it a “medical procedure “, advancing a woman’s “right to choose”.

The left needs to F’n grow up. Everything’s gotten beyond ridiculous. It’s like the truth is their enemy.

Someone will eventually write a two line retraction - that no one will read or see... Then when the next liberal liar spins a story too stupid to believe the leftwing journalist will fall for the BS all over again.

THE LIST:

So you believe Kavanaugh then? Because he suffered greatly due to lies by the left!

Many were “baffled” from the very beginning, because the story just didn’t ring true.

Same goes for the "Hands Up Don't Shoot" fabrication that many still think actually happened in Ferguson, MO.

But it never did and yet many relate it as proof the police killed an innocent little choir boy while he had his hands up surrendering.

Now it's etched in history for people to think that's what really happened.

love mollie- very smart woman unafraid of telling the truth to the faces of the rabid hateful left-

The media desperately want stories about con lies as though it were gospel fact- when it turns out to be a lie- do the left feel shame for being so stupid? Nope- they move right on to the next potential bombshell- then the next, then the next-

The left are too stupid to even know what ‘shame’ means- sadly- and like mollie said- when they get called out for being so ignorant, instead of admitting their mistake, they lash out like little kids-

Unfortunately, they have a lot of support in their ignorance, because the whole MSM practically is corrupt, evil, and chomping at the bit for any negative news on conservative- I’m sure many go so far as to hope that the criminals are conservative, trump supporters- and are disappointed when they find out they aren’t

this is a stupid bill. Lynching is already illegal.

Didn’t some Black Felon Dude “lynch” five People (using a Gun) in Aurora, IL a few days ago?

Haven’t heard a lot about that Mass Shooting. Wonder why?

Fake hate crimes are depressingly common, but what is different is TWO nationally covered stories proven false and given NATIONAL coverage on the retraction.

It is proof of not just fake news but fake hate crimes that normally only get reported on a back page when retracted months later.

The best database tracking the hundreds of fake hate crimes is:
