Chelsea Handler: It Took the Coronavirus Lockdown for U.S. to Go a Month Without a School Shooting(PUKE Notice!)
Breitbart.com ^ | 4/17/2020 | AWR Hawkins

Comedian Chelsea Handler suggest that it took lockdowns for the country to go a month without a school shooting but failed to acknowledge that this occurred just as there were more firearm background checks than anytime on record.

“Last month was the first March without a school shooting in the United States since 2002. It took all schools to be closed and everyone forced to be inside because of a pandemic, but we finally did it,” Chelsea Handler said.

Ironically, Handler did not mention that there were more firearm background checks in March 2020 than any month, in any year, since background checks for gun purchases were implemented in 1998.

Breitbart News reported FBI numbers showing a record-setting 3,740,688 background checks were conducted in March alone. Yet not only were there no school shootings but there were no high-profile mass shootings in other public setting either. This, despite the surge in gun sales.

THEY always leave out that part. And, she missed a YUGE chance at guilting us about how much better gaia is doing since this started. Again, if it only took a month+ to clean up, how bad must it have been in the first place? Hey shell-sea-------fah Q!

Sure. In Chicago they shoot them on the basketball courts, outside of the schools or the school hours, because there are no school hours in a shut-down. So?

Chelsea Handler, the prey that James Carville was pursuing when dragging a $20 bill through a trailer park.

So, what she is saying is that home schooling kids stops mass school shootings. It must be the school’s fault.

Great observation there, Chelsea. Public schools are a quagmire with no exit plan. Time to pull out. Do it for the children.

Chicago is picking up the slack:

https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/inside-chicagos-other-pandemic-gun-violence/2257043/

After substantial annual decreases, this year has seen a 23% jump in shootings in Chicago over the same period last year, according to police data.

School shootings are by kids who have severe mental and emotional problems. However, most school shootings are done by these kids TRIGGERED by being bullied.

So, those snot-nosed kids who are cruel with those different and very troubled kids didn’t get a chance to do THEIR part in causing school shootings.

Today a good portion of the teachers or people taking up the slack for worthless teacher union types, own firearms in the domestic schoolhouse

Time to pull out.

Ideally that would have happened long before the demonratcommiescumbags completed mating. And then there’s less of them to deal with.

I just had a weird thought yesterday...about the long lines at these grocery stores. People are standing ducks.

Don’t worry Chelsea “Piss Face” Handler, we’ll make up for it with increases in Murders, Suicides and Drug related deaths due to the Government caused Depression.

The way the gun grabbers define a school shooting -- to include midnight drug deals gone bad near a school -- I doubt that there haven't been any "school shootings".
