One of the biggest problems with “fake news” is that it isn’t just mainstream media or manipulative sites practicing it. Social media has empowered people to create and share fake news in seconds. When celebrities get involved, this false information can spread quickly. Such is the case with a liberal source, anti-gun activist Shannon Watts, and a liberal celebrity, actress Alyssa Milano.
Between the two, they were able to get thousands of likes, retweets, and comments on the outrageously false statement that there are no regulations on “long guns” in Texas and no background checks. This is so blatantly false I won’t even link to the truth. You can do that yourself if you don’t believe it. Start by searching for 18 U.S.C. 922(t); 27 CFR 478.102. Here are the Tweets:
That means he’s prohibited purchaser, but there’s absolutely no regulation of long guns (AR15s) in Texas. No background check required. https://t.co/H0oqxgEsx9

It’s bad enough that we have leftwing media pushing out the idea that Devin Patrick Kelley didn’t go through a background check when he actually failed one. To smear the state of Texas itself with such ludicrous Tweets is why the gun control lobby should never be taken seriously. If they would simply stick to the facts and work with politicians to improve enforcement of existing laws rather than pushing to add new ones, we might get somewhere. Instead, they really just want us all to give up our firearms. That’s a good thing to them… as long as they or their bodyguards don’t have to do the same.

Anti-gun fanatic and Dana Loesch stalker Shannon Watts has been doing what she does for the last 24 hours or so since the horrific events in Texas. Namely, going nuts about guns and paying no attention to the man behind the gun.
And as usual, she sucks in easily-led celebrities and other societal elites with her false claims.
