If the cause of gun control is so righteous and noble, they why do gun ban advocates feel the need to lie?
From the Kentucky Lantern:
Everytown for Gun Safety says a man who spoke at a February rally for gun safety it helped organize in Frankfort lied about his experience surviving a school shooting.
The event, which the Lantern and other media outlets covered, happened Feb. 12 in the Kentucky State Capitol. Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action hosted a variety of speakers who advocated against gun violence.
One of the speakers, Calvin Polachek, said that when he was a high school student in Pennsylvania, he lost people in a school shooting, including claiming that he saw his best friend lying in a pool of blood.
Polachek “is not an active volunteer with Moms Demand Action or Students Demand Action, and we are deeply disappointed that someone would exploit the tragic, lived experience of many to use our platform to share a story that was not true,” Sarah Boland Heine, the senior director of communications for Everytown, said in a Wednesday statement. The Lantern reached out to Moms Demand Action, which is part of the Everytown gun safety group network, after receiving numerous messages from people who said they were classmates or relatives of Polachek and that the shooting never happened…
So it wasn’t even a real murder spree (or attempted mass murder spree) where this guy was nowhere near, but in fact the whole thing was made up!
And for Everytown claims to be “deeply disappointed” that someone would “exploit” tragedy. From the people who dance in the blood of murder spree victims before their blood has dried and the bodies have cooled.
