Mass shootings: Politicization and selective coverage by the media and the left

Whenever there is a mass shooting the tactics of the media and the left are ALWAYS the same. Always. So is the end game.
1) Generate FEAR (the more the better)
The media and the left want people to be in a constant state of fear and panic. In this state we think less rationally and are much more susceptible to suggestion. It's a psychological operation.

Big Fear = Big Government.
They want to scare the public right into the welcoming arms of The State. When mass shootings are involved we know all too well what solution they have in mind.

2) Downplay Bravery
Bravery is the opposite of fear. For maximum fear they need to downplay bravery. That is why law enforcement, first responders, and heroic citizens are more often than not treated as an afterthought. This is why it is important to elevate bravery.

3) Generate Revenue "If it bleeds it leads"
The ratings generated by mass shootings as well other tragic events are profitable. Headlines and images are as shocking as possible in order to generate traffic and increase ratings.

4) Glorification of the Shooter
Wall to wall headlines/images have a drastic effect. They glorify the shooter and carnage. Deranged minds see the headlines and seek the same fame and attention. A seed is planted generating future revenue. Media has zero incentive to not do this

The numbers of dead and wounded should not be included in headlines. The only photos of the shooter should be of a crumpled body on the ground. (preferably dead)
5) The Blame Game
The goal is to assign responsibility to opponents for political gain. The media and the left accomplishes this goal by identifying an aspect of the shooter that they can exploit.

Get Whitey!
Depending on the ethnic background of the shooter, the volume will be either turned up to 11 or muted. If caucasion, it will be emphasized to the nth degree and used to demonize all caucasions. If not, the ethnic background will be de-emphasized and even ignored.

It's Trump's Fault!
Everything is Trump's fault. The shooter was simply motivated by Trump no matter what. Even if the shooter hated Trump, it was his hatred of Trump that drove him insane. Never mind that it was the left and media that generated and fueled the hate. (Dayton)

The shooter could even have a deranged manifesto that cites illegal immigration, corporations, automation, and the environment for reasons. The manifesto can even specifically say that the act had nothing to do with Trump. Doesn't matter. (El Paso)
Gun Control
Total and complete gun control is the end game, and as always with the left, the ends justify the means. Any gun control law no matter how minor will be fully exploited and yet another step down the slippery slope to full and complete gun control.

Universal Background Checks
A federal database that could monitor, impede and even block the sale or gift of a legal good between law abiding citizens. Could also be used to target people for persecution and/or confiscation. A huge power grab and major win for The State.

Red Flag Laws
These laws would create an avenue for persecution and confiscation using a legal system based on denunciation. Think Salem Witch Trials and you get the idea of where this could lead.

Gun Confiscation
The ultimate fantasy of the left. A law that results in shoot outs from coast to coast between law enforcement and legal gun owners is a win win. They march steadily towards a world where only The State and criminals own fire arms.

Guns do not kill people. Guns are inanimate objects that do not kill, just like a blunt object, a knife, or motor vehicle. Not counting self defense or accidents it is sick people that kill people.
Legislation aimed at making it more difficult for sick people to obtain fire arms will not address the greater problem of moral and spiritual decay that faces our beloved country. Things will steadily get worse unless there is a revival.
Fight the media. Fight the left. Fight tyranny. Fight The State.
