Stone wasn't a "prankster", he planned the Stoneman Douglas mass-killings for his pal Alex Jones.
Jones had just lost his paying gig for saying Columbine was staged, remember?
Stone demonstrated that it was possible - by arranging a mass-killing at a high school.

Step 1. Find a wacko.
Facebook made that easy.
Everybody saw this, but nobody realized that this nutjob put the MAGA cap on his mother's head in her coffin BEFORE the killing spree.

Step 2. Recruit the wacko.
He's nuts and a wacko, and Stone's a celebrity in the MAGA cult.
Easy.
Done.
Step 3. Call in a favor from local Broward County Sheriff Israel, who owed him.

Step 4. Tell the Sheriff that it's just a "media event", and he needs the Sheriff's deputies to provide security for the event. Nobody wants a stranger to shoot the kid with real bullets - The kid's just shooting blanks.
Step 5. Let the slaughter begin.
The Sheriff's deputies are outside providing security for what they think is a hoax.
The Police dispatchers taking the 911 calls know it's real. The cops don't fall for the cover story and enter the school guns drawn.

Step 5. (sorry, I lost count)
Wait for the cops to kill the wacko.
That didn't go as planned. The wacko put the AR-15 down and exited the school alive.
He was caught eating a burger.
As expected, Democratic candidates demand banning AR-15s.
There are ~10Mil AR-15 owners.

And in a close race, Democrats can't afford to lose their votes.
Gun owners may be disgusted by Trump, but they want to keep their guns, and they know Trump won't take them.
Democrats probably won't, either, but they don't want to risk it.
