Who, me?

A 17-year old kid reads a post on a website, encouraging patriots to come and defend their country because the invading rebel hordes are trying to take over. He takes his gun, shoots a couple of people, and gets himself arrested.

On pm they had an interview with the guy who put up the original post. No, it wasn’t his fault. The kid was under age, and by the laws of his state he shouldn’t be going out with a rifle. His parents should have stood at the door, stopping him from going out. But he personally took no responsibility at all for what happened.

It beggars belief. This is violent, dangerous rabble-rousing, and you’d at least expect the rabble-rousers to face the consequences of what they’ve done. But no. They’ve had lessons from the Great Evader, the liar in charge of the White House, and everything can be covered with the soothing blanket of Fake News.
