Another tragic mass shooting, this time at a beloved fast-food chain, with corporate media scrambling to shape the narrative. Dale Schultz, a 66-year-old from Utah, was gunned down while charging his Tesla. You can already see the playbook being rolled out—CNN and MSNBC will frame this as “gun violence” in an attempt to fuel their anti-Second Amendment agenda. Meanwhile, Fox News might take a “let’s ask why this happened” approach, hinting at societal breakdown but stopping short of calling out the root of the problem.

What’s missing from all of this? Personal responsibility and the reality that criminal behavior isn’t simply a symptom of gun availability. It’s quite telling how these narratives diverge; one side effectively demonizes lawful gun ownership while the other tiptoes around the idea that community breakdown leads to violence. The killer’s motives? An inconvenient discussion that will likely be swept under the rug. Instead, they’ll focus on Dale, making his story a cautionary tale while forgetting to ask deeper questions about mental health, societal values, and family structures.

And let’s not even pretend these outlets are unbiased players. They’re capitalizing on tragedy for ratings. Make no mistake: this isn’t about helping victims; it’s about advancing their agendas. If you think the left will suddenly become advocates for mental health resources following this incident, think again. They’d rather keep the narrative juiced with fear and outrage to push through tougher gun control laws that infringe on our rights.
