JESSE WATTERS (HOST): The use of the phrase "mass shooting" is interesting. Typically, a mass shooting is defined as an incident in which four or more people are killed. By that definition there weren't any mass shootings this weekend.

But the media likes to fudge the numbers. According to Al Jazeera of all places, there were either six or 818 mass shootings last year, depending on who's keeping the records.

So why is the media lying to you? Why are they reporting that there were 10 mass shootings when there weren't, by their own definition?

This is why. The media is crafty. They want to link the Uvalde and Buffalo mass shootings to inner city gang shootouts with handguns. That way they can justify taking your rifle away. They're padding the numbers with Black-on-Black crime, something they never report on, in order to strip law-abiding citizens of their constitutional rights.
