FREEDOM FORCE: Here’s What The Media Didn’t Tell You About Last Week’s Mass Shooting (If They Even Mentioned It At All)

Written by Philip Hodges Mar 5, 2016

Last week on Thursday, February 25^th, there was a mass shooting that took place in Hesston, Kansas at Excel Industries, a lawn care equipment manufacturing plant. Three people were killed, and 14 others were injured. Witnesses said that the suspect would have likely kept shooting until he was out of rounds, but he was shot and killed by a Harvey County deputy.
It seems like an incident that would get a good bit of coverage from the national media, especially considering that the murderer – a convicted felon – used an AK-47-style semi-automatic rifle and a Glock .40-caliber handgun. But there was barely a blip in the national media about this mass shooting.
