Deep, surprising analysis and commentary on US and world affairs with the goal to "think outside the box". Original, and different, with no ads or filler.
Once a week we'll do a deep dive into a current topic, pointing out the facts which are hidden in plain sight. The mainstream media repeat misinformation, we'll show you the obvious truth, and the little-known facts which the experts all know, but have been keeping to themselves.
Is there an epidemic of violence? No, crime is going down.
Should we accept all the asylum seekers? We already accept more than any other country.
Topics may be up-to-the-minute, or may be timeless.
All people may be good, but some are misinformed so we'll shine a light on climate change, feminism, vegetarianism, gun control, reverse-discrimination, illegal migration and the radical left.
Witty, jarring, but always kind.

S4 E13 - Today's Mass Shooting: Houston Texas
The script discusses misrepresented mass shootings in America, emphasizing that media often exaggerates these events to induce fear. It provides an example of a reported mass shooting in Houston where six men were injured but not killed, arguing that it was likely a targeted attack rather than a random act of violence. The narrator criticizes how incidents involving four or more victims are automatically categorized as mass shootings and questions the integrity of such statistics. The script advocates for focusing on real crime prevention rather than inflating numbers to support gun control agendas.
Commentary on trending issues brought to you with a moderate perspective.
They say there's a mass shooting every single day in America. Wanna see what one actually looks like? Stick around because what you're about to hear doesn't match what you've been told. Welcome to another edition of Today's Mass Shooting, the series where we take a closer look at the headlines the media wants you to panic over and expose what's really going on beneath the surface. Here's what the news said. Mass shooting in Houston, six victims, no arrests. Sounds terrifying, right? You hear the phrase mass shooting, and instantly an image pops into your head. A public place, random victims, a crazed white male in a MAGA hat, an AR 15 dozens, dead chaos in broad daylight. But what if I told you that the event behind this headline looked nothing like that at all? Let's take a look at what really happened. This happened in the early morning hours of March 23rd, 2025. Just outside Houston, Texas. The location, a place called Latinas Sports Bar, an after hours club that was open illegally and serving alcohol passed the legal cutoff the time. Three o'clock in the morning, the shooter opened, fired and injured six men, all of them survived. Police said it was probably not a random attack. In other words, the shooter probably knew the victims. Surveillance cameras caught a black Toyota Corolla leaving the scene. And that's all we know for now. And here's what wasn't in the news. There's no mention of the weapon, and that tells you a lot. If there had been an AR 15 or a so-called"ghost gun". A Glock switch or high capacity magazines, we would've heard about it. So why is this being counted as a mass shooting? Because the Gun Violence Archive, the site behind the numbers you hear in the media counts every incident where four or more people are shot. It doesn't matter if it's a gang fight, a bar brawl, or a family dispute. If four people get hit. Even if they all survive, even if they don't even go to the hospital, it's a mass shooting and the media runs with that number because they are corrupt. Was this a lunatic gunning down strangers at a concert? No. Was it politically motivated? No. Was it even random? Doesn't look like it, but it still got logged into the national tally of mass shootings. The same one they cite every time. There's a real tragedy, a real mass shooting. You've heard the line,"There have been over 500 mass shootings this year" and this a 3:00 AM bar fight with no fatalities is one of them. This is how the public gets manipulated. The numbers are technically accurate, but emotionally dishonest. Now, let's be clear. Every act of violence is serious and every life matters, but if we want to reduce violence, the government and law enforcement need to focus on the real problems. How about cracking down on illegal after hours clubs, or targeting known gang activity? And repeat violent offenders. How about prioritizing actual crime prevention instead of inflating stats to scare the public into supporting gun control, that wouldn't have stopped this incident anyway. That's why Today's Mass Shooting exists: to pull back the curtain and show you what's really being counted. So the next time someone says there's a mass shooting every day in America, ask them, was it random? Was it public? Was it deadly or was it just another manipulated headline? Because when you know the facts, the fear loses its grip. Stay smart, stay free, and we'll see you next time on Today's Mass Shooting.
