      It should be said that “news” sites like this are a common right-wing grift: sell a story in the headline that that angry reactionaries will click on to get that hit of indignant rage.

      If you think about the stories for five seconds, they fall apart; but clickfarms like the one in the link know that conservatives will spread incendiary headlines like this without even a shred of skepticism.

      Their business model depends on it, and they’re eating very well.

      Pretty much all the time. It might be a slap on the wrist or something when they kill someone, but giving the ahead to kill people isnt common.
