NPR Contributor Attempts to Cover Up Australian Mass Shootings

By Bob Owens

You can fool some people all of the time, and most people some of the time, but a University of California-Berkeley psychology professor seems to think that she can fool NPR readers all of the time.

While attempting to support the Obama Administration’s new push to force mandatory gun buybacks, Tania Lombrozo made the following claim about Australia’s gun laws.

Last year, President Obama suggested the U.S. follow Australia’s example by adopting a strict gun ban on semi-automatic and automatic weapons. Australia hasn’t had a mass shooting since it enacted the legislation in 1996.

I quickly called Lombrozo and NPR on her claim.

Lombrozo then asked for evidence.

I provided it.
