That's not right.

While the country mourns the senseless loss of life after the 18th school shooting of 2018, President Donald Trump Tweeted who he thinks is culpable, leaving people shocked and livid. At 4:12am Thursday morning, Trump Tweeted that the students and parents at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, bear responsibility for their tragedy.

"Neighbors and classmates knew he was a big problem. Must always report such instances to authorities, again and again!"


Trump's Tweet likely resulted from recriminations he and other National Rifle Association beneficiaries received in the wake of the shooting, following his pattern of lashing back at critics on Twitter. But beyond the shock and anger, Twitter also had some information for the president.

People suggest it might be time for President Trump to put down his phone and work on real solutions to gun violence in the United States. Wednesday's school shooting marks the 18th in 2018. We're only halfway through February.

A 'Fake Egg' Prank Targeting Kids Is Trending On TikTok—But Not Everyone Thinks It's Funny

In a recent TikTok trend, people are presenting young children with "fake eggs" and crushing the egg in their hands to show that the eggs are fake.

In order for this trend to work, the person has to poke a hole into each end of the egg to drain it of its yolk and let the shell dry, so it becomes more brittle and easy to crush, making the prank more believable.

Guy Sparks Debate After Abandoning Girlfriend In Economy While He Booked Himself A First Class Seat On Flight
