Isn't the Onion the one that reposts the school shooting article with only the date changed everytime a shooting happens in the states? To my knowledge its a real news article

Edit: Found it, it seems though the last time they updated it was in 2022, but its basically a non satire response to the fact that absolutely nothing is being done to deal with the state's problem with mass shootings

What do you mean, nothing is being done? They're giving more people guns! Surely that will solve the problem!

No no, fakes names and misattributed quotes means it's satire
