Rumormongers paint false picture

AFTER THE SHOOTING in Las Vegas that left 59 people dead and more than 500 injured, the whole world extended its sympathy to the victims. Yet a video was spread online with misleading intent. Wang Tong, assistant to editor-in-chief of Beijing Literature magazine, comments:

The video shows some US residents walking into supermarkets to demonstrate their legal right to carry guns. Those spreading it online claimed it happened after the most recent attack. But it was actually shot in 2014 after a mass shooting at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Worse, those spreading the video also told lies about overseas Chinese remaining idle after the mass shooting incident in Las Vegas, while the reality is that Chinese helped to save lives in the tragedy along with others.
