Roughly half of Americans who support President Trump’s controversial travel executive order say that the ban is justified after the nonexistent "Bowling Green Massacre," according to a new poll by the left-leaning Public Policy Polling.

White House counsellor Kellyanne Conway referred to the massacre, which never happened, during several media appearances, including a segment on MSNBC’s “Hardball with Chris Matthews.” Over the course of the interview, the senior White House aide made several references to a “massacre” in Bowling Green, Ky. as justification for the banning citizens of seven majority-Muslim countries from travel to the United States.



Still, of those who support it, 51 percent thought Conway’s remarks about the massacre showed good reason to pursue the Jan. 27 order, which barred citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries from traveling to the U.S. Only about 23 percent of the ban’s supporters said the ban couldn't use the massacre as justification.

4. Right?

It makes me wonder if Sputnik, RT and Alex Jones claimed it was a real massacre; or equally as likely, these people are just THAT stupid and decided on their own that it was real.

2. This is how disinformation works.

These cretins know full well that there was no BG massacre. They also know that all they need do is get the idea out there and their followers will pick up on it and assume it's a fact. No amount of evidence to the contrary will change their minds.

3. These are the same folks who don't care if

Obama care goes away because they get their insurance through ACA. You really can't fix stupid.

5. I usually give people a pretty wide leeway on being up on current events, but this

is beyond imagination. The only way this many people can believe a fictitious tale like this is if they want to believe. This is willful ignorance at it's finest.

6. Well he's been shouting "Fake News" long enough that some of his zombies

are absolutely, completely, 100% convinced that CNN exists only to spread lies about Trump and everything they write and air is directed by Hollywood and paid for by George Sorros.

This leave TRUMP as the only source of Truth.

We need to wake up to what is happening and insist that our elected representatives start to discuss this in the open; before it's too late.

10. Everyone needs to start saying the gunman used an assault rifle

And claim Bowling Green as another reason to renew the assault weapons ban. That will be a fun mindfuck for these idiots.

11. Nice idea but ammosexuals hold the gun before all other gods.

I think that's been proven by the many other attacks, unfortunately.
