That is when she started receiving the disgusting tweets and reposting. Can you explain the date discrepancy
The Bloomberg/Shannon alleged tweet already existed for 6 months, she perhaps was already familiar with receiving bogus quotes ascribed to her. The nrablock escapade simply highlights the practice of it.
Neither Everytown nor Moms (combined now) ever wanted to ban all guns; it's incongruous that Shannon watts wrote that tweet that both she & Bloomberg wanted all guns gone, to put herself as a spokesman for bloomberg.
It is more conceivable that Shannon watts reposted a bogus tweet herself, than that she actually ever tweeted the original version - OR - it is a bogus quote altogether falsely attributed to her.
Feel free to provide a reputable link which corroborates that Shannon watts wrote that, & that it's not a repost of a malicious tweet or a bogus tweet.
