Fact-checking is an odd industry. We’ve seen plenty of examples of “fact-checks” that seemingly dispute the actual facts, ignoring the plethora of evidence supporting an initial claim, all because the fact-checker really wanted the claim to be false.

The RAND Corporation, a research group, could not find any credible studies showing that laws allowing armed staff in schools either increased or decreased school shootings and violence in a Jan. 10, 2023, research review. […]
