After a gunman killed seventeen people during a Valentine's Day 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, a number of ideas were floated in order to prevent future gun violence. Some pundits and politicians suggested arming and training teachers; others wanted to ban the AR-15 and similar weapons. According to the entertainment web site 8shit.net, President Donald Trump had a more outlandish solution. The site published an article on 23 February 2018, stating that President Trump's plan to stop school shootings was to ban schools altogether: 8shit.net is a satire web site that traffics nearly exclusively in pieces of fiction. A disclaimer is readily available on the site: Although Trump has not suggested banning schools altogether, he has offered number of ideas, such as raising the minimum age to purchase a gun to 21, arming gun adept teachers, and banning bump stocks.
