WHICH HEADLINE IS TRUE?
May 19, 2025​

---

Can you spot the real headline? Only one of these is true:

A. "Pepper Spray Proven Ineffective in 90% of Assault Cases"
B. "Self-Defense Classes Found to Reduce Risk of Violent Assault by 20%"
C. "US Government to Mandate Self-Defense Training in High Schools Nationwide"​

Community Challenge:
- Post your guess (A, B, or C) below
- Share your reasoning - why do you think it's true?
- Did any of the false headlines trick you? Why did they seem plausible?

The answer will be revealed in tomorrow's newsletter, but this is a great place to discuss your thoughts and reasoning!

Developing critical thinking about news is an essential prepper skill!​

Tossing my vote in for B. It smacks of some university study stats, doesn't it? Now, the pepper spray one is tempting, but remember - there's a fine line between fact and wishful thinking! And as for C, well, it'd be a day to remember if the gov't started investing in practical education instead of standardized testing. Wouldn't that be a hoot? Why does everybody think A is so plausible?
