Jessie Merkel, the father of Fletcher Merkel who was shot and killed at the Church, and friend laugh at his son’s death
On the morning of August 27, 2025, a mass shooting occurred at the Church of the Annunciation in the Windom neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. The attack took place during a scheduled school-wide Mass attended by the students and faculty of Annunciation Catholic School. The perpetrator killed 2 children, injured 21 other people, and then died by suicide; those injured were 18 children and 3 senior citizens.

The alleged Annunciation Catholic Church shooting makes this a perfect time to review our famous 12 Telltale Signs of a Fake Shooting. You remember them, don’t you?
1) No blood, no bodies, no surveillance video.
Any of one of these three alone is a tipoff that something unreal is taking place. When you get all three together, you’re definitely looking at a fake shooting.
When Nicole Brown was murdered we saw bloody corpses. At the Columbine shooting, we saw bloody corpses. We see Palestinian fathers cradling their dead and bloody, bullet-ridden daughters. The only place we never see any blood or bodies is at a fake shooting.
We also have surveillance video from real shootings. We saw that at Columbine.
At Annunciation Church shooting, we have no blood, no bodies, and no surveillance video.

2) Fake parents played by crisis actors.
Your five-year-daughter was murdered two days ago, so what do you do? If you’re a parent at one of these fake shootings, you immediately go on television, laughing and smiling. Perfectly normal behavior, right? We see it every single time.
This is one of the most telltale signs of a fake shooting. You don’t have to be an actor yourself to spot the fakery, although it helps. Just pay attention to the false emotion. The endless emoting. Then take a look at people suffering real grief. The differences will astound you.
Only 24 hours after the Annunciation Church shooting, we have Jessie Merkel, the father of one the alledgedly dead victims smiling for the camera.

3) Go Fund Me accounts set up within 24 hours of the event and sometimes before the event even takes place.
You hear a knock at the door. Outside stands a grim-faced police officer who tells you your five-year-old daughter was just killed in a school shooting. What would you do next? Well, if your a parent of a child at a fake shooting, you will immediately set up a Go Fund Me account so people can send you money.
You say you would never do such a thing? I believe you. No sane parent would. But at every fake shooting that is exactly what happens. In some cases, the Go Fund Me account is set up before the “shooting” even takes place.
We have not seen this yet.

4) Actors playing multiple roles at the same or different events.
Another telltale sign of a hoax. Good crisis actors are hard to find. That’s why you often see them playing multiple roles. The “parent” of a slain child will double as a member of a swat team, like we saw at Sandy Crook. The “mother” of a slain person will play the “mother” of another slain person. One woman has appeared at no less than five fake events.
At the Annunciation Church shooting, we have a witness claiming he held the hand of a victim that was shot in the head, and was with another victim that was shot in the neck and neither was bleeding. He sounds Gene Rosen circa 2025 https://vaticancatholic.com/mn-school-shooting-witness-says-kids-shot-in-the-head-and-neck-were-not-bleeding-must-see-video/

5) Non-stop media coverage.
24/7 coverage of a “shooting” is almost always a tipoff that it’s a hoax. You never see news coverage of any real events, do you? Speaking of which …
6) Anderson Cooper is sent out to interview the fake parents.
You never see Anderson Cooper in Chicago on a Monday morning after a weekend of gun violence, do you? No, he doesn’t have time for that. In fact, he never interviews the parents of any child that was actually killed. But every time there’s a fake shooting, he pops up immediately to interview the fake parents and get them to wail about gun control.
At Annunciation, we have had non-stop news coverage, but Anderson Cooper has not been sent to interview the parents.

7) Evidence immediately destroyed.
Immediately after a fake shooting, there will be calls to destroy the building where it took place. Why, you ask? To destroy evidence, that’s why. This includes real events as well as fake ones and goes back to 9/11 and even before then. Evidence must be destroyed to protect the guilty.
Too early for this with the Annunciation shooting.
Fake 4 Real 1
8) “Evidence” left behind at the scene.
Remember the parked car with copies of the Quran inside that were found after 9/11? Remember the pristine passport that floated down miraculously from the sky to be found among the rubble of one the three World Trade Center buildings that came down that day? Remember when every self-respecting assassin carried a copy of The Catcher in the Rye in his back pocket? Today there’s no need for such things when all that’s necessary is a fake manifesto.
Who writes a manifesto? Nobody, that’s who. Only fake shooters at fake events. Along with the destruction of evidence, this also occurs at both real and fake events.
The alledged Annunciation Church shooter left behind a manifesto, which he conveniently uploaded to YouTube.
Fake 5 Real 1
9) Drills taking place at the same time or just before the event.
From 9/11 to Sandy Crook, we always have drills occurring simultaneous to fake shootings.
We haven’t seen any evidence of that yet with Annunciation, but it’s too early to tell.
Fake 5 Real 1
10) The alleged perpetrator immediately caught or killed.
Within minutes of a fake event – and some real ones too – the entire crime is solved and the entire life history of the alleged perpetrator is written up and splashed across the mainstream media. Details that would take days, maybe even weeks, to uncover are instantly at hand and fed to the public. Gee, it’s as if the articles were written days before …
The Annunciation shooter is conveniently dead.
Fake 6 Real 1
11) Multiple shooters at every event.
At every fake shooting, eye witnesses report seeing multiple shooters. But then, within a matter of hours, statements from those witnesses are scrubbed from the internet and never brought up again. Meanwhile, the other “shooters” are never found and the entire crime is said to have been done a “lone gunman.”
At Sandy Crook there was even video footage of a “second shooter” running into the woods and getting arrested. That person was never identified or heard from again.
We do not have evidence of multiple shooters at Annunciation.
Fake 6 Real 2
12) Principles involved are former or current actors.
This is another statistical anomaly. If these fake shootings were happening in Los Angeles or New York then it might make sense that some of the people involved were actors. But the events aren’t taking place in those cities.
Why is almost everyone involved with Sandy Crook a current or former actor? Why are the two principles of the Pulse Nightclub event an actor and a game show contestant? Why is the fake Pizzagate shooter an actor? Why is the main face of the Parkland hoax a person who worked on air for CNN?
At this time, we do not have evidence that the people involved with Annunciation are actors.
Final Score: FAKE 6 Real 3
——-
How long will the cowards of America keep putting up with this staged crap?
Everything to you is fake. The shooting was real the motive was fake.
