House Democrats are horrified by today's shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. Our hearts are with all the families affected by this senseless tragedy. We will continue fighting in Congress to pass legislation that keeps our communities safe from gun violence.
Do something then! Grow a fucking spine and stand up for the people! Stop capitulating to billionaires and fascists! Help trans people! We need it!!!! Fuck.
FIGHT HARDER. 🤬
Then FUCKING DO SOMETHING! Jesus, Republicans kick your ass at every turn. No more mere words. ACTION GODDAMMIT!
Hey, here’s an idea America, grow a pair of balls and tackle gun culture in your god forsaken country. Nobody but nobody needs to own a weapon of war. End of.
Sure
*yawn* blah, blah, blah. Ask your kids & grandkids how they feel about this statement.
continue?
Fight harder. Why do all the disgusting GOP bills pass, but Dems cannot get gun control through?
Apparently not that horrified. The assault weapons ban passed in 1994 and even then you insanely set it to expire. Other than background checks on gun buyers under 21, you Democrats haven’t done jack shit but lip service like this for 30 plus years. You can fuck off with your “hearts and prayers.”
Well ya better fight harder than you appear to be... your country is on fire...
We shall await your long, sternly worded speech later, followed by you settling your hands back into the grooves of your asses when you return to sitting on your hands to maintain nothing getting done.
We must demand for any democratic member of congress that has served over 10 years and over 65 must be primaries with the new generation. They have fucked this country just as much as the other side.
Really? What hypocrites, you are ok with killing thousands of innocent children in Gaza. All of you are shameful and no different than the MAGA hate. I will no longer support the Democratic Party. Just as corrupt as the other side.
weird how it's been 26 years since Columbine, you've been in power multiple times and you did fuck all in that time mountains of dead kids will love your lukewarm bullshit
Democrats:" Hey guys, let's not rock the boat. We want to keep our cushy job".
You may want to start with oversight who could ask the question… was this person even on a watch list or were the FBI agents too busy dragging Americans out of their cars? www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
But those kids wanted infrastructure and bipartisanship!!!!! Thank you Democrats!
Once again, useless Tots & Pears instead of actually doing something about it.
You never do anything because Americans love murder. They love murder weapons. They wear a replica of the torture device used to kill Jesus. There are long-running TV series with every episode about murder. Gun lobby money wins every time. Who’s in your wallet?
Please block all these bots, soulless ghouls and grifters who aren’t Americans on these replies. Block them. Thank you. I can’t take the ignorance and lack of respect. They are a gop op.
Trump has made scolding our allies to pay for their own defense his signature. Someone should tell him how many billions of dollars the US taxpayer has transferred to Israel. By now probably more than a trillion dollars. Shouldn’t the STARTUP NATION stop taking handouts? Don, don’t be a sucker.
By doing what ?? You gonna pen some more strongly worded letters ?? Or wait maybe you’ll keep dragging your feet and not endorsing candidates speaking out against gun violence… your efforts are pathetic. Fuck your hearts.
Democrats tried to ban assault weapons, expand national background checks, create a national red flag law, and repeal gun manufacturers’ liability shield but Republicans stopped them. Trump repealed Biden’s executive orders such as the one creating the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention.
They had all of congress and the Whitehouse first 2 years if Biden Admin. They did not codify Roe, they did not strengthen safeguards. Did not expand the Supreme Court that has taken our rights away. They passed legislation that was killed with a stroke of a pen.
‘Tries’ is doing all of the heavy lifting in that sentence
You deleted your reply post but I will still answer -
When they have both houses and the presidency, they balk. However, understanding Robert’s Rules of Order means there is a ton of procedural shenanigans they can do to gum up the works. They can control the narrative. Less try and more ‘do’. Floating bills in a split congress is lip service.
To go along with DECADES of your party's same tired, miserable spiels ...
You’re controlled opposition bags of shit. We knew after Sandy Hook that you feckless morons were never going to do anything to stop this.. 90% support universal background checks. Vast majorities support required training and test taking. You’re all worthless seat warmers.
BAN ALL ASSAULT WEAPONS NOW!!! No more excuses.
politicalamericans.com/pres-trump-s...
You worthless fucks
What are you gonna do? Make murder MORE ILLEGAL? All you're gonna wanna do is take away people's rights, disarm legal gun owners, and turn them into criminals. SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. CAN YOU READ MOTHER FUCKER?
Really? That is all you've got? Not like you have fought hard enough up to now Congress runs home when afraid Horrified doesn't cut it Speak louder, march and protest and yell till you can't yell any louder
We are attacking and killing ourselves. Think of it! We are terrorizing ourselves! 😠
Would you do anything about it? You know, on the account of being actually being able to?
If this happened in Gaza, Democrats would be falling over themselves to justify it.
How much did each elected official take from NRA?
Easy to find. And there are millions of reasons our kids keep dying in schools. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...
I am from Canada . We have gun control and fairly strict laws with respect to care and storage of firearms and ammunition. We are horrified why a developed country cannot limit their use.
Sitting in Montreal right now. (About to take the dogs for a walk along the canal.) So nice! 100% agree. Immediately after Sandy Hook (or at least Uvalde), the US should have done what New Zealand did and dramatically reformed our gun laws.
Please repost
??
Like you did the last time Democrats held the White House and Congress? A wretched bunch of cowards.
🗑️
SHUT THE FUCK UP! You have not done anything since Columbine!
Ban the guns then!!!
Blah blah blah 🤬
Glad when you copy-pasted this formulaic response that you got the names of the school and the city right. Other than that? What have you ACTUALLY done?
They can send you a text asking for money, they’re great at that
A very tepid response. “..pass legislation that keeps our communities safe from gun violence.” How about instead: Pass legislation that bans ownership of assault wespons. Period.
excited to hear that you are sending out your hearts, being horrified, and fighting continuously until you can sneak home and trade some more stocks
Then when we get the house back do something about it. Do not pass one bit of Republican legislation. Do not accept any legislation from the Senate to be passed until gun control is part of the national platform.
When you get the majority again, PLEASE, for the love of our children, pass a gun ban already! No reason for thugs to be walking around with guns, kidnapping and shooting at people. Especially children.
Trump Effect as a permission structure www.cambridge.org/core/journal... “…in the presence of prejudiced elite speech – particularly when it is tacitly condoned by other elites – the study finds that the prejudiced are emboldened to both express and act upon their prejudices.”
Fight harder.
Words. And more words. Do better.
The DNC keeps supporting genocide by Israel, while 92% of Democrats want the US to embargo Israel. This is how you lose the midterms.
And the last election cycle. the dems are captured by the same coin purses as the republicans. We have no good representation in congress. We need more younger progressives like AOC and Zohran.
100%. Jefferies, Schumer, Pelosi, Ken Martin (DNC), etc are slaves to AIPAC murder money. Democratic voters are 92% against Israel (rightfully so).
Please.Fight.HARDER!!
Remind me, how many times have you people voted against further gun legislation?? This statement is just as empty and meaningless as your "attempts" to protect the people you claim to serve from the fascist criminals ruining your country.
You're useless fucks that have abandoned the American people on this cause and everything else.
“They cut him open to remove bullet fragments.” That’s the mother whose child was shot in the stomach as he saw his friend shot in the head. One political party is inflicting this sickness on its own citizens. Can we as humans agree to fix at least one god damn thing for everyone’s sake.
‘Continue fighting’ is code for the ABSOLUTE NOTHING you are currently doing.
As usual they’re here trying to make us seem unfathomably horrible to each other. They don’t even stop trolling when it’s the death of children that Democrats have repeatedly tried to stop w/legislation the Republicans voted down. These 🤖s are here to ensure Democrats keep getting minorities.
And notice how NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM gives Pres. Biden ANY credit for signing into law the first gun control bill in THIRTY FUCKING YEARS. It's like it didn't even happen. Memory holed by troll farm chat bots.
Are these the chatbots?
Yep one version of them.
Mankind has created this problem, Mankind can fix it. #WillPower #Priorities
Please fight harder
Work harder
Are you going to write a strongly worded letter?
NO MORE GUN MANUFACTURERS TOO MANY GUNS !NO ASSAULT WEAPONS!
My, if you keep fighting as hard as you've fought the past couple of decades, you'll fully eliminate gun violence by Twenty-Twenty-Never!
You drop bombs on Palestinian kids like it's going out of style. You don't care about anyone's kids. Just donations for your political careers.
The fight has stopped and needs to be moved forward.
If you’re serious about fighting, for anything, get rid of Schumer and Jeffries!
Continue? Continue what? NOTHING has been done for 40 years N O T H I N G! National Guard is picking trash in D.C. Armed!
And what exactly can the Democrats do about the NG picking trash? It is not like Nancy Pelosi could send them anywhere!
"WE'RE FIGHTING!" "But you got no results for like 15+ years now" "SO WHAT DO YOU WANT THEM TO DO!?" jfc. Dem party is dead.
Why are you replying with this to me? How the fuck can Democrats do anything about the National Guard in DC atm?
And yet democrats voted for some of Trump’s appointees. Can’t have it both ways.
How can you stop violence when Trump releases criminals and loosens gun laws so that criminals don’t need checks?
It’s disgusting. Kids getting gun down in their own church pews. “It’s beyond me how anyone could say there’s enough gun control”.
Also check into the relationship between violent suicide murders like this and men being prescribed estrogen/progestin: "Cautions for Estrogen-Progestin. Emotional Disorders: Exercise caution in women with a history of depression; discontinue if severe depression recurs during use."
Oh screw you lame legislatures. Get shit done now. Your spineless.
