The GOP holds the majority and could pass a law today to protect our children Instead, they’re scolding us for saying “prayers aren’t enough” when babies are gunned down while praying in church To those in Congress who claim faith— Bloodshed isn’t inevitable. It’s your choice

The failure of prayers to stop gun violence is self evident. Let’s start by passing gun safety laws that 80% of gun owners agree with. See where that gets us

Absolutely. I’m a gun owner and would happily support common sense laws. Like not giving Gibson back his guns

Americans can't understand that their entire political and justice systems are just scams created by the corporate oligarchic plutocracy that really runs the show... Politicians just protect the interests of their "donors" not the common people. But they still believe they live in a "democracy"...

The GOP/MAGA are convenient Christians. They care nothing for children. A 9 yr old is being forced to carry her stepfather’s baby. Meanwhile they protect pedophiles at all costs. Prayers without action are just religious thoughts and nothing more.

They are the ones who only protect the rich and their donors. Look up to see how much money comes from the gun lobbies and manufacturers. GOP really does stand for Guns over People so stop pretending you care about these tragedies. No one believes your false prayers.

It’s hard to understand that anyone in power would choose money over safety, yet that is exactly what is happening. If republicans wanted to safeguard our children, they could do so right now. They made their choice, too bad about some kid that gets killed. No worries, my constituents love me.

They would rather "support" the gun industry, the newly created "gun armory industry" where backpacks, coats, and bookcases are armor proof for the students to use... They would rather spend millions putting in 'safe rooms' & teaching churches 'security' & how to shoot. For-profit and his Jesus.

I'll go further: Dead children is the cost of our lax gun laws, and it is a cost Republicans are willing to pay. And why are they willing to pay this cost? Because it increases gun industry profits. There is no other reason. Reasonable gun laws could end the bloodshed while maintaining gun rights.
