Republicans Send "Thoughts And Prayers" To The Latest US Mass Shooting In Miami

If only people drinking and dancing at the club were armed, the bad guys with guns could have been stopped.

Now is not the time to discuss gun controls.

The latest conspiracy theories are being fabricated as we speak. Stay tuned for the latest Republican excuses, deflections, and talking points to be released later today. The Republican propaganda machine runs a little slower on holiday weekends.

I seriously think that the democrats have something to do with this shit because when Trump was president there were no mass shootings at all.
If my country leaves terrorism on purpose just so the president stays in power I don't see why yours wouldn't. Governments are so fucked up and they would do such things.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether there were actually mass shootings under the Trump administration.
@basilfawlty89 But as much as there is now? Not really. I don't know I'm just saying how I feel because Biden and Obama created ISIS so everything is possible at this point.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether From a few seconds of googling I found that there were 611 just last year and there have been 232 so far this year (as of May 26th). It's really too soon to tell. But it's unlikely the gvmt even has anything to do with it, considering most of them don't get a noticeable amount of coverage outside their relative area.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Not only were there many mass shootings when Trump was president, Trump incited some of them. Remember the El Paso killings of 22 Hispanics? 61 dead and over 500 wounded by a Trump nut in Las Vegas? 27 dead at a church shooting at Sutherland Springs, Tx? 10 dead at a high school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas? 13 dead at a bar in Thousand Oaks, California? 10 more dead in Dayton? Here is a listing:

Your memory is faulty. Or deliberately selective. Maybe you've been sending too many thoughts and prayers and then forgetting them.
@windinhishair I'm not American so you do know better and I'm alright with that because it makes sense that you do. This is still is fucked up and needs to stop. People who are simply having a good time don't deserve to die in this disturbing way 😔

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether It is very much fucked up. I follow the news, but when I was looking at the listing before posting it, there were many mass murders I had never even heard of. It is so bad that only the worst ones get much press any more. The smaller mass killings don't even make the national news, only local news.

It does need to stop. If other countries can do it, the US should be able to as well.

@windinhishair Mass shootings with four or more fatalities make the news. There are shootings in the U.S. daily in random places.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Wow, okay. Yeah. Joe Biden is behind the mass shootings.
@LordShadowfire Whatever man. The 2 persons above got my final point and I have nothing but respect for them, go read my replies above ☝

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether There were plenty of mass shootings under Trump. Things calmed down during the pandemic, that’s all.

@QuixoticSoul When people aren't congregating, you can't kill massive numbers of them.

@windinhishair Hmmmmmm... perhaps another quarantine is needed? 😆

@LordShadowfire Sometimes unintended consequences can be good coming from a bad situation. Flu cases and deaths were way down this year due to the masks and social distancing.
@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Under Trump within 24 hours of each other, two of the worst mass shootings took place in modern US history.
@PiecingBabyFaceTogether For a Troll this is a great answer. Nice one.
