Sympathy and charity are the natural reactions to a tragedy. Using the deaths of innocent people as an immediate platform for political gain is inhuman.
So, naturally, thats the route Hollywood elitists chose to take just hours after the school shooting in Santa Fe that left 10 dead and several injured. Actors and actresses attacked everything they could get their hands on with blind, misdirected rage and virtuous grandstanding. It was like a wake of ghoulish vultures, screeching YOUR PRAYERS DONT WORK.
As politicians and others offered their thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families, eager entertainers pounced on the sympathy and tore it to shreds. Producer Andy Lassner tweeted, Thoughts and prayers is politician speak for I need gun lobby money. Actress Mia Farrow stated, Prayer does not replace action. WE NEED RATIONAL GUN LAWS.
The attacks on faith continued. Actor Billy Eichner retweeted Vice President Pences statement about the shooting, and responded, Forget your thoughts and prayers. You've been praying since Columbine. YOUR PRAYERS DON'T WORK. Can the rest of us rational thinking people actually try to do something about this now???

Think it is time that we outlaw guns from TV, movies and video games. Easy peasy. Stop the violence that we hear and see every day. Kids won’t be weapon trained by 12. Make movies about the good not the evil.
They may need to bring the Brady bunch back to life. Remember HCI and Pete shields?
Ditto 1000x concur
As an American, you dont have the right to take my gun.
As an American, you do have the right to defend school children with a gun.
I strongly suggest you do that.
Huge numbers of Americans are killed by cars. Is anybody calling for car control? What about demands to do something about cancer?
They took a break from raping and molesting people give a statement already written for them?
The answer to that rhetorical question is that the left cares about the lives of school children as much as they care about the lives of the unborn IF IT ADVANCES THEIR MARXIST AGENDA. Can you say "THEY DON'T CARE"?
All movies, video games and other media which glorify murders should be banned.
Mark Hamill destroyed an entire Death Star with 1.7 million military personnel and 400,000 droids. Joss Whedon doesn't like guns but he isn't opposed to vampires and demons killing and eating human flesh. Sure, fictional but don't go preaching.
Hollywood should be a gun free zone.
Sayeth the godless gun-grabbers.
Isn’t it ironic that the left hates God and the Santa Fe scumbag was Atheist? We on the right will pray and do what it takes to prevent this. The problem solving all American problems is the left’s agenda and the fact that they have caused most of the problems in the first place. Yes, that is simplistic and we are to blame for not being proactive pushing back at the left.
Sammy Hagar looks angry.
