Florist declines to service Republican National Committee event: 'The blood of the 3 beautiful babies we lost in Nashville is on that money'

A Nashville flower business announced that it refused to service a Republican National Committee event, claiming that there is blood on the RNC's money and urging other companies to decline to do business with the GOP until it starts changing gun laws.

In a statement posted on social media, FLWR Shop described the event as an "RNC fundraising event" that would feature former President Donald Trump and other prominent Republicans. "We would like to challenge others in the Nashville event industry to say no to taking money or jobs from the Republican party until they begin to make the changes to gun laws that most Americans are calling for," the statement declares.

The event being referenced appears to be the RNC Donor Retreat in Nashville, for which special guests listed include Trump, former Vice President Mike Pence, governors, lawmakers, and others.

"We have a lot of clients that are conservatives, and we respect their views and appreciate their business. We feel like there is room in America for liberals, conservatives, and everyone in between," the business wrote in response to the request for service. "Unfortunately, this event and some of the speakers listed are beyond our comfort level.

"Our community has just lost seven people, including three young children, to yet another school shooting. At this moment I cannot ignore the work that the RNC has done to create this tragedy and so many others just like it," the message reads. "The Republican Party has wasted taxpayer money and precious legislative will on banning drag shows, rather than rifles that are being used to murder children in their classrooms."

Sue the florists and have a judge order them to make the arrangements or pay millions of dollars. If Nashville or Tennessee have a human rights commission, bring them up on criminal charges and send them to prison.

I’m sure these folks care about the blood of babies when they support the party of infanticide.

That’s the florist’s free choice to so do.

It’s also every conservative’s choice to Bud Lite this florist.

Pretty much the same with leaks of “secret” info.

I’ve never seen a more obvious set up.

RNC should file a discrimination lawsuit against the flower shop. Rats set precedent on this.

Can Republicans sue the florist? I mean, if gays can sue Christian bakeries, Republicans should!

Doncha know it’s all about “gun violence”?
Have to stop it, because those VIOLENT guns just keep jumping into the hands of sweet innocent people whose hands they take control of and force them shoot at everyone around them.

The blood of 600 million beautiful aborted babies is of no concern to ‘rats.

Big deal. I am sure there are lots of conservative florists in Nashville.
