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."

So gun control trumps abortion? That’s interesting.

“Our community has just lost seven people”

I thought the tranny only killed six Christians. Was there a seventh?

The committee should have sent in 2 gay men to place the order.

Lighten up, Francis. You win the Drama Queen of the Year trophy for your outstanding use of taking these murders by a tranny and turning them into a damn commercial for your sh*tty flower shop. BTH.

Let them go broke.

How is this any different then a baker refusing to make a gay pride cake because it contrasts with his beliefs?

It’s odd how they always want to punish the people who didn’t do it and reward the person who did.

The other obvious question to ask here is how would have more gun control stopped this and other recent tragedies? How about more effective intervention methods in dealing with the mentally ill instead? This emotion driven gesture politics involving firearms is getting very repulsive.

I don’t want to share a world with them.

Rush said to keep one around as a reminder as to how nuts they are. Nope. Just keep some video. Safer that way.

Democrat cities like Chicago have the strictest gun laws in the country AND the most murders and violence. Democrats are blessed with people too stupid to do simple math... it’s not the guns - it’s the fruitcakes behind the guns.

Tennessee is a ruby-red state, but Nashville and Memphis are infested with Democrats.
