This is the Left=> Dem Lawmaker Refuses to Participate in Moment of Silence For Vegas Victims
Gateway Pundit ^ | 10/2/17 | Cristina Laila

Democratic lawmaker Rep. Seth Moulton from Massachusetts said he would not be participating in the moment of silence on the House floor for the innocent Americans killed in the mass shooting in Las Vegas Monday.

As previously reported, a crazed shooter slaughtered over 50 people Sunday night at a Las Vegas country western concert in a mass shooting.
Another 400 people were injured.

The Las Vegas shooter was identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock from Mesquite, Nevada.

Instead of saying a prayer for the victims with the leaders of our country, the Dem lawmaker argued that Congress should instead be taking action on more gun control.

This is the left.

Moulton tweeted, “As after #Orlando, I will NOT be joining my colleagues in a moment of silence on the House Floor that just becomes an excuse for inaction.”

Now is not a moment for silence; it’s a time for action.”

Moulton isn’t the only Democrat screaming about the NRA and more gun control.

Democrat Hillary Clinton wasted no time politicizing the terrorist attack and immediately went after the NRA in response to the mass shooting.

FOX News analyst Chris Stirewalt called Hillary Clinton a “blight on her party” who “won’t go away… Nothing will stop her.”

Hillary tweeted, “The crowd fled at the sound of gunshots. Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get.”

“Our grief isn’t enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again.”

Dem Senator from MA Ed Markey also called for more gun control and blamed the GOP following the mass shooting in Las Vegas.

I’ll remember the name Seth Moulton for future elections as someone not to vote for. In this way this post has value.

They don’t give one sh*t about victims. The politics always comes first. They are vile and repugnant.

I see this backfiring on them as well.

“The Left us utcgubg ti remove the entire Constitution.”

Absolutely right.

I wouldn’t put it past the scuu&bags to have created this whole incident in order to foment another assault by the press and Progressive scu&bag politicians against the whole ball of wax.

They might be getting desperate.

(Just like cornered rats.)

IMHO

So this pile can’t wait just a few moments and give respect to the victims.

Gun control worked so well at the mass shootings in France, we should try it here - Yeah, right.

I don’t lean towards conspiracy theories, but this horrific act stands out as Very Odd.

“...this horrific act stands out as Very Odd.”

Why did he choose a venue where there would be mostly
“flyover country” citizens and not a place where a more amorphous group would be?

Why did he choose to shoot when the gathering was known to be its largest? (Do psychotic episodes take place only when a group of “hicks” is at its largest?)

Does a psychotic episode set up cameras to see when the police are coming?

Just asking.

IMHO

Just a couple of questions.

“These people keep getting re-elected...”

How true.

(Revolutionaries vote for revolutionaries to be be their revolutionaries.)
