Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez(D-N.Y.) on Friday tore into the National Rifle Association after at least one gunman opened fire at two New Zealand mosques, leaving at least 49 people dead.
The New York lawmaker condemned the fatal attack on Twitter, focusing her message on the American gun group.
At 1st I thought of saying, Imagine being told your house of faith isnt safe anymore. But I couldnt say imagine, the lawmaker wrote, citing the deadly shootings at a Charleston, S.C. church, a Pittsburgh, Penn., synagogue and a Sutherland Springs, Texas church.
What good are your thoughts & prayers when they dont even keep the pews safe? She added.
Ocasio-Cortez noted that thoughts and prayers is a reference to the NRA phrase she says is used to deflect conversation away from policy change during tragedies.
Killers among us are the problem NOT the tool they choose. The highest body counts involve other than guns.
It won’t take much now for the crazies to recruit a deranged suicide bomber to attack a packed Church on Easter. It would be a very good idea to protect these churches with sophisticated armed and sensory security. Ah the joys of multiculturalism and diversity. Not to mention the self inflicted cultural wounds of widespread drug use, and the embrace of decadence and hedonism.
I'd say closer to 40 million sheep and 23 million illegal aliens.
Did not New Zealand allow their Govt to disarm the people of that country like Australia. I am guessing this is so.
Look at venezuela they are shooting citizens.
Uh... New Zealand is, contrary to initial reports, very much a gun-control nation. Guns are not permitted for self-defense. They are permitted ONLY for hunting and pest control.
bomber to attack a packed Church on Easter.
I think Vegas was the swamp.
DITTO—this chicks a figure head picked to be a parrot for the lib deep state!
GO pound, or better yet, go learn about economics!
Good time for New Zealand to have death penalty.
I watched a Film on Netflix, which shows how a man with firearms shot, killed and wounded NZ unarmed police and civilians. The police were terrorized by the shooter and only could cower in the face of the assault.

Even in the wake of a horrible incident such as this, her mouth is likely still that gift that keeps on giving.
No not the NRA she hit on The Almighty who is the receiver of prayers.
Thanks LRoggy I posted before reading your post.
Freegards!
Stupid has a new script.
5 of them all under age 10. We are done. It isn't Animal Farm but it's close...buried in a sea of brood mares thanks to elites who will build a moat and leave the rest of us to it.
This little socialist agrees with infanticide..it’s ok with her to murder a baby, and it’s ok to cease the death penalty, and its ok to protect illegals so they can roam anywhere, but she wants our guns? What is important to her hairbrain is upside down and her right and wrong is badly skewed.
All the attention has given her the idea she is brilliant and continues to preach to all.
This irritates me to no end. She's labeled as a law maker. A stupid bartender is now referred to as a lawmaker. One shouldn't get that title till one has earned it.
Pews? I thot Muslims kneeled on the floor
Don’t need no steeking pews in a mosque AOC.
If she shares that view about Islam, she will find herself in hot water.
