Vance called it "shocking" for "so many left-wing politicians" to attack the idea and added that "no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action."
"We pray because our hearts are broken and we believe that God is listening," he wrote in a post on X.
The vice president also responded to former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, who said, "prayer is not freaking enough."
"Of all the weird left wing culture wars in the last few years, this is by far the most bizarre. 'How dare you pray for innocent people in the midst of tragedy?!' What are you even talking about?" Vance wrote.

It makes perfect sense if you know that leftists reject God and consider prayer a meaningless gesture.
As noted on another thread, Job was a man of great faith and God allowed the devil to cause him severe suffering.
Jesus Christ, the Creator of the Universe, was praying when he died.

Sometimes you have to get academic with people like Jen Psaki who don’t think carefully.
Yes, good for JDV.
“F-— your thoughts and prayers” has indeed become a common refrain from the left during these sorts of tragedies.
It’s particularly galling... because this shooter is the left’s guy in a huge way... tranny, worked a cannabis shop, hates Trump. He’s like the poster boy of the modern Democrat Party.
Prayer is indeed not enough.
We need to end the destructive marxist trans political cult, and return to social opprobrium and scorn for gender confusion and public sexual perversion.
Acceptance and encouragement of mental-illness and confusion, in the name of fake compassion, only encourages more mental illness and leads to violent behavior
It makes perfect sense if you know that leftists reject God and consider prayer a meaningless gesture.

It’s more then that.
If they thought it was completely meaningless, it wouldn’t bother then.
Leftists are ALL ABOUT POWER!
Anyone who has contempt for prayer is tipping their hand toward the luciferian influences on their ideologies, and they do it because they probably aren’t conscious of it at all.
They consciously rationalize that they are secular and sciencey, but prayer acknowledges a higher power, higher than humanity, and they hate that, because they want the power for themselves.
I bet if you are in the leftist hub it’s the talk for a decade or more now.
The anti-Christian Hate used by these liberals is part of the reason these shootings happen.
‘shocking’ and ‘bizarre’
More like “demonic”.
Just sayin’

The satanic death cult does not believe in God, they are pure evil.
I would have described the hatred towards prayer as
demonic .
Jen Psaki reflected the shooters same feelings, hatred for Christians.
Who ‘radicalized’ the shooter? The left wing websites.
Same with "so called" atheists wo get absolutely apoplectic when you mention God.
Actually the left started mocking thoughts and prayers before anyone actually said it. Not sure anyone did. The left just anticipated that would be the Republican response and they wanted to say it was not good enough. Klobuchar and Schumer immediately called for making guns illegal. The narrative was ready to go. The proper response is that the violent society that Obama built is too dangerous for anyone to disarm.
“...Pray without ceasing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:17
White lineal ‘elites’ hated of ‘thoughts and prayers’ tells you how close they are the the killer’s ‘hate’. Ugly stuff. Maybe they don’t know what they sound like...
Think sickos’.... evil.
They want action? Put security around all Christian and Jewish Schools. The evil ones want to kill children from the ‘religious community’..
