On Tuesday, a gunman attacked Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas after posting on social media he had killed his grandmother and was coming to attack a school. The murderer ended up killing 19 children and two faculty members.
Despite the horrific nature of the schooting and the families of the victims having no time to process, much less grieve, Democrats nationwide descended upon a new anti-gun push, immediately blaming the firearm used to kill the victims and demanding it happen now.
Joe Biden said in a press conference Tuesday, “We as a nation have to ask when in God’s name are we going to stand up to the gun lobby.”
At a Wednesday press conference with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, failed presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke who is running for Texas governor, yelled at the Governor and demanded gun bans.
On Tuesday, far-left Gov Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico wrote on her government Twitter account, “As elected officials, we must do everything in our power to reduce the number of firearms and deadly weapons on our streets to make sure that everyone in this country can live in peace and free of fear.”
On Wednesday on her campaign Twitter account, Lujan Grisham added, “It’s our responsibility as elected officials to do everything we can to reduce the number of deadly weapons on our streets. In New Mexico, we took action to keep guns out of the wrong hands and I will continue to champion common sense proposals to reduce gun violence.”
First-term U.S. Rep. Teresa Leger Fernandez (D-NM-03) wrote on Twitter Wednesday, “We must turn our pain into action. The House has passed life saving gun safety legislation to expand background checks and close the Charleston loophole- it’s time for the Senate to do the same.”
Fellow Democrat Rep. Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico’s First Congressional District got even more political, demanding an end to the U.S. Senate filibuster to pass radical gun-grabbing legislation. She wrote, “We must stop #GunViolence now. Full stop. Congress must act and #AbolishtheFilibuster.”
U.S. Sen. Ben Ray Luján wrote on Twitter, “After each mass shooting, the GOP distracts from the real issue & points to mental health. We’re no worse in mental health rates than any other nation. 90% of the country want background checks & 85% want red-flag laws. Right now we need to abolish the filibuster & pass H.R. 8.”
Sen. Martin Heinrich piled on, “We’ve known for far too long the devastating toll that gun violence has taken on American communities.”
State-level leaders added on even more extreme measures, including state Rep. Liz Thomson who shared a tweet bashing law-abiding gun owners and demanding bans on “assault weapons,” which do not exist.
State Rep. Javier Martinez, the Democrats’ New Mexico House majority leader, wrote that Republicans “will hide behind the ‘don’t play politics’ charade while the next bloody tragedy is probably already underway. I’m glad @BetoORourke called the BS out. I will not sacrifice my children or anyone else’s for someone’s inexplicable protection of guns over people.”
Before many of the families affected by the tragic Texas massacre even heard the news of their loved ones being brutally slaughtered, Democrats weaponized the death of these innocent children and school administrators for political gain — all to ban guns, which has been one of their top legislative priorities.
All those so called leaders are members of the democrat communist party. Instead they go on blaming inanimate objects , yet they refuse to blame the real cause of violence in America like the fact that morals and scruples have been eliminated in schools and society. Righteousness has been sacrificed on the alter of political correctness, a term coined by the soviets. Like in all communist takeovers, they must first disarm us before they enslave us.
The grandmother survived, and was taken to the hospital.
Were there any armed personnel at the school in Uvalde? What ultimately stopped that sick kid with a gun?
There was an armed resource officer in the school
It was the NRA who stopped him- if there were more guns shoots wouldn’t happen .
A Border Patrol officer killed the shooter.
It was a law enforcement officer who killed the shooter.
It might do you some good to look at that time frame of what happened the shooter was in the rooms an hour before somebody came in and shot him
I was relaying what authorities were reporting at the time. Responsible news reporting will reveal the truth.
Lamentably, the school and local law enforcement in Uvalde lied to cover their backsides. It appears that truly professional and honest policing is necessary.
What about NM. Nothing has been done.
What do you favor?
What realistic changes do you propose?
Anyone remember Sandy Hook? All show………..all fraud……….
Are you saying Sandy Hook was faked?
If MLG can lie and steal TAXPAYER MONEY, we have the right to keep our guns and defend ourselves. She is the problem. She wants power and is a Nazi. She loves to kill unborn babies. So, what’s the difference MLG? MLG passes laws to kill babies! People are not running around everyday in NM shooting. Yet babies are murdered everyday, and MLG loves it.
Democraps are full of sh@t. They love abortion and killing babies everyday. They don’t care about these kids. They want more power and they will say anything to get it.. They just want to take guns away and they are looking for any reason to do it. Kill them when they are babies or murder them later. What’s the difference evil b@tch MLG? Murder is the democrap way.
