Were the Republicans crashing the press conference or were they invited?

It's absolutely heinous to grandstand on the graves of dead children.  I think most objective, rational people would agree with that.  But apparently not left-wingers, though.

Republicans don't give a shit about gun violence?  That's definitely a hot take.  And claiming that to justify Beto's stunt before the kids are even buried is pretty disgusting.

 No they were the only ones invited, homer. 


That’s what they were literally doing. Is grandstanding, homer. 


They literally vote against or refuse to bring any legislation to counteract gun violence so see the light of day, homer.  Meanwhile they’re literally rubbing elbows with the NRA as we speak, homer. 


So ease it with your faux outrage, homer.

Serious question, are you this upset about the lack of response by the cops, or how this was allowed to happen?

In the grand scheme of things, this is minor.

False.  They again brought forth the school safety bill (named after a Parkland victim) and CHUCK U SCHUMER would not let it see the light of day.

LMFAO.  I haven't seen you make a single non-leftwitless argument on the subject.  And what exactly makes me a homer - I'm a libertarian and didn't vote for a single official in Texas.  But that's beside the point - that was an official government function to provide information to the public, and Beto is not an elected official.  Get your facts straight before calling other people partisan idiots.

Second, not starting a thread about another shooting doesn't mean it isn't outrageous.  Beto's grandstanding was new.  But, again, another leftwitless argument that attempts to deflect when NO ONE disagrees schools should be safe or that this is a tragedy.

Let me say it more clearly for you:  Just because people don't see facts or data to suggest more gun control would be effective doesn't mean they don't care about kids.

And about those kids.  Again, take a timeout and a few deep breaths and attempt to think rationally rather than purely emotionally.  Many people die every day, including kids, in preventable tragedies.  People like Beto and the media get your fired up emotionally on this issue because of the political ramifications.  You don't appear bright enough to grasp that.  But if you care about kids lives as much as you pretend, you WOULD be ranting more about kids shot in drive-bys, or dying from the flu, drowning, etc...  In many cases, resources would save more lives than are lost in school shootings.  You appear to care much more about how kids die rather than kids actually dying, but somehow I'm a "homer" and insensitive.

It's like a plane crash - still very rare but the shock and horror of it causes hyperbolic emotional responses.  And that is rarely the basis for effective, good policy.  That's the point I've made repeatedly that sails over your head because you seem singularly focused on gun control to the exclusion of any other more rational and effective approach.

And before you make another irrational leftwitless response, I'm not saying schools shouldn't be safe and can't be safer.  No one is saying that. You haven't offered a single real counter argument to anything anyone has said.

Again, get your facts straight.  You're the only one expressing faux outrage, as has been pointed out repeatedly.

In Florida, a Republican legislature and governor DID sign legislation after Sandy Hook, among them raising the age to purchase rifles from 18 to 21.

Republicans are open to sensible reforms, and have passed bills and funding to hard schools.  The real issue is not the type of gun, but preventing guns from entering the schools.  But your liberal masters have worked you up into a tizzy that gun bans are the only solution, and that Republicans oppose control.  Neither is true, but overly emotional responses to misinformation is what makes you you.

It's far beyond Jimmy Carter on steroids; it's a radical leftist takeover of the federal government and it is on full display.
