“I’ve gone to funerals and sat down and cried with the parents.
I have visited individual in the hospitals. They’re grieving. They want answers,”
Rick said during an interview on Fox News.

Gov Scott? Did you mention to those grieving–
about your acceptance of NRA contributions–
and your support for the right to easily purchase
modifiable semi-automatic weapons like the AR-15?

Yeah. I thought not.

I really cannot believe these people are this stupid. Why in the world would you hand your political opponents such a powerful argument? Because all the president needs to do, if he even responds, is to point out that people are being murdered, possibly pleading for their lives and screaming in their final moments of life and not subjecting the families to the agony of having to hear their loved one die. This is about having compassion for the families and giving the dead some dignity. Of course, thats just the emotional argument. Never mind the fact that this is an ongoing investigation and some information needs to be withheld from the public just as is always, always, always the case in any homicide investigation.

The President’s been to Orlando as well, Rick. Something tells me he doesn’t need a lecture from you about how to mourn.

Now if you want to really do something, how about banning assault weapons in your state??

Just tell him the missing words that were edited out of the transcripts were “climate change” and he should be fine.

Were you concerned about the lower class people with no health insurance due to your resistance of Obamacare? You are a shameful jerk. Just the fact that you and Christie are so anxious to accept the VP position from Trump, while everybody with any class is turning down the offer!

I think there are many families in Florida who wish Medicaid Expansion had happened. Did you meet with any of them? Did they have questions for you?

I read a story yesterday in which two survivors, a bartender and a customer, describe the carnage. They’re haunted by it and afraid they’ll relive it every day of their lives. The horror of that night is not just another transcript to be used as political capital but absent gun control it’s all we can expect.

@pshah He forgot to mention he offers thoughts and prayers on a daily basis.

Yes, the families want to know how the murderer managed to get a weapon that is used for the sole purpose of killing people? What’s that you said - something about states rights??

Huh…

Here we go with the usual GOP BS…diverting attention, ginning up false conflicts, shifting blame.

“Why don’t you use the term ‘radical Islam’?”

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode about not wearing the pink ribbon.

I hope Perry watches the Florida GOP descend into a meat grinder.
