In the wake of yet another senseless
mass shooting, the various Republican presidential candidates took to Twitter
to put their two cents in. See if you can spot the theme:
Praying for the victims, their
families & the San Bernardino first responders in the wake of this tragic
shooting.
Thoughts & prayers are with #SanBernardino
Our thoughts

Thoughts and Prayers. You know
what, guys? Your thoughts and prayers do nothing. Your thoughts and prayers are
worth nothing. Three of you are sitting United States Senators. Two of you are
sitting governors. All of you have been given a platform to address the
electorate. DO SOMETHING! Don't think. Don't pray. Do something. You all
are in positions of influence, do something about this epidemic of gun violence
that has infected this nation. Legislate. Support sensible gun laws. People are
being mowed down every day in this country while you sit there piously,
unctuously, cravenly sending your worthless "thoughts and prayers"
out to people whose lives have been shattered. Fuck you all. Your
thoughts and prayers are worse than worthless, they're a slap in the face and a
big middle finger to everyone who's been affected by gun violence. It's looking
out at the aftermath of tragedy and saying, with a shit-eating grin, "we
could do something to prevent this, but we choose not to."
Fuck all y'all.
