Beto Gets Brutally Mocked for Saying Church Shooting Shows Texas Gun Laws ‘Clearly’ Don’t Work; Leftists Celebrate on Social Media After Shooter Identified as White Man
By Pluralist. Failed Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke reacted to a weekend church shooting in White Settlement, Texas by criticizing the state’s gun laws.
O’Rourke, a proponent of stringent gun control measures who has called for national confiscation of firearms, said on Sunday in a tweet that the shooting shows “Clearly what we are doing in Texas, what we are doing in this country, when it comes to guns is not working.” . . .
Gov Abbott’s law saved lives, ya goob.

Commenters on social media, especially gun rights advocates and conservatives, pushed back against O’Rourke’s remarks, arguing that the White Settlement shooting was an example of firearms measures working as they should.
A number of new laws designed to ease restrictions on firearms for Texans went into effect in September.
One of the bills, Senate Bill 535, enabled licensed handgun owners to carry in churches and other places of worship.
Not just him, multiple outlets are trying to push the narrative that armed security stopped the guy. They don't want to tell the story about armed citizens stopping monsters, because that goes against their gun grabbing goals.

How did the New York gun laws protect the Jewish people praying that were stabbed by a man with a machete? I noticed you mention sending love and prayers to Monsey but I did not see you call for machete laws.

Leftists Celebrate on Social Media After Shooter Identified as White Man
By Pluralist. Some users on social media appeared to welcome the news that the gunman who perpetrated a weekend church shooting in Texas was identified as a white male.
The victims of Sunday’s shooting, identified as Anton Wallace, 64, of Fort Worth and Richard White, 67, of River Oaks, were also members of the security force at West Freeway Church of Christ, the state’s attorney general said.
Jack Wilson, the head of the security detail, fired a single shot that took down the gunman, identified as Keith Thomas Kinnunen, 43, of River Oaks. . .
Commenters on social media floated the idea of Kinnunen being motivated by white supremacy.
He skipped past all those white people in there and made sure to shoot the only Black person there…The msm isn't mentioning this

Not even considered a domestic terrorist either because he is a white male and he represents what a lot of them stand for and believe.
