Steve Scalise Was Still Bleeding, and Liberals Were Calling for Gun Control
It didn’t take long for liberal pundits to reignite the gun control debate after a gunman opened fire on Republican lawmakers and staff at baseball practice Wednesday morning, wounding Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise and four others.
Prominent liberal pundits and journalists used the Twitter hashtag “Gun Control” to bash Republican opposition on gun control and to push for more gun regulations not long after news of the shooting broke.
One freelance writer basically blamed Scalise for being shot. She tweeted, “The rep who was shot at the baseball game, Rep. Steve Scalise, introduced a bill to relax gun restrictions. https://t.co/GkR8bPt9HA.” The tweet has since been deleted. Other journalists immediately used the shooting to call for gun control.
Prayers for #SteveScalise and sensible #GunControl
