Seriously, @neiltyson? More proof that "logic and reason" aren't going to save the world, and that being a dick doesn't endear people to science. #DomesticTerrorism #scicommhttps://twitter.com/neiltyson/status/1158074774297468928 …

I expect much better from a science communicator of that caliber. This tweet horrendously minimises a very preventable massacre.

IKR? NDT's Tweet might have been sorta technically correct, but it was so tone deaf that it could've come from Richard Dawkins.

Completely agree on the data but unbelievably tone-deaf. He IS smart enough to issue an apology for the insensitivity, and hope he does

It's callous perhaps in a "too soon" manner. But he has a very good point about human perspective on what real risks and problems are. We focus on the vivid - plane crashes vs. thousands of highway deaths, Ebola vs. influenza deaths, to the detriment of improving our well being

I get it, but the tweet was unnecessary. There’s a time and place...this was neither.

What was he trying to say? It just sounded like supporting the nra to me. I know a lot of people die of other causes and some are despicably ignored but that doesn't make this not a good time to improve a current one.

Possibly don't support and perpetuate the culture of fear? Usually fear is a top reason people give for ownership of weapons. That's what I'm getting from it.

Makes me wonder if NDT is packing heat.
