    When they say our prayers are with you, they don’t even mean that. Mass shootings get a few fleeting thoughts and that’s it nowadays.https://twitter.com/nbcnightlynews/status/927260299509534721 …

        And if anyone says anything about gun control it'll be "don't politicize this".

        they offer prayers but no action. Talk is cheap. Gun control is effective.
