    The repetitive nature of the aftermath of mass-shootings is wild. Conservatives really are saying "now is not the time to politicize this"

        It's too soon to talk about #GunControl related to the #Texas shooting. So let's talk about it related to the shooting in Vegas.

        #GunControl related to #Columbine in 1999 is still kinda recent. Maybe it would be better to talk about it related to #Killeen in 1991?

        I guess talking about #GunControl related to #Killeen is still too soon isn't it. How about related to the genocide of Native Americans?

        Because the NRA is owned by gun companies and they need their stocks high and money flowing.

        If you wait to politicize it, then another one has happened so you have to wait again. I hold @SpeakerRyan personally responsible.

        Shaun, right now is the time for thoughts and prayers. We can politicize this the next time the killer is non-white or a Muslim.
