The moment to stop Uvalde was right after Sandy Hook. After Santa Fe High. After El Paso.

Instead, Abbott made it easier to carry guns in public.

The moment to stop the next slaughter is right now.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

We won’t forget.

At the moment, Republicans Greg Abbott, Ted Cruz, and Donald Trump are scheduled to speak at the NRA's annual meeting in Houston in three days. Houston is only a few hundred miles away from Uvalde.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Aren’t you slated to headline a speaking gig for the NRA in three days - in Houston, no less?

You can do more than pray. Faith without works is dead.

Eva Mireles. The 4th grade teacher who was murdered in Uvalde, Texas today.
From her aunt, Lydia Martinez Delgado: "I'm furious that these shooting continue, these children are innocent, rifles should not be easily available to all."

[Muted. Argue with yourself. @___inCANdescent]

17/18 year old boys keep going on shooting sprees. That’s a fucking epidemic that needs to be addressed.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

On the day of a mass shooting and weeks after news of Roe, Democratic Party leadership rallied for a pro-NRA, anti-choice incumbent under investigation in a close primary. Robocalls, fundraisers, all of it.

Accountability isn’t partisan. This was an utter failure of leadership.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

Abbott chose to let it happen again. And again and again.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

These massacres aren’t natural disasters, acts of God, or random.

They are totally predictable, direct consequences of the choices made by Greg Abbott and the majority of those in the legislature.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

Governor Abbott, if you have any decency, you will immediately withdraw from this weekend’s NRA convention and urge them to hold it anywhere but Texas.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

We need to repudiate in the strongest terms the politicians and media figures who — whether for political gain or to boost ratings — have used their platforms to promote and normalize “replacement theory” and other starkly racist, anti-Semitic, and nativist conspiracy theories.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

This weekend’s shootings in Buffalo offer a tragic reminder of the price we pay for refusing to curb the easy access to guns. It should also serve as a wakeup call for all Americans of goodwill, regardless of party.

[The Obama Foundation @ObamaFoundation]

In the wake of the mass shooting in Buffalo, NY, a horrific act of racism and violence, on-the-ground organizations and leaders are stepping up to help their community. Here are a few that could use your support:

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

We've now lost one million Americans to COVID-19. It's an unfathomable loss – these folks were our parents and grandparents, our sisters and brothers.

May God bless the memory of the victims, and in the words of Scripture, heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It’s long past time for action, any kind of action. And it’s another tragedy—a quieter but no less tragic one—for families to wait another day.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Across the country, parents are putting their children to bed, reading stories, singing lullabies—and in the back of their minds, they’re worried about what might happen tomorrow after they drop their kids off at school, or take them to a grocery store or any other public space.

Steve Kerr on today's tragic shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

[CSPAN @cspan]

Senator Chris Murphy (@ChrisMurphyCT): "The 14 kids dead in an elementary school in Texas right now. What are we doing? What are we doing? Just days after a shooter walked into a grocery store to gun down African American patrons we have another Sandy Hook on our hands."
