'We tried to protect our city. It’s so tragic to see the legislation struck down, and days later, to have our city experience exactly what we were trying to prevent.'
But the timing of the mass shooting just 10 days after the judge's decision served as painfully ironic timing for local gun reform advocates like Dawn Reinfeld, who told the Washington Post:

F@ck your thoughts and prayers! We need leaders in this country willing to stand for gun reform. I own guns and support the 2nd but we cannot continue to repeat these tragedies and look away all because the NRA greases pockets of legislators. #GunReformNow#AsianLivesMatter#BLM
