| Dem Lawmaker Refuses to Participate in Moment of Silence For Vegas Victims |
| 2017-10-03 |
| [THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Democratic lawmaker Rep. Seth Moulton from Massachusetts said he would not be participating in the moment of silence on the House floor for the innocent Americans killed in the mass shooting in Las Vegas Monday. As previously reported, a crazed shooter slaughtered over 50 people Sunday night at a Las Vegas country western concert in a mass shooting. Another 400 people were injured. The Las Vegas shooter was identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock from Mesquite, Nevada. Instead of saying a prayer for the victims with the leaders of our country, the Dem lawmaker argued that Congress should instead be taking action on more gun control. Moulton tweeted, “As after #Orlando, I will NOT be joining my colleagues in a moment of silence on the House Floor that just becomes an excuse for inaction.” “Now is not a moment for silence; it’s a time for action.” Moulton isn’t the only Democrat screaming about the NRA and more gun control. Democrat Hillary Clinton wasted no time politicizing the terrorist attack and immediately went after the NRA in response to the mass shooting. Hillary tweeted, “The crowd fled at the sound of gunshots. Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get.” “Our grief isn’t enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again.” FOX News analyst Chris Stirewalt called Hillary Clinton a “blight on her party” who “won’t go away… Nothing will stop her.” |

| #6 The guy is a true Mass-hole. I found some errors on his wiki page, and wrote him so that he could correct them. I got a sarcastic response, topped off by the observation that I wasn't in his district and he didn't care. |

| #5 Even by Mass. standards, this guy's unhinged. He only won the 6th district seat because a Libertarian siphoned off enough votes for him to win. |

| #4 Idiot. One minute of silence vs. weeks of PR recovery efforts to re-build your public image. When the enemy is shooting themselves in the foot, it's best to let them continue. |
