House Democrat REFUSES to Stand for a Moment of Silence for Vegas Victims
truth feed ^ | 10-2-17

Posted on 10/02/2017 1:15:36 PM PDT by doug from upland

Democrat congressman, Seth Moulton, defiantly announced that he WILL NOT participate in the House of Representatives moment of silence for the victims in Las Vegas.

Moulton explains his disgusting actions by saying that now is a time for action, not silence.

In truth, it’s completely disrespectful towards the victims and he should be ashamed of himself.

The Massachusetts Democrat appeared to be protesting inaction to pass gun control legislation.

Moulton also did not participate in a moment of silence in honor of the victims of the 2016 Orlando night club shooting, which killed 49 people.

In the aftermath of the Orlando attack, the Washington Post reported that Moulton had made the decision after he tweeted out that his “thoughts and prayers” were with the victims, only to be attacked by his constituents.

Because they secretly agree......................

Being from Massachusetts, I assume Moulton did not observe a moment of silence after the Boston Marathon bombing, since now is the time for action against pressure cookers.

“Moulton was one of several Democratic lawmakers who refused to take part in a moment of silence in the House for the victims of the deadly mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Fla., in June 2016.”

He at least he is a consistent asshole.

Since Trump’s announcement ‘to run’, we’ve had more people go on the record with their insanity than at any time since I’ve been alive.

Who would imagine there could be a member of the House of Representatives that would refuse to participate in a moment of reverence for the 58 people killed, and the 500 plus people wounded last night? The moment is as much for the family, friends, associates, and the mourning nation, as the the victims wounded or killed, and yet this person has a personal agenda that is more important.

Most of these people think with the logic God doesn’t bestow on children until they’re a little older. Some of them think with less logic than what God does give young children early on.

These are stupefying acts of colossal ignorance.

What law needs to be passed to regulate machine guns other than it’s already illegal to have one?
This is just a liberal moron on an opportunistic rant.

So this dem agreed with the shooter killing Americans....because they are mostly white???, Conservative????, Christian???? Isn't that profiling Americans you want killed?

Sorry, but the dems are no longer an American party. Really think that through. They support killing Americans so they can be in power.

“Dang - Bronze Star as a Marine Corps Captain”

Several alleged freepers arrogantly told us that Alejandro Villenueva is still a hero because HE has a Bronze Star, and “When did YOU serve?” if we disagree.

I suppose they should feel the same way about Seth Moulton.

it’s already illegal to have one?

Only if you live in a slave state. Those of us in the free states that aren't felons can purchase machine guns anytime we want. They have to be pre-1986, transferable (previously registered), and they're expensive as a Porsche, but we can own them.

Please stop posting stuff you don't know anything about.

We need stiff regulations of full auto weapons.
What? we have them already?
You mean the perp was violating a gun law?

Ok, more laws then!

Mrs. Moulten’s little Seth needs to get a real job. In North Korea. That place is more his style.
