GOP sees El Paso shooting as a tragedy; Dems an opportunity


The mainstream media kept away from the Dayton shooting because the maniac killer was an Elizabeth Warren supporter as well as socialism. But the El Paso Walmart shooting was perfect for them--a scumbag white nationalist killed 22 and wounded 40 people. Not unsurprisingly, they left out the part of the guy's manifesto that he was also a leftist environmental fascist.

The smoke cleared and most of the dead were removed from the scene when former Democratic congresswoman Gabby Giffords sent a fundraising email on behalf of the Democratic National Committee on Monday afternoon, asking supporters to respond to the pair of deadly weekend shootings by making political contributions. Get 'em while their emotions are high is the DNC motto.

The emailed fundraising plea, sent from a DNC email with Giffords's name, asks recipients to show "courage" by splitting a contribution between the DNC and Giffords PAC, a gun control group that spent nearly $18 million on elections last cycle.

"I am asking you to have the courage to act today," the email reads. "Split a $10 donation between my organization dedicated to ending gun violence, Giffords PAC, and the Democratic National Committee today."

"Together, we have the power to prevent gun violence and save lives," it says--which is nonsense.

The email's donation link directs to the ActBlue fundraising page paid for by the DNC. Contributions are automatically split evenly between the DNC and Giffords PAC.

"Chip in to stand with Democrats fighting to end gun violence," the fundraising page says. But they never tell you how they're going to end gun violence. With over 300 million guns in the U.S., gun control laws isn't the answer to the violence. It's a whole different mindset, mental health intervention and probably considering "red flag" laws where people close to potential shooters can get the law to intervene.

Blaming the NRA is ridiculous. Neither of the shooters was a member of the gun safety organization. The NRA is strong because gun ownership in our country is strong, not the other way around.

The DNC isn't the first group to solicit contributions in the wake of shootings Saturday in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, which together killed at least 31 as of Monday afternoon.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) sent a fundraising email on Sunday asking her supporters to contribute to Giffords PAC, as well as the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund, two political advocacy groups.

Her campaign has defended the fundraising email, saying the three groups it is raising money for are "gun violence prevention organizations."

Okay, what is your plan?

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) sent a fundraising email Monday urging donations to Democratic Senate campaigns. She didn't mention the Dayton shooter's support for her presidency. Nobody on the left did.
