‘Your Prayers Don’t Work’; Hollywood Uses Shooting To Push Gun Control

By Corinne Weaver ~

Sympathy and charity are the natural reactions to a tragedy. Using the deaths of innocent people as an immediate platform for political gain is inhuman.

So, naturally, that’s the route Hollywood elitists chose to take just hours after the school shooting in Santa Fe that left 10 dead and several injured. Actors and actresses attacked everything they could get their hands on with blind, misdirected rage and virtuous grandstanding. It was like a wake of ghoulish vultures, screeching “YOUR PRAYERS DON’T WORK.”

As politicians and others offered their thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families, eager entertainers pounced on the sympathy and tore it to shreds. Producer Andy Lassner tweeted, “‘Thoughts and prayers’ is politician speak for ‘I need gun lobby money.’” Actress Mia Farrow stated, “Prayer does not replace action. WE NEED RATIONAL GUN LAWS.”

The attacks on faith continued. Actor Billy Eichner retweeted Vice President Pence’s statement about the shooting, and responded, “Forget your thoughts and prayers. You’ve been praying since Columbine. YOUR PRAYERS DON’T WORK. Can the rest of us rational thinking people actually try to do something about this now???”

Others turned on the politicians, hinting that they supported the shooter or were threatening towards the victims. Comedian Andy Richter tweeted a response to Trump’s support for the victims, saying “Who is he really with, though? The shooters or the ones who get shot?” Director Joss Whedon called Trump’s support for the victims “a threat.”

Attacks on gun rights were commonplace. Anti-gun hypocrite Julianne Moore tweeted, “Our leaders should be ashamed.” Ed Asner posted, “ALL of our leaders are failing us. We should all hang our heads in shame.” Author Joyce Carol Oates turned it into a campaign speech for Hillary Clinton, saying “Hillary Clinton was the candidate who spoke for sensible gun control. Clearly, unambiguously, & repeatedly. For this, T***p & GOP cohort pilloried her as someone who would “take away” their guns. Like NRA, media profits from mass shootings: gun sales, ratings. shall we say so?”

Some used the opportunity to bash the NRA, too. Actor Mark Hamill tweeted, “And it will keep happening & happening & happening & happening & happening & happening & happening & happening & happening & happening & happening until our gutless politicians stand up to the #NRA & pass the sensible guns laws the majority of Americans want.”

Alyssa Milano, who recently admitted to owning guns, spoke, “And guess what? The @NRA is going to use this tragedy to try and sell you more guns. If you’re a politician who is too damn much of a coward to say no to NRA money and to their demands, we will make it our mission to VOTE YOU OUT— Republican or Democrat. #NoRA”

Actor Josh Gad tweeted, “How many FUCKING times do we need to do this?!!! How many FUCKING kids need to die? HOW MANY?!! Millions?”

The real source of divisiveness in America are these supposed celebrity elitists, who turn a national tragedy into a sickening display of blame and anger. Pretending like one has emotions and sympathy to offer in Hollywood is apparently a challenge

The Truth About The Texas School Shooting | Dimitrios Pagourtzis Arrested

On May 18th, 2018 at approximately 7:45 am, 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis entered a classroom in Texas’s Santa Fe High School armed with his father’s legally owned shotgun and .38 revolver. Wearing a “Born to Kill” T-shirt, Pagourtzis yelled “Surprise!” before opening fire at his classmates, killing 10 people and wounding 10 other survivors. Texas Governor Greg Abbott: “We also know information already that the shooter has information contained in his journal and cellphone that he said that not only did he want to commit the shooting, but he wanted to commit suicide after the shooting. As you probably know, he gave himself up and admitted at the time that he didn’t have the courage to commit the suicide that he wanted to take his own life earlier.” Two additional suspects, including one who showed “suspicious reactions,” were detained and questioned by police after the shooting. Explosive devices described as “pressure cookers” and “pipe bombs” were also found at the school building and at another off-campus location.

Why do CO2 lag behind temperature?

71% of the earth is covered by ocean, water is a 1000 times denser than air and the mass of the oceans are 360 times that of the atmosphere, small temperature changes in the oceans doesn’t only modulate air temperature, but it also affect the CO2 level according to Henry’s Law.

The reason it is called “Law” is because it has been “proven”!

“.. scientific laws describe phenomena that the scientific community has found to be provably true ..”

That means, the graph proves CO2 do not control temperature, that again proves (Man Made) Global Warming, now called “Climate Change” due to lack of … Warming is – again – debunked!
