It’s unimaginable. And yet it's real. I don't know where to begin. Watching, crying, and sending love.

Its absolutely tragic to hear "worst mass shooting in US history" for the SECOND time in two years. The patterns keep repeating. Its tragic

Our country is broken.

The saddest part is that this has happened before and that it will happen again. We NEED stricter gun reform.

Just waking up to the horrific news about #LasVegas.
I’m sick.
And heartbroken.

Sending love and prayers to all of those affected by this mass shooting in Vegas. We gotta do better. No need for these weapons. Senseless

If we want an end to gun violence in our beautiful country, the NRA's madness must be stopped. Common sense gun reform NOW. #PrayForLasVegas

Common sense gun control is not political. It's about putting lives & families above all else. It doesn't get any more personal than that. https://t.co/6rqn3RX8Z6

FAEN says:
I’m disgusted that I’m not shocked or surprised, just numb. The NRA own too many members of Congress who refuse to pass ANY kind of gun safety bill.
They refuse to close the gun show loophole.
They’re trying or have passed a bill that lets the mentally ill purchase firearms.
They’re trying to pass a bill to legalize silencers!
Why are we the least bit surprised that these massacres occur?
You have blood on your hands GOP. But you don’t give a shit as long as you get paid.
K. Martinez says:
More than sad, I’m angry. Nothing of substantial worth will be done about it by our leaders. It will continue to go on and repeat itself. This country is suffering from a case of mass social mental illness.
Prayers and condolences aren’t going to fix it either.
Robin Dutcher says:
Trump wants everyone to have guns. The NRA needs to be disbanded, guns need to stop being sold. Only law enforecement and military should have guns. But as long as Trump is there, this violence won’t stop.
