So important that the memes get on top of this story and double down on this specific hypocrisy. Optically, this tragedy is perfect for the RNC to the point it could almost be staged except for the glaring weak spot that Republicans believe that the person who did this had every right to own a firearm. The memes need to absolutely rail at that chink in the armor and pretty much nothing else, otherwise this is nothing more than gained footing for MAGA.

Hypocrisy is a tool of the GQP.

lol, should we make them care about women and minorities as well while we're at it?

they're demons. you can't "make them" care about anything but holding power and abusing it.
