There is no such thing as a Pro-Life Republican. [1]

Another three people are dead in Florida. The state that also brought us the Pulse Night Club shooting and countless other shootings of innocent people minding their own business.

Florida is an open carry state. The guy who did this had a history of mental illness, yet he was allowed to get, keep and openly carry a gun. And of course, no one could anything to stop him. He was well within his rights as a citizen of Florida up until the time he pulled the trigger and killed someone and by then it was too late.

Any time a Republican candidate calls themselves “Pro-Life” the response should be the names of all of the victims of gun violence that occurred in their state.

How about the life of so-and-so? How about the life of this person or that person? Do you try as hard to protect the living as you do the unborn?

You are only pro-life when it comes to a fetus, and you do not care about the lives of those already born including infants and children.

Do not let them stop with the statement “I am pro-life”. We must call them out as to why they do not care about lives that are taken by guns or for that matter, by the lack of health care. This must always be the response. I won’t get into the fact that these pro-life people almost always support the death penalty. They will just say that they protect innocent lives which of course implies that the victims of mass shootings are somehow not innocent.
