Liberals reacted to he mass shooting in New Zealand on Friday by desperately and shamelessly searching for conservatives to blame.
The list is endless, but here are a few highlights…
PewDiePie:
Naturally the first thing anyone wants to do in the wake of a mass shooting tragedy is to blame somebody else (@PewDiePie) for it. God forbid we make the shooter take some personal responsibility, even when the shooter himself admits that it was 100% his own personal decision. pic.twitter.com/LdmTuhr5z4

Chans and incels:
This is as stupid as saying every person who attended the same mosque as the Manchester bomber should be on a terror list.
Do leftists not see their utter rank hypocrisy every time this happens?
The lack of self awareness is staggering. pic.twitter.com/XoAAKYALzw

Breitbart, Infowars and The Gateway Pundit:
You don't have to go to places like 4-chan to see vile/racist commentary. Just go to some of the far-right websites in the US, and look at the comments / message boards. Breitbart, Gateway Pundit, InfoWars — many reprehensible comments from users on stories re: terror attack.

The NRA:
(“Thoughts and prayers” is reference to the NRA’s phrase used to deflect conversation away from policy change during tragedies. Not directed to PM Ardern, who I greatly admire.)

Gun rights:
New Zealand P.M Jacinda Ardern: “I can tell you one thing right now. Our gun laws will change.”
As the nation’s law stands now, anyone over age 16 with an entry-level gun license can keep any number of rifles and shotguns “without an official record.”pic.twitter.com/rnhbIEfzZD
