Marjorie Taylor Greene responds to horror Nashville mass shooting that left seven dead by calling for MORE guns in schools saying children should be protected ‘like precious stones’
Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has taken to Twitter to call for more guns in schools following the horrifying attack on the Covenant School in Nashville on Monday.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The US representative for Georgia yesterday called the shooting ‘another absolutely horrific, needless tragedy’ as she rallied for better protection of children ‘like precious stones’ in schools.
She wrote: ‘Children and school staff should always be protected the same way politicians, money, precious stones, and gold are protected, but even more so, by good guys with guns.’
She added: ‘Joe Biden’s gun free school zones have endangered children at schools leaving them as innocent targets of sick horrible, disturbed people ever since he worked as a Senator to pass this foolish law.’
The comments follow the killing of three nine-year-olds and three members of staff after former student Audrey Hale, 28, opened fire at the Tennessee private school on Monday.
Hale was shot by responding police officers, leaving a total of seven dead from the horror shooting.
In the tweet, Taylor Greene called for Biden ‘and Democrats’ to ‘give up their Secret Service protection and put themselves on the same level as our unprotected innocent precious children at school.
‘School shootings should NEVER happen and will end immediately when our nations [sic] children are defended the same way Joe Biden is by good guys with guns.’
There have been 13 school shootings in 2023, with six children killed in total and four adults or employees losing their lives.
“MTG” has been a staunch defender of second amendment rights in the wake of recent mass shootings.
After the Colorado Springs shooting at Club Q last November, she snapped at Biden over calls for an assault weapons ban.
She wrote on Twitter: ‘Banning “assault weapons” will not stop a transgender [sic] from shooting up his own LGBTQ community or any other murderer already breaking laws to kill people.
‘More gun control laws just create more defenseless victims.’
The congresswoman posted a photo of herself with an AR-15-style assault rifle, crouched over a dead hog with a helicopter in the background.
As in the case of the Nashville shooting, the suspect is alleged to have used an assault-style weapon and a handgun to carry out the attack, authorities said.
