America has been thrown into a state of mourning. A lone shooter took the life of many people and injuring hundreds more.
The scene was shocking as many people feared for their lives. People were trampled as they tried to escape.
The news spread quickly as people woke up to the dreadful situation. The President held a news briefing where he expressed his sympathy to those affected.
Hillary Clinton also gave a statement. She received heavy criticism for what she said.
Clinton tweeted “the crowd fled at the sound of gunshots. Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get.”
Her tweet was condemned as ignorant and irrelevant.

Her statement was directed to the NRA. She also tweeted “our grief isn’t enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again.”
The statement was more aimed at making it easier to access silencers. The NRA is trying to get Federal law to be easier on having silencers.
Her tweet was greeted with a rebuttal. Dana Loesch tweeted “Suppressors only reduce by a few decibels, still same decibel level as a jackhammer.”
Dana Loesch is a talk radio host and NRA spokeswoman.
Ben Shapiro tweeted that Clinton’s tweet on the matter is “ignorant, irrelevant and exploitative.” Ben Shapiro is editor in chief of The Daily Wire and a conservative.
Buck Sexton said her tweet was “appallingly stupid, and entirely irrelevant. Mrs. Clinton She knows nothing about firearms, and even worse, she doesn’t care.”
