Notice which Christians say we need gun reform. Notice which ones simply say they grieve what happened in #Uvalde, #Buffalo, #LagunaWoods, etc. The ones who simply say they lament are the ones who walk by the person on the side of the road that the Samaritan man helped.
The Christian leaders who have congregations/constituencies where political idolatry and an idolatry of the second amendment have been allowed to flourish will say nothing about the need for #GunControlNow. #Uvalde should never have happened.
You cannot obey the second commandment to love your neighbor as the Bible defines neighbor and idolatrously defend the second amendment and resist gun reform.
The two are at odds with each other.

To say you grieve the death of someone drinking poisoned water from the sink, and doing nothing to address the poison that is being pumped out through the faucets is negligent and egregious.
I normally step away from social media when I’m mad, but with all that is going on, my hope is that enough people will get mad alongside me to call for comprehensive gun reform.
STOP POURING GUNS INTO THE STREETS.

We live in a country that loves its guns more than it loves it’s citizens.
Sadly, too many Christians seem to love their guns more than they love their neighbors.
