A Twitter User Had Something To Say About Gun Control After The Florida Shooting And His Tweet Is Going Viral

Everyone has their opinions on gun control.

Wait, let me rephrase that, everyone has differing opinions about literally everything. It seems that we as human beings can’t agree on anything.

Some people think that they have a right to own a firearm for protection purposes and they often cite Second Amendment which says: ‘the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.’

While others seem to think that there should be strict gun control laws as they are quite alarmed by even more deadly violence that can take place in the future.

You may also know about the anti-abortion stance that Trump has.

I know this might not sound relevant but trust me, it is. You might remember that In January 2018, President Donald Trump addressed anti-abortion protesters at Washington’s National Mall where he stated:

As you all know, Roe v. Wade has resulted in some of the most permissive abortion laws anywhere in the world.

And then he talked about his administration who have already taken many anti-abortion measures.

Because of you, tens of thousands of Americans have been born and reached their full, God-given potential.

Well, one Twitter user talked about that relating to gun control.

Let’s rename ‘school’ as ‘uterus’ so maybe Republican lawmakers will want to do something about the children dying inside them.

His Tweet has gone massively viral as many people agreed with him.

As one person stated:

Brilliant idea!! Maybe then they’ll get it! It boggles the mind as to their logic that an in utero embryo has more ‘right to life’ than a school child.

Maybe we should add to their pro life signs: ‘at any age.’

Probably not but we can try, right?

That's weird you said that. I was just wondering if we called shooting victims fetuses, would the pro gun people want to do something then?

That illustration holds true.

That is indeed logic at its best.

They care sooooooo much about aborting children, while neglecting the protection and safety of the ones we have here?!!!!?🤔

Because people with mental illnesses are the only people that can harm with a gun.

Here is a big problem. We had a start to fixing some of the gun problems. But then @ChuckGrassley and @realDonaldTrump shredded a small #MentalIllness restriction to gun access. pic.twitter.com/lszOfp7NfC

I’d be quite proud too.

That’s an ad for a law school in my home if SF btw. And I couldn’t be more proud. pic.twitter.com/imR5BcIX0t
