Colorado Springs Gay Bar ShootingAt least five people were killed and 25 others injured after a shooter opened fire in a gay club in Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Saturday night.
The tragedy took place the night before Transgender Day of Remembrance a day honoring the many trans people killed in violent acts of hatred which the club had planned to commemorate at its drag brunch event.
On Sunday, Colorado Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert known for her anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, pro-gun activism, comments against Muslims, and support for far-right conspiracy theories commented on the deadly shooting in her neighboring district.
"The news out of Colorado Springs is absolutely awful," Boebert tweeted. "This morning the victims & their families are in my prayers. This lawless violence needs to end and end quickly."
