Kellyanne Conway Says Debating Gun Control Now ‘Disrespects The Dead’
Ted Cruz echoes her message: “We don’t need politics right now. ... Evil is evil.”
By Mary Papenfuss 11/06/2017 07:51 pm ET

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway blasted renewed criticism about politicians’ failure to enact stricter gun controls in the wake of the Texas church shooting, saying it’s “disrespectful to the dead.”

Conway was responding to a question on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” on Monday about tweets by comedian and TV personality Chelsea Handler in the wake of the Sunday shooting at a Sutherland Springs Baptist church that killed 26 people, half of them children.

“Innocent people go to church on Sunday to honor their God and ... get shot [and] killed,” Handler tweeted. “What country? America. Why? Republicans.” She also complained that the “government watches these mass shootings and does nothing.”

In a dig at Handler and apparently others clamoring for increased gun controls, Conway said that the “rush to judgment, particularly by people who just see politics and Trump derangement in every single thing they do, it doesn’t help the victims, and it’s disrespectful to the dead.”

1. Yeah, right...this from the crypt keeper...

[RKP5637]

6. So much in common ...

[brush]

27. I'm so sick of her act...a good little winger soldier. Just give her the talking points and...

she keeps talking and talking and talking and talking and talking.

You can't get her lying ass to STFU.

[RKP5637]

29. She's nauseating!!! n/t

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. It's been almost five years since the Sandy Hook school shooting.

Is it still too soon after that, too?

[workinclasszero]

13. Yep its always

too soon for the merchants of death to talk about the results of their work in arming every man, woman and child with a deadly weapon in Trump's bloody Amerika.

[RKP5637]

3. Conway ... I wonder how much she is payed for spreading her BS. I wonder if it's a flat rate

or huge perks the more outrageous she is.

[spanone]

4. they regurgitate this shit every time this happens....the dead are dead conway...

their right to live deserves respect

[rzemanfl]

5. With the steady flow of dead.... n/t

[moda253]

7. Every single time they repeat this we need to cast them as having blood on their hands

Every single time they repeat this we need to cast them as having blood on their hands... Not just the blood of the recently murdered, but the blood of the past and the blood of the future.

That is our talking point. The fact that spousal abusers can go out and legally buy guns and that they can legally keep the guns they have is directly putting our public at risk. They need to be held accountable for inaction on this.

[samnsara]

8. and she should know...

[longship]

9. Here's Kellyanne in action!

Kellywise!

Brilliant SNL skit.

HEY, HEY, DON'T TALK TO HER. EVERY DAY SHE DRAGS SOMEBODY INTO THAT SEWER, DOWN THERE WHERE THE DOODIES ARE.

DON'T BELIEVE ME? YESTERDAY SHE GOT RACHEL MADDOW.

Brilliant stuff from SNL.

10. I'd actually say let's wait until tomorrow.

I'd rather not have a bunch of old white men going to the polls in Virginia today and voting Republican purely to keep their guns.

[Freedomofspeech]

11. Kelly Anne Conjob disrespects the living everytime she opens her mouth.

[Bucky]

12. Debating climate change disrespects the polar bears. Debating the debt disrespects the Benjamins

Debating Republicans disrespects the science of logic

[Thor_MN]

14. Tell the Gorgon that this discussion is about Las Vegas, notSutherland Springs

If it's too soon for Las Vegas, then let's talk Sandy Hook, or Aurora, or...

This bullshit version of "There's a hole in the bucket" has got to stop.

[lagomorph777]

15. Avoiding debate is like urinating on the dead.

This is exactly the time for it (well, 13 years ago was the right time; we're a few dozen massacres late).

[Freethinker65]

16. Allowing more mass murders respects the dead. Got it. Thx

[Blaukraut]

17. Doing nothing again and again after a mass shooting disrespects the dead n/t

[muntrv]

18. Translation: It's never a good time to talk about gun control.

[workinclasszero]

20. Bingo

[SoCalDem]

24. there IS a time to talk about guns

the 25th hour of the 41st of Never

[kydo]

19. She is right. The fact we waited this long does indeed disrespect all the dead from past shootings.

It should have been talked about decades ago. It's people like kellyiamreallytheitmonster, that disrespect not just the dead but the living as well, each time she breathes much less talks.

[Arkansas Granny]

21. At the rate these mass shootings are happening, there will never be a suitable time.

Maybe they should check with the electorate about their feelings on gun control. It appears that people in both parties are tired of the killing and bloodshed.

28. So... in Kellyanne's ghoulish mind...

it's perfectly respectful to make more dead people.

[3catwoman3]

30. She must be a mental shape-shifter...

...to be able to contort her thinking in such an impossible fashion.

[JDC]

31. She is a Grade A Asshole.
