And some other folks on Twitter had this to say...
This is what terrorism feels like. We are vulnerable in our most sacred spaces. Innocents are slaughtered. None of us are safe.

I have some “thoughts and prayers,” @speakerRyan. I think that your cynical acquiescence to this rot in the service of greed is shameful.

They were in church. They had the prayers shot right out of them. Maybe try something else.

At this point, "thoughts and prayers" just means "shut up and take it"

They were already in a church, Paul. It’s almost like prayers do absolutely nothing and actual reform is needed. https://t.co/hGWpODfULs
