When a madman with a bunch of guns opens fire on a crowd of concertgoers from the 32nd floor of a Las Vegas hotel, it seems like the last thing on anyone’s mind in the immediate aftermath would be politics.\u00a0 But that’s not the case if you’re former presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.<\/p>\n
At approximately 10 a.m. Monday morning, when many of us were just learning the details of the shooting at the Harvest country music festival on the Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, that left at least 50 dead and hundreds more wounded, Clinton took to Twitter to not only blast the nation’s gun lobby but also a popular pro-gun bill known as the SHARE Act.<\/a><\/p>\n Here’s what she wrote:<\/p>\n Las Vegas, we are grieving with you\u2014the victims, those who lost loved ones, the responders, & all affected by this cold-blooded massacre.<\/p>\n \u2014 Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) October 2, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Our grief isn’t enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again.<\/p>\n \u2014 Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) October 2, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Among other provisions, the SHARE Act contains the language from the Hearing Protection Act, a bill that would deregulate suppressors by removing them from the National Firearms Act.<\/p>\n\n
