It never takes long after a horrific tragedy for some politicians, media and entertainers to roll out the talking points even before all the facts are known (not that the facts matter to them anyway). The Democrats will appreciate some narrative assistance from “Family Guy” creator Seth MacFarlane:
Vote this fall. Knock the GOP on their asses at the polls, and you have a chance to stop this. Or keep them on their perch, keep enabling their greed, and live with the dark power of the gun lobby and all the killing it chooses to allow.
It’s your choice.
It’s that simple.— Seth MacFarlane (@SethMacFarlane) May 25, 2022
Does MacFarlane know who controls the White House, Senate and House of Representatives?
Uh. Which party is in complete power right now? Did I miss something? https://t.co/Fmpf8hoGiL

Democrats control both houses and the White House now. https://t.co/8GwSNaqBr6

But it’s still the Republicans’ fault or something.
Seth, it's not that simple. You may not be aware of this, but democrats have been in charge for a year and half, what does voting do republicans out do for you? You said it was simple, explain. https://t.co/u3g7OqSeTC

LOL. Its just like immigration. They want the issue to flap their gums, but they don't want to own any solution, because they don't have one.
Pop Quiz: which party is in control NOW and where is their proposed legislation? https://t.co/gcR5k3bVTu

The “do something” side tends to be short on describing what exactly that “something” is. But the elite certainly knows how to protect themselves.

Do yourself a favor and don’t try to approach Seth near his place of work to call out his tweet or you’ll face armed security. https://t.co/mApSv5jx8p

Wondering if he will forego armed security? https://t.co/UHd5TZKBxi

Are all the shootings in Chicago the fault of the GOP?
The Left’s kneejerk reaction after tragedies like this is collective cult-like behavior because to them it’s all about not letting a crisis go to waste.
