Lawmakers Comment On Minnesota Tragedy

There are days when sarcasm and sharp wit are enough to highlight the absurdities of politics. And then there are days like this—days when the mask comes off and the sheer hostility toward people of faith is laid bare for all to see.

The facts are not in dispute: a transgender-identifying individual opened fire inside a Catholic school during Mass in Minneapolis, killing two children and wounding many more. It was an act of evil, pure and unfiltered. But what followed in the media and from Democratic leaders was almost as revealing as the tragedy itself.

Instead of mourning with Christians or respecting their grief, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey mocked their faith. “And don’t just say this is about ‘thoughts and prayers,’ right now. These kids were literally praying!” he said, as if their prayers were some kind of punchline. At the same time, Michael Steele on MSNBC went further, calling prayer itself “a lie.” And Frey doubled down on CNN, sneering that “thoughts and prayers are not enough.”

This is not just disrespect. This is contempt. To Christians, prayer is not a throwaway phrase—it is the foundation of faith. To suggest that prayer is “not enough” is to deny its very essence, which is that God is enough, even in the face of evil. To call prayer a lie, in the immediate aftermath of Christians being murdered while praying, is to trample on the very thing that gave them strength in their final moments.

Prayer is not freaking enough. Prayers does not end school shootings. prayers do not make parents feel safe sending their kids to school. Prayer does not bring these kids back. Enough with the thoughts and prayers.

And then, as if on cue, Frey pivoted—not to the children, not to the grieving families, not to the Christian community whose sanctuary had been violated—but to defending the “trans community” from criticism. The victims were barely an afterthought. The killer’s ideology and identity were dismissed. The real priority, according to Democrats, was to make sure no one dared to connect the dots.

That’s not compassion. That’s moral inversion. Imagine the twisted logic: mock Christians for praying, accuse them of clinging to a “lie,” then immediately shield the broader community that produced the shooter from scrutiny, treating them as the true victims. It is grotesque. It is evil masquerading as virtue.

And it doesn’t stop there. Democrats demand more gun control in a state that already has red flag laws and strict regulations—as though one more law would have stopped a radicalized young person who had been planning a massacre for years. They push “gender-affirming care” that destabilizes confused youth with powerful drugs, then act shocked when some of them spiral into rage and violence. And when the consequences explode into public view, their solution is to blame prayer and demand obedience to their ideology.

These children were probably praying when they were shot to death at catholic school. Don’t give us your fucking thoughts and prayers.

Trump got rid of the Office of Gun Violence Prevention. Trump gutted the resources that were in place to keep our communities safe. https://t.co/Jd0ad8pY3E

This is why fatigue sets in. This is why patience runs out. It is not just the failure of leadership, but the open hatred of faith itself. Democrats have convinced themselves that they are gods—that they can remake creation, redefine biology, and scoff at the very act of worship. But they are not gods. They are fallen men and women, who have dragged society to the cliff’s edge and still refuse to admit what they’ve done.
