Another mass #schoolshooting, this time at Apalachee High school.

Here is how Trump responded to Nancy Pelosi being targeted in an assassination attempt and her husband being beaten nearly to death with a hammer. Political violence has no place in a democratic society. We must always, always condemn it, or we are lost. pic.twitter.com/xSSxrJDQM1
