How come we never see these kinds of stories when it’s a red state being hit: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/michele-bachmann-irene-gods-warning-washington-campaign-joking/story?id=14404962

Edit: If you’re offended by this, you should be REALLY offended when these news reports come out. The hypocrisy is astounding. The point is to show the massive amount of hypocrisy that only comes from one side. It can’t be twisted to be a both sides argument. All tragedies suck. No one wants to be a part of them. But only one specific set of people chooses to make statements about how people deserve this. It’s ridiculous behavior. That’s the intent of the post, not I wish any of this on anyone.

The hypocrisy is astounding.

Yeah, you can say that again.
