After a gunman opened during Mass at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, killing two children and injuring 17 others, the Democrat lashed out that “Prayer is not freaking enough.”
“Prayers does not end school shootings,” she added. “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.”
Vance stepped into inform Psaki why so many people turn to God in prayer.
“We pray because our hearts are broken,” he said. “We pray because we know God listens. We pray because we know that God works in mysterious ways, and can inspire us to further action. Why do you feel the need to attack other people for praying when kids were just killed praying?”
He followed up, “Of all the weird left wing culture wars in the last few years, this is by far the most bizarre. ‘How dare you pray for innocent people in the midst of tragedy?!’ What are you even talking about?”
