Texas US senator Ted Cruz’s comment Saturday that he was “praying” for families of the eight victims killed in a shooting at a shopping mall in his state has sparked outrage as many critics say the Republican should advocate for meaningful gun control rather than repeatedly invoke prayer after mass, deadly violence.

Cruz has received more than $442,000 from organization which support keeping guns as accessible as possible, according to Axios and Open Secrets. He has used language referring to thought and prayers rather than restrictions on guns in reaction to other previous mass shootings in his state.

His critics bitch about everything he does.

Nothing new with that.

If he didn’t offer prayers they would be whining about that.

We are a nation of guns and the idea of controlling them at this point is simply not possible. The only options are to give good people guns and increase prison sentences for those that use them illegally

As a religious person myself, I know prayers are for those that can't do anything and are powerless to change things. It's insulting for those that are the literal forefront to anything changing or getting done to do it. It's like the doctor trying to pray away your cancer.
