Florida Gov. Scott responds to question "what can the rest of us do?" with "Pray." [View all]
Pray for this, pray for that. Not a word about more strongly supporting the fight against homophobia, not a word about supporting an assault weapons ban.
The most we who are horrified about this tragedy can do is... pray.
I'm not knocking prayer. I am pointing out the travesty of not looking at what action we can take that will have a direct preventive impact on this. Advocacy can make a difference. So can voting.
On edit: CNN just reporting that he was known to be homophobic.
