  1. Nothing is going to change. Greg Abbot is an absolute pos. He doesn’t care.

  2. So,…..families from one staged event,….supporting familes of another staged event?…………got it.

  3. It broke my heart but at the end of the day, I will blame Texans since they are the ones voting for these Republican scumbugs years after years.

  4. Politically motivated for a payoff by Democrats..there's No gun control in Mexico

  5. Actions speak louder than words, so true.

  6. Mrs. Mata Rubio you and your family are so loving and brave. As a mother of a 6 year old beautiful girl who literally is the air I breathe, I cant imagine what the pain you feel everyday. Yet, here yall are fighting for your baby because she can't. You are fighting for all of our children as well. Thank you.

  7. Sorry but no gun control or constitutional laws would have stopped this

  8. Where's Alex Jones????? This is sooooooo staged!!!! If I die today from a mass shooter, don't take away peoples right to defend themselves!!!! The government don't care about us they only care about having control!!!!!!!

  9. Kim Rubio, Thank you for fighting for children of America. It's never been worse time to be a child in America than last 15 years.

  10. I feel bad for Lexy’s mom but no sympathy for Felix for 2 reasons. 1) he didn’t save his daughter even if he was in the hall. He could have went in and saved kids because he’s trained for that 2) he is a mandilón and only lets his wife talk on camera and does what she says. 100 sissy

  11. you are watching this courtesy from the Republican party with sponsorship from the NRA….enjoy, more story’s to come in upcoming days or weeks. If this make you mad vote them out.

  12. Sorry for you loss but your law makers won’t listen, it’s no longer a rare occurrence, every time it happens we hear the same old BS and then nothing happens until the next time and then we hear the same old BS and on nothing happens and on it goes. I wish everyone peace and love and until the next time be safe ❤

  13. Use your power , vote out politicians that put guns , gun lobby ahead of our children .

  14. The disgusting part is Texas voted for that monster Greg abott who has a deaf ear

  15. is politicians rly for the ppl anymore?

  16. BOYCOTT BUSINESSES until legislation is passed. This must STOP NOW.

  17. God, I can't imagine being a republican and having to look these people in the face.

  18. I lost my friend cindy to the allen mall shooting. She is the sweetest person u can meet

  19. sad you lost your kid, but no amount of your tears will disarm me. you want me to be as vurinable as your son? why? because misery loves company? no thanks, idc how many crying moms make scripted speeches. i know this mom didnt write this speech

  20. ANOTHER RepubliKKKan Endorsed Mass Murder. #RepubliCunts #FUCKgregAbbott #Repeal2A

  21. Mexico looks pretty now.

  22. Well I call for congress to address mental health issues

  23. YOU WON'T GET GUN REFORM WHILE ABBOTT IS IN POWER. WHAT YOU NEED IS POLITICIAN REFORM. IF THE GUNS WON'T GO, THE CONSERVATIVE POLITICIANS NEED TO GO. THE PROBLEM IS NOW PRETTY OBVIOUS, IT'S ALL ON THE POLITICIANS.

  24. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is not to sell him a gun in the first place!

  25. They look so alone. What is wrong with America?

  26. Keep on voting the useless ABBOT and this will continue. Im Texan and terribly disappointed with my fellow Texans keeping non voting ABBOT!

  27. No new gun law or bill will get past until new politicians are elected that won't take pay outs. These politicians are giving bags of cash not to pass new guns. This Sucks

  28. If my family was shot in front of me tomorrow I wouldn't change my opinion on being pro 2A. Fix the problem don't just have an endless cycle of exchanging one problem for another until all freedom is eroded.

  29. Thank You for the Uvalde Families for their heartbreaking stories & speaking on gun reform! GOP congress have received $4 million in their pockets from NRA to NOT pass any gun reform! I wish our president could just make an executive law,but I think that’s not possible or it would have been done already.
