James Talarico: Frankly I am tired of the ‘thoughts and prayers’ rhetoric from our leaders.
There is something profoundly cynical about asking God to solve a problem that we're not willing to solve ourselves.
The time for thoughts and prayers is over. It's time for us to act.

Instead of responding only with thoughts and prayers, Australia will respond with laws and regulations. Because, unlike the United States, it values the lives of its citizens over any sick adulation of firearms.
The 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to immediate, sweeping, bipartisan gun law reforms.

Saw someone get mad at Martin St. Louis for saying "thoughts and prayers" to the people impacted by the shooting at Brown including his son.
You do realize he is a Canadian hockey coach, not a politician right?

I’ve seen two kids post that the Brown University shooting is the second school shooting they’ve survived.
This should enrage and radicalize everyone.
Kids shouldn’t have to survive one shooting, let alone two.
No more thoughts and prayers.
It’s time to address the guns.

In Australia, the response to a deadly and awful shooting is to promise to tighten gun laws.
In America the response is to send thoughts and prayers (if you're lucky).
But you won't get those from the president these days. More likely to get a tirade of hatred and blame.
