We’re really sorry. We’re sorry for you, the reader, and we’re sorry for us, for having to follow Alyssa Milano as she “helps” by tweeting things so gross and opportunistic — we don’t even have an official count of the dead in Saturday’s mass shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, but Milano’s already at the customer service desk registering her suggestion with the manager.
We're in shock over the tragic events at Cielo Vista Mall in El Paso, where store 2201 & club 6502 are located. We’re praying for the victims, the community & our associates, as well as the first responders. We’re working closely with law enforcement & will update as appropriate.

Hey, @Walmart! This would be a great opportunity for you to take a true leadership position and stop selling guns. https://t.co/JcQ6BvTbUe

Never pass up a great opportunity, especially if the bodies are still warm.
Never miss an opportunity to take a tragedy and turn into something political. SMH #TheLeftExposed

Hey, @Alyssa_Milano ! This would be a great opportunity for you to stop politicizing a tragedy!

If people did a scintilla of research instead offering up knee jerk reactions like this, we’d all be better off. Walmart stopped selling firearms like this in 2015 and they only sell handguns in their Alaska stores. https://t.co/ApVUbqybkR

Walmart also:
1. Raised the age of any firearm purchase to 21
2. Won’t allow a sale until a background check is completed. Federal law allows the sale to go through after 3 days without a denial.
3. Does not sell bump stocks or high capacity magazines— Jay Caruso (@JayCaruso) August 3, 2019
@Walmart doesn’t sell guns stupid they stopped along time ago. You and you socialist Hollywood dope heads are always opening your mouth and don’t have a clue what your talking about.

@Walmart doesn’t sell these. F- idiot
— CoffeyJPC ?? (@JpcCoffey) August 3, 2019
They don’t sell those type of weapons.
— Yeti (@YetiEye) August 3, 2019
They have not been selling these types of weapons since 2015. Guns are not the problem, people are. #UniversalBackgroundCheck #MentalHealthReform #GunRightsRestrainingOrder
— John Price (@JPrice02) August 3, 2019
I am willing to bet that Walmart does not even sell the type of gun used.
— Bluzguitar (@bluzguitar) August 3, 2019
They don’t sell assault rifles or hand guns. Mostly bb or pellet rifles.
— Tim (@conlotim) August 3, 2019
Obviously you never been to a Walmart. They only sell BB guns
— Dana B. Kirk (@DanaBKirk1) August 3, 2019
And even the sight to those pellet guns line up for sale has given some the vapors.
Her followers are not smart people.

How often do you suppose Alyssa and her Pals shop Walmart?
— Redlion's Den (@eddiern24) August 3, 2019
Wow you vulture…dont even let the bodies get cold before spewing your rhetoric, do you??
— CarolinaConservative (@1776CC) August 3, 2019
Families haven’t even received notifications yet and here you are trying to take advantage of the situation.
You’re an awful human being. Make NO MISTAKE.

Did he buy the gun at Walmart, Alyssa?
— Torrey M. Spears ?? (@torreymspears) August 3, 2019
Great opportunity to politicize a tragedy.
— Rev. Justice Jackson Jr Esq. 2.0 (@TrumpzArmy) August 3, 2019
Wow, it's like you turned this tragedy around and blamed Walmart for the deaths. You are truly a piece of shit.
— Eddieriffic USN (Vet.) (@Eddie7757) August 3, 2019
Did they sell the shooter the gun….???
— SECRET SQUIRREL (@SecritSqrl) August 3, 2019
That doesn’t matter when you’re virtue signaling. All that matters is how fast you jump to conclusions and how many buzz words you use. Right @BetoORourke
— Bob The Builder (@Dzydvl) August 3, 2019
I’m sure he walked right in, bought the firearm and then started shooting…
— JimG (@jgeorge64) August 3, 2019
Where did your armed security buy their guns?
— MICHELLE FLYNN (@Ummmmichelle) August 3, 2019
Wow…… using this tragedy to push your gun control agenda on the same day it happened….. you are an absolutely huge pile of human garbage.
— Kanye Abe (@Lincoln_Martini) August 3, 2019
This would be a great opportunity for you to take a breath and wait for the story to fully develop. Ha. Who am I kidding?
— Gary Eaton (@garysteveneaton) August 3, 2019
Hey, Dems, this would be a great time to get rid of gun-free zones so that people can protect themselves from terrorists who don’t give a ? that it’s illegal to bring a gun into one of your “zones”.
— Kimmie (@GimmeKimmiee) August 3, 2019
Hey @Alyssa_Milano this would be a great opportunity to get off Twitter.
