I had a hard time believing that he would actually post something this insulting to the victims of gun violence on his own Facebook page, but this is the kind of shit the guy knows his base of sick assholes thinks is funny.

If you visit his page make sure to leave a comment for him.

There is nothing funny about that. They are using a template that has become a humorous meme, and they they have used it poorly.

Geez, from his page:

Mitch McConnell
We love the memes you send us! Keep them coming

That's about all they can handle, memes. Forget any meaningful discourse. Bet he refuses to meet with the Sandy Hook victim's parents.

but really? Is this really the level of childishness he has reached? This has to be his staff, he can't be this immature can he? Or maybe he's in his second childhood and thinks he's cute...

This guy is an asshole, and when the blowback hits he won't be able to blame his staff when he allowed this piece of shit to stay so long.

Hypothetically, could McConnell act this way if his very own family were slaughtered by an unhinged gunman?

I mean, c'mon Mitch -- have you really no empathy at all?
