Democrat's Dumb Ass Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Mocks Prayer In Wake Of Deadly New Zealand Massacre Democrat's Dumb Ass Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Mocks Prayer In Wake Of Deadly New Zealand Massacre https://assets.rbl.ms/19277597/1200x600.jpg Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) mocked the notion of thoughts and prayers following Friday's deadly massacre in Christchurch, New Zealand, which took the lives of at least 49 people and injured many. An accused mass killer opened fire on two different mosques during times of prayer. Authorities charged at least one person in the attack and detained three more. What did she say? In what the freshman congresswoman later described as a slam on the National Rifle Association, Ocasio-Cortez questioned the usefulness of thoughts and prayers during a tragedy like the one in New Zealand. Shortly after the news broke, Ocasio-Cortez addressed comments made by New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. In her remarks, Ardern mentioned that her "thoughts" were with those grieving over the deadly mass killing. Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, "At 1st I thought of saying, 'Imagine being told your house of faith isn't safe anymore.' But I couldn't say 'imagine.' Because of Charleston. Pittsburgh. Sutherland Springs. What good are your thoughts & prayers when they don't even keep the pews safe?"
