South Carolina Congresswoman Nancy Mace told Fox News Sunday that Republicans offering silence, thoughts and prayers, and Easter baskets were not good enough as a response to mass shootings.
FNS brought up how bad the NRA conference looks for Republicans after so many mass shootings have taken place in 2023.
"Where does this conversation about guns go now?" host Shannon Bream asked.
"Well, we [Republicans] need to have this conversation," Rep. Mace replied. "I will tell you, every mass shooting. There's just... silence and prayers are offered, Easter baskets are offered, but no real solutions."
That's about as critical a judgment as I've heard a Republican make against their party on guns.
Rep. Mace described an incident with her kids after a South Carolina shooting and came to this conclusion.

"And Republicans can no longer be silent on this issue," she said. "There are plenty of things that we can be doing besides offering prayers and silence, some sort of Amber alert, for example, to let the community know there's been a shooting.'
