Adam Baldwin pushed back Wednesday against celebrities and Democratic leaders calling for more gun control following the school shooting in Parkland, Florida.
“[Nancy] Pelosi again demanding gun control. Again, the shooter was stopped by people with firearms,” the 55-year-old actor tweeted after a gunman killed at least 17 people at a Florida high school.

“Too many of these instances take place across the country. As leaders, we have a moral obligation to prevent them and protect our communities. We need more than thoughts and prayers. #EnoughIsEnough,” Pelosi tweeted after the shooting.

Celebrities like Mark Ruffalo, Nancy Sinatra, Chelsea Handler and others turned their ire on President Donald Trump and Republicans demanding “sensible gun laws” after the attack.
“Seventeen more of our young people dead, killed by a shooter with an automatic weapon he had no business having. WAKE UP @HouseGOP and pass sensible gun laws NOW. Stop the carnage. #guncontrol,” Nancy Sinatra tweeted.

“Another school shooting. This time in Florida. A white male is the gunman. Bet it’s STILL not time to talk about #GunControl,” Yvette Nicole Brown tweeted.

When
Will
The @GOP
Stop
Being
OWNED
By
The @NRA
And
FINALLY
Do
ANYTHING
About #GunControl?Never.
Their thoughts and prayers mean nothing.
We must replace them all.

You want taxpayers to spend $25 billion for a wall that will do virtually nothing to keep us safer. Meanwhile you and your party take money from the @NRA to prevent common sense #guncontrol reforms that could actually save lives. Shame. https://t.co/EHthRPS9sz

Prayers without accordant action are silent lies told to oneself, heard by no God, amounting to nothing. Action is the language of truth, the prayers of the Saints.

We have to elect candidates that are not funded by the NRA in November. We have an opportunity to elect candidates who won’t allow kids to go to school and get shot. It is disgusting how many times this has happened and Republicans do nothing. You all have blood on your hands.
