'This is on you': Beto O'Rourke confront Texas Gov. Greg Abbott over school shooting in Uvalde.

Beto O'Rourke interrupted a press conference Wednesday about the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, calling the tragedy “totally predictable when you choose not to do anything.”

O'Rourke was escorted out while members of the crowd yelled at him, with one man shouting profanities at O'Rourke. The Democrat is challenging Gov. Greg Abbott in this year's election.O'Rourke, as he was being escorted out, turned around, faced the stage, pointed his finger and said: “This is on you until you choose to do something different. This will continue to happen.

Abbott says the gunman who killed 19 children and two teachers at an elementary school warned on social media minutes before the attack that he was going to shoot up a school. He says the shooter, 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, used an AR-15 in the attack Tuesday at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde.

Using the shooting to improve his political profile is as low as it gets.

Classless. Where the parents of victims are waiting to hear from the governor and officials— he grandstands politically.

Epic

He is a true blue man. Bless him👏🏼

Scavenger ambulance chaser! Looking to advance his career off this tragedy.

If there's a tragedy, a liberal is there to dance on the graves for attention. Despicable behaviour.

Let’s just take a moment and just maybe kids will matter more than your precious guns. Or at the very minimum your automated large magazine style ones.. there is absolutely no reason to own one period.

Wow there is some common sense down there! Oh was governor Abbot sitting there with a Sheriff’s badge? Hey did he have a gun in his belt too?

Why are the Republicans even there. Didn't they persecute and incarcerate most of those kids ?

Never let a good tragedy to go by to push an agenda

They claim it is a mental health issue. Then why was he allowed to buy semi-automatic weapons? The lack of action is on the legislators. Invest in mental health services instead of fighting an fraudulent culture war. The United States stands alone in the world on this issue.

Low class move to crash such a press conference.

100% on him. What a bunch of morons! Yes I said it, morons!!! They don’t have the common sense to see things for what they are. They should be ashamed of themselves and their indecisiveness to act accordingly. Those poor children. 😞

We need to find out what’s in the heads of these berserkers

it completely is...blood on his hands...of innocent children...

love this Gov... HE is so right..

Good on this man for having the balls to say what needs to be said!

The bloods on GregAbbott_TX tedcruz nra hands and BetoORourke has more balls than any of the good old boys up on stage

Staged

About time someone stands up and calls out these hypocrites. Thoughts and prayers but does nothing to prevent acts of terror like this.

Much respect to him. What a ghastly country America is.

I guess they can’t handle the truth and then

Good for him.
