in a statement that he and his family “are devastated by the tragedy that took place at The Covenant School in Nashville this morning.”
The 2021 photo, which Ogles shared on Facebook, showed him, his wife and two of his three children holding weapons and smiling in front of a Christmas tree.“MERRY CHRISTMAS!” Ogles wrote, adding a line that is often — and dubiously — credited to George Washington: “The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference — they deserve a place of honor with all that’s good.
On Monday, Ogles’s critics shared the congressman’s statement about the shooting along with the Christmas photo.

Well of course he’s “heartbroken”, yet won’t do a damn thing but “pray”…
It's not any firearm, I can put mine in the middle of the room and I can assure you that it does absolutely nothing, it's the AG's and judges that won't prosecute the criminals, not the firearms.🇺🇸
A gun did not kill these people. A mentally ill MAN who was socially washed to believe he could change his sex. More killings occur where gun laws are prevalent.
Hateful transgender psycho murders Christians Post: “It’s Republicans’ fault”
Whatever your level of hatred for journalists is, it isn't nearly enough.
Agree, and by association a trans woman killed 6 in Tennessee today, and Dems advocate for trans.
Hey Washington compost, did this congressman go and shoot anyone? I don't think so. Do they transgender go and shoot a bunch of Christian kids? Yes. Get your story straight you ridiculous piece of garbage.
What a dipsh!t headline for WP. Liberals are behind all these shootings. Their agenda demands it.
NickKave Poor him
Yes. I’m sure this shooter modeled herself after this republicans congressman. It was probably her idol. 🙄
It’s sad that the doors to the school were left open, yet again, for any crackpot to enter. SecureTheSchools
Absolutely shameless
Senator Blackburn took $1.25 million from the NRA.
Guns dont kill. People do. Is that killer a man or woman?
What does his family photo have to do with a political maniac killing innocent people? Huh National enquirer?
And? Indont see you clowns blaming cars when a drunk driver kills people
Enemy of the people
F..cking Washington Post and f..cking commenters here - make me sick. Your empathy goes only as far as somebody's pronouns being misplaced. I have gun stored safely in a safe, means I can't be heartbroken too?
And?
Again, why I'd rather get my news devined from my dogs' crap droppings. It'd be more accurate and smell better than the WP. You can own a firearm AND show condolences at someone's death. UNlike the WP, which can't report and be truthful at the same time.
TRANSGENDER
Heartbroken but won’t do a damn thing
Mental illness pulled the trigger
140,000 people die from alcohol each year. Anyone had a picture holding a drink? Yet only 500 rifle homicides happen a year and the WP freaks when someone has a picture of holding a gun.
In the future, in the near future, because this is happening again soon, I hope Republicans keep their damn mouth shut and just go and entertain themselves on the next shooting.
This lad is a complete ass
AndyOgles
This is a good family, showing first amendment guns in their household. What’s wrong with that? It was a PERSON that killed those people today. It was a mentally ill individual.
Another fucking charlatan!
Was this the republican who lied about his resume or do I have him confused with every other republican?
We need to have guns to protect ourselves from thugs let out of jail by commie Soros judges and as a warning to would be demoncrat party ductators. Jefferson said we may need them.
So what? It's his right to own guns
Jesus H America who gives a shit about this NAZI Republican this SOB is a MURDER just like Blackburn
You can be heartbroken about a person’s choice to harm others and still support 2A.
Absolutely despicable reporting Washington Post. What's a photo of the congressman with firearms have to do with the transgender going on a murderous rampage against Christians today? If I follow your logic, a pilot pictured with an aircraft can't seriously be 'heartbroken'…
It doesn’t matter what he says. They are beholden to the NRA and creating chaos and trauma completely unnecessarily. Other countries have figured this out. It’s gaslighting, and it’s a disgrace.
He didn't kill anyone
Bad taste . You couldn't wait a day?
So a family photo has firearms. Nancy took pictures with Capitol police who killed two unarmed people on Jan 6th
The wanker wasn't heartbroken when he took NRA's money. He wasn't heartbroken when he had his family pose for his gun fetish photo.
The shooter was a trans. She used pronouns he/him. She was a liberal.
Umm.. isn’t it more important that this event happened on a week where public figures are making comments about bearing arms and activists are pushing for “vengeance” rather than a family photo where all members are using proper gun safety?
So what?
Not really a gotcha
What relevance does it have? The vast majority of legal gun owners don’t shoot up schools. For goodness sake, practice journalism for once.
Ppl are over politicans being heartbroken and doing nothing.
Unrelated and you continue to prove yourselves as enemies of the people.
NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS BS ANYMORE!Republicans are absolutely destroying this country! If you're sick of shootings, attacks on gays, transgender, women's rights, our justice system and our schools then VOTE REPUBLICANS OUT!
Oh great. More sperg logic.
Washington Post contributor:
WTF does that imply?
So? Did they shoot anyone?
He should be furious about lack of guns in the hands of students instead of “heartbroken”.
And he and his family are innocent, as am I. The wackos choose the AR-15 because it helps them get the attention they want, their 10 minutes of fame. And you give it to them. The AR is actually a poor weapon.
If he’s heartbroken, he can do some about sensible gun legislation. He’s in Congress and the GOP blocks most sensible gun legislation. They take money from the gun lobby and they do what the NRA and the gun manufacturers tell them to do.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪🤪🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
It’s a tragedy. It’s avoidable. There needs to be more family-child-credits, basic healthcare coverage to every American, exceptional mental health services available to all ages, teens, young adults, adults, elderly. Background checks, weapon’s registration, training. Essential
He didn't kill anybody did he?
So what. He didn’t shoot anybody you dolts.
Get bent WaPo. None of the people in Rep Ogles's family killed children in a private Christian school today. His Christmas card, even in poor taste, is just as unrelated as someone posing with their new car years ago and then being heartbroken about a drunk driving accident.
Lol he said the line
dbchirpy you live by the sword, you die by the sword. Jesus told all Christians put down your sword, follow me. Nope. They say they love Jesus, while holding weapons of hate. abc cbs nbc cnn FoxNews
What the hell does that have to do with anything?
Do you plan on letting your followers know the shooter was transgender? You let them know every time one is appointed in the Biden Admin. Look forward to your response.
If only his armed family had been there to prevent this tragedy, right? They dropped the ball.
American Christianity, churches, Pastors, Bishops and theologians stood with and justified that one of the biggest evils this nation is facing is that they religionized,christianised, and dignified the gun culture more than the value of the life of humans.
Was the shooter one of Joe Biden's millons of violent illegal immigrants that are crossing over the border to kill Americans ? It's incredibly likely at the point of his catastrophic presidency. Pray for all the families.😔🙏
This tweet is shameful.
You want white genocide, we get it
I guess it doesn't matter to the radical socialist control freaks that more people are murdered in the U.S. with hammers, feet, and fists than with any type rifle, including semi-automatic AR-15s? FactChecked
Sounds like an anti-Christian hate crime to me
And yet, no one in his family shot anyone.
Did the congressman shoot up that school? Or did the Democrat trans activist?
This isn’t a gun issue. It’s a mental health issue.
You're blaming him? Blame the trans:
The media is your enemy.
Never ever subscribe or read the . It’s a corporate news organization. Do you know who owns the Post? Amazon’s Jeff Bezos.
Eat 💩
So what? That family is less likely to become victims.
These suicidal grand exits should not be given worldwide coverage. The news media is knowingly creating copycat killers. Nashville SchoolShooting This should be kept a local story.
If only those teachers had guns 🤷
potus and the evil democrats want to disarm the population. They don’t care about kids . Democrats don’t say a peep when multiple kids are shot every weekend in Democrat cities
Democrats had control of the House Senate and Executive for 2 Years
Are there any GOP who are not willing to sacrifice children to get more bribes from gun and ammunition manufacturers?
These Republican politicians who do these family photos with their kids all hugging guns always remind me of school shootings. It’s truly sickening to me.
He doesn't care . . .
WaPO do you know who is the shooter
What does his photo have to do with some psycho killing people?
is the EnemyOfThePeople. TransTerrorism
Interesting. Thought you should know what your employee thinks.
Shooter identified as he/she
I actually wondered if one of his children (shown in his Christmas photo with a long gun each) were students at that school.
Wait. no photo of him with a heart shaped box of chocolates?
Transgender suspect targeted Christian Children Hate Crime
You can be heartbroken about a car accident but still drive a car
How quick can you politicize an event, go
I’m sad for people getting shot, but let’s focus on a Christmas card from 2021 like they linked. Hard hitting journalism here lol
Hypocrisy at its best
To hell with that hypocrite!
yes his kids handle firearms. Somehow he's been able to be a good enough father than his children know not to shoot up a school
Most shootings happen where? DEMOCRAT TOWNS with handguns and YOU hypocrites sit here as if YOU CARE.. when you IGNORE what happens in your own towns. FAKE OUTRAGE.
VoteIsAntidote He’s the problem.
Ban assault weapons and fund mental healthcare programs clinics !
It's ok to both own firearms and not want children murdered.
RepOgles heartbroken? Not even close. What we want to know is the NUMBER - how many dead innocents will it take before you finally take action on common sense gun control?
Blood on his hands.
Check out his family's Christmas card a year ago: everyone, his children included, standing in front of a big Christmas tree, all proudly sporting their guns with big Cheshire smiles on their faces. There is no getting through to these people. They have a sick fetish for guns.
So what? They were legally owned and there are not even allegations of misuse. NewsGhouls
This is the headline you choose to run? Fucking Christ you people have no shame. Grow up you pansies!
Did he shoot anyone?
He’s lying.
His heart is truly broken because he won't take measures to protect his constituents children, let alone American children, or even in this case Christian children. He has no sense of morality. A truly beautiful roken heart. It's weak.
Just how “heartbroken”? As heartbroken and terrified as this young child?
Marsha, Marsha, Marsha, what’s the magic number? There are 393M guns in the US & only 363M people. Will it take 500M guns, 600M guns, 700M, 800M or a billion guns until all Americans are safe?
What grooming looks like
I bet the cretin is pro life as well. What a screwed up ideology!
You can be heartbroken for these people and the community. If he’s a law abiding citizen than he can have firearms. One does not negate the other.
gotta have a heart first 🤨
This is disingenuous. Just because you are a gun advocate doesn’t mean you can’t be upset when someone used firearms for nefarious, evil reasons.
The Washington Post doing it’s political demonization at every opportunity. So unprofessional but typical.
Lowlife trash could care less about other people’s children.
Nothing a big fat NRA cannot mend
Is this a joke? The guy with his entire family holding guns in his Christmas card?
How will anything change with people like this in office?
So? The shooter was a trans woman Should we not allow trans women in photos?
Were his firearms legal? Wanna bet the shooter's weren't?
It’s the guns. Ban assault weapons now.
He is the reason for shootings. He glorifies guns and provides them to underage children.
I’m done. The GOP spends their time interfering with civil rights & medical treatment, obstructing prosecutions, and banning books while our children die because they handout firearms without restriction and allow weapons of war onto our streets. No more GOP.
And?
Yeah: “heartbroken”
Republicans are cockroaches
With todays Covenant School shooting even Christian Schools are vulnerable. They don’t have the funds to support retrofitting their schools technically or providing armed private security. Who will fund their protection?
Because posing with your own guns means you totally embrace transgender child killers.
they could care less!!!
Will the congressman work on gun violence reforms now?
What’s your point ? If one owns firearms they’re the moral equivalent of a murderer Legal gun owners are responsible for a fraction of “gun crimes”, they and their weapons are not the issue. Focus on the criminal and mentally ill, that’ll make progress.
🖕
Oh no!!! He and his family own guns! How terrible.
And what is Biden doing about this He’s the president, he’s been in politics 50 years . Not a thing .
He’s got more exposure from this card than anything in his whole life. I wonder how he *really* feels about it, nauseating statement aside. We all know who fills his trough.
So if a person who stands with a large fucking truck in a photo and that same model is used to run over a bunch of people by some lunatic, should we feel bad because we own that same model of vehicle
This is just a despicable headline but that’s typical of .
You have blood on your hands, Ogles.
I have had a number of weapons for more than 45 years....none of them have ever been violent......why?
You spelled complicit wrong. I guess you didn’t get his Xmas card.
I’m sorry so what? Yes he can be heartbroken but still support gun rights.
America will not be the first super power of the world if Mullahs make connection between China and Russia by land of Iran so help Iranians by free Internet to change Mullahs regime.
WaPo so pathetic with this. How about waiting 24 hours before starting your blame the Republicans bullshit.
A F....Hypocrite.
because people don't kill people, guns kill people.
He’s not brokenhearted. He would gladly take an NRA contribution right now
If andyogles is so heartbroken over yet another assault rifle massacre, why is he planning his 2024 Xmas card with more vile pictures of his family proudly displaying assault weapons? He &!his wife are utterly disgusting. NashvilleCovenantSchool Tennessee Uvalde AR-15
So his family has firearms. If you dont like the constitution then you are free to go live anywhere your heart desires in this planet. Guns are not the issue.
So? Deranged people are committing these murders, not law abiding citizens.
Stop platforming and repeating their worthless statements - at all. Unless he is begging forgiveness and announcing he’ll vote for an assault weapon ban and other common sense gun safety, he’s useless.
this one?
Ogles is only temporarily 'heartbroken' because he has to respond to angry criticism about his gun fetish for a few days. It will die down until the next mass shooting of children in which their bodies are torn to pieces by weapons like the one he used to celebrate Jesus's birth.
Wapo is nothing but a propaganda machine trying to spin a narrative ? How bout this one “ woman confused by her own gender commits murder on innocent helpless children. “
Republicans Hate America 🇺🇸 politically and Culturally.
He puts the ass in assault weapons. It's the fucking guns.
omg u r sooooo right!!! 😱 its definitely all the republicans fault 🤬 if they wood jus give up their precious guns we cud all live in a world without school shootings in Nashville 🤪 who needs the 2nd amendment anyway am i rite sarcasm blamegame nomoreguns
Voters got what they wanted.
My prayer goes to the families. Also wonder why that 28-yr-old woman did it.
Tbey just don't see or believe the connection between the gun worship and the constant killings.
This country is done— when you don’t give a shit about classrooms of dead children…….NRATerrorism
Ogles was gerrymandered into my congressional district by the TN legislature. He is a lying sorry sack who takes money from the gun lobby to defend assault weapons like the ones used today to murder children.
Sure he is!!!!!!!!!
I wrote this poem the day after the Parkland Florida massacre. Not much has happened since then to prevent more school shootings.
The photos shows proper weapons handling and safety, something you obviously don't know anything about! So, what is your point?
OMG. They own guns. Obviously they support the murdering of innocent citizens. Why, they'll probably go out and shoot a few themselves this evening just for fun.
