TV Personality Says School Shootings Would Stop With 1 Sick Action
Former MTV VJ and Israeli model Becky Griffin spoke out against the mass shooting in Florida with some bizarre remarks that amounted to the absolute worst take on the situation.
Griffin, who appeared on MTV Europe in the early 2000s, wrote on Twitter that the shooting would not have happened if the birth mother of alleged shooter Nikolas Cruz would have aborted him instead of putting him up for adoption.
If you think this is a twisted way of thinking, you’re not alone.
“Woman puts baby up for adoption, he grows up to be a violent young man who will spend the rest of his life in prison for a mass murder. Tell me more about how abortions are wrong,” she said.

Yes, she actually said that.
Griffin’s tweet referred to the fact that Cruz was adopted, as reported by The Associated Press. Cruz’s adoptive parents both passed away last year.
After severe backlash for her sickening tweet, Griffin attempted to clarify.
I’m adopted. I’ve never been arrested in my life. I’m just kinda glad to be here. You wouldn’t understand. Only squeal: “YEEEEEEAAAAH ABORTION!” 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🙄🙄🙄🙄

My kids are adopted. They're still very young. Would you look them in the eye and say they should've been… aborted? Because they're adopted? It hurts me to the core that people like you exist. Still, I'm glad YOU weren't aborted.

As is the case when most leftists open their mouths to explains things, she only made matters worse.
“This drew so much attention by ppl jumping to conclusions like I think adoption is wrong, when all I said was that a woman who was clearly unfit to have a child — did — did NOT raise him — and maybe it could have turned out better if she could have made a CHOICE.”
Lol. This drew so much attention by ppl jumping to conclusions like I think adoption is wrong, when all I said was that a woman who was clearly unfit to have a child — did — did NOT raise him — and maybe it could have turned out better if she could have made a CHOICE. https://t.co/sWFTuprsYF

Clearly in Griffin’s mind “CHOICE” is synonymous with murder of an unborn child.
As one would expect, Griffin drew ire from just about everyone for such callous remarks.
Conservative commentator and editor-in-chief of The Daily Wire Ben Shapiro made an obvious counter point:
Woman puts baby up for adoption, he turns out to be Steve Jobs. Tell me again how abortions are right. https://t.co/YpDZ38K7vg

How is murdering the innocent the solution to murder of the innocent?!
Promoting life as sacred and precious and made in the image of God is the answer to violence not the problem.
Some adopted children experience difficulties but to insinuate that an “unfit” woman should abort her baby is grotesque.
It is sad that liberals use tragedies like mass shootings to promote their political agendas, but they will do it every time.
