Gun control activist David Hogg accused Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) of being complicit in the death of a friend who was killed in Monday's shooting at a bank in downtown Louisville, Kentucky.
Scott said his friend, Tommy Elliott, "was my banker for many years. This news is very shocking and sad for Ann and me. He did so much in the Louisville community, and we pray for his family during this awful time."
"Must be tough knowing you’re complicit," Hogg responded.

Hogg also quoted tweeted Scott's statement and said, "Rick Scott as one of the most powerful people in the country has not passed a single thing in the senate to reduce gun violence"
Rick Scott as one of the most powerful people in the country has not passed a single thing in the senate to reduce gun violence. I’m sorry for your loss but is protecting easy access to weapons like the AR-15 really worth the cost? https://t.co/HAen8OXIp4

This is what @RepMTG was talking about with a national divorce. One half of the country thinks like this about the other -- no other way to come together. https://t.co/Oli5wxfDG1
