Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick tweets vile message after Orlando shootings
Texas Republican tweets "reap what you sow" after 50 people slain in LGBT nightclub
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.”
–Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R), on Twitter, after at least 50 people were killed and a further 53 injured at a mass shooting in a gay nightclub in Orlando.
Update: Patrick has since erased the tweet, but we’ve saved it via screenshot.
Unsurprisingly, Twitter responded negatively to Patrick’s repugnant message. (Warning: Strong language.)
I would never normally stoop to your levels of homophobia @DanPatrick and acknowledge you but I want 600k to see how much of a cunt you are

@DanPatrick You pervert Christianity in a way that would make Jesus cringe. Where is your compassion?

@DanPatrick @dimecoverage Tweeted as news breaks of mass casualties at a gay nightclub. Vile. Have you no shame?
