CNN: Never Interview Rick Santorum on TV Again
Former U.S. Senator, presidential candidate and CNN commentator Rick Santorum astonishly said on CNN on March 25, 2018, that the student survivors from the Parkland, FL, mass shooting should take CPR classes instead of marching to demand tightening of gun laws. Trauma doctors and surgeons are condemning his unconscionable and incorrect medical advice. He should never be interviewed on CNN again.
Why is this important?
The students organized the March for Our Lives to call on government to enact common sense gun restrictions. They were exercising their First Amendment rights to petition the governement for legislation so students and others are safe. Rick Santorum said they should instead take personal, individual responsibility including enrolling in CPR classes and learning ways to respond to mass shootings and not look to government or others to solve problems.
Santorum should be dismissed forever as a CNN commentator and roundly condemned.
