Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) “said any conversation about new gun restrictions isn’t appropriate at this moment — while families are grieving loved ones and others still lay in the hospital as a result of the Lafayette movie theater shooting,” the New Orleans Times-Picyaune reports.
Said Jindal: “I’m sure folks will try to score political points off this tragedy, as they have tried to do off previous tragedies. It hasn’t even been 24 hours. Let’s focus on these families.”
