Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.) slammed Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) on Saturday for a photo Massie tweeted celebrating guns in the wake of a deadly school shooting in Michigan this week.
“Merry Christmas!” Massie’s tweet said, adding “ps. Santa, please bring ammo.” The accompanying photo pictured Massie and his family members holding various types of guns.
“I promise not everyone in Kentucky is an insensitive a**hole,” Yarmuth tweeted in response.
“I’m old enough to remember Republicans screaming that it was insensitive to try to protect people from gun violence after a tragedy,” he added. “Now they openly rub the murder of children in our faces like they scored a touchdown. Disgraceful.”

Massie’s tweet came just days after four teenagers were killed and seven other injured in a shooting at Oxford High School in Michigan.
