facebookWASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman Charles B. Rangel issued the following statement after learning of the tragic shooting in Aurora, Colorado that killed at least 12 and wounded more than 50 innocent people at a movie theater:
"I am deeply saddened as I join the nation in deep sorrow and shock upon hearing of the tragic shooting in Colorado.
May peace be with the family and friends who lost their innocent loved ones. Our prayers are with those who were wounded.
Such violent actions have absolutely no place in our society and will not be condoned. No civilized country has a complete disregard for the dangers of firearms and automatic weapons. We must confront the issue of gun violence in our communities."
