Stephen King sounds off on Maine mass shooting: ‘Stop electing apologists for murder’
Maine native Stephen King called out the “madness” that led to Wednesday’s mass shooting in a Tweet on Thursday.
“The shootings occurred less than 50 miles from where I live,” wrote King, an outspoken advocate against gun violence. “I went to high school in Lisbon. It’s the rapid-fire killing machines, people.
“This is madness in the name of freedom,” he continued. “Stop electing apologists for murder.”
