Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot lashed out at Sen. Ted Cruz over the past two days after the Texas Republican said the city's violence was proof that"gun control doesn't work."
Lightfoot, who called for new federal gun laws in the wake of several deadly mass shootings this year, responded to the senator a few hours later, telling him not to discuss her city. The feud spilled over into Tuesday afternoon with Cruz doubling down on his previous comments and saying the mayor had"misplaced" her anger.
When @tedcruz and the @gop dismiss common sense gun policies, they disrespect victims and their families, who deserve to live without pain and fear.
