An ex-HuffPost editor has come under fire after sending a tweet that told a survivor from the 4th July Highland Park shooting to “go vote” after the victim shared a bloodied picture of her wounds online.
“I cant f***ing believe I was in the middle of a mass shooting,” wrote a woman, known only as Lilli, on Twitter on Monday following the brazen Independence Day shooting in Illinois’s Highland Park that left seven dead and dozens more sustaining injuries. “I’ve felt safe at this parade for 18 years and today I got hit with a bullet and nothing will change in America, this is ridiculous,” she added, garnering thousands of likes, comments and retweets.
