Taylor Swift attacked for sending flowers to LV police

Music superstar Taylor Swift came under fire from liberal activists and left-wing radicals this week, just days after the pop star sent dozens of flowers to a police department whose officer was injured in last weekend’s devastating mass shooting in Las Vegas.

Swift sent several bouquets of flowers to the Los Angeles Police Department’s Foothill Community Police station, whose off-duty officer was hurt when Stephen Paddock opened fire on a country music festival on the Las Vegas strip.

An analyst with the LAPD thanked the singer on social media, writing, “Talk about a class act! @taylorswift sent multiple bouquets of flowers and plants to our station, as one of our officers was shot in Las Vegas last night. This is one of the smaller arrangements. Beautiful flowers can bring a smile to anyone’s face. Much respect."

Predictably, those on the left attacked Swift within minutes, saying “How about Taylor Swift send flowers to the families of the victims as well as the other 500+ people injured from the shooting”

I wonder how many people those who criticize her sent flowers to

It's important to give respects to the victims and their families, but without the police, Stephen Paddock would still be out there. They risked their lives for the sole purpose of protecting more people from danger. A lot of attention is on the victims, which is great, but we should also acknowledge the wonderful officers who prevented further catastrophe.

What’s wrong with this?

People need to calm down and stop getting angry at irrelevant things 

It's delusional and irrational people like this that hurt progressive movements.

People these days... criticising people for all types of nonsense. Blabbering **** when they do nothing nice themselves

[JGD 12,020]

I’d imagine it to be difficult to track every single victim of the shooting and send them flowers, whereas you already know which station the injured officer works at.

Maybe perhaps she’s already sent her condolences and “sympathy gifts” to them or has something else in mind

This generation has absolutely no grasp on anything that matters and it’s worrying. Future politics will sure be interesting.

This.

It's not like she has an FBI team to look for each of the victims' families, know where they live and buy flowers for each of them.

This generation's politics don't worry about nothing, the future's will worry about every single irrelevant detail. 

Jesus take the wheel.

In all fairness that policeman was probably protecting the people that were there. She didn't officially announce that she sent the flowers so they have no idea of her real contribution to this. I hate that people constantly look for an opportunity to attack Taylor when she's known to help people without making a big deal out of it.

There shouldn’t even be a need for piecing it together in a way to make it look good or to defend her, there is absolutely nothing wrong with her actions any way you spin it

I never used to care about politics all that much but the way people have been over reacting to every tiny little thing lately has been driving me insane. We should definitely call out specific cops/people who are deserving of it but to get mad at Taylor for sending flowers to someone injured on the job? It’s crazy.

It’s like when Gaga got massive backlash for saying Trump doesn’t represent American values, she obviously had good intent but was lampooned because of what has happened in American history like she was directly responsible for it and trying to push it under the rug. It makes me real scared people are taking this zero tolerance, zero compromise approach to literally any topic instead of actually being decent people

Good on Taylor for supporting someone who put their life on the line to save others’.

internet trolls and media giving them a voice to get clicks. what's new?

[DiscoHeaven23 35,007]

My issue with the flower thing is....the timeliness of it.

 

She's got an album coming out next month. 

 

Where were the flowers for other events that occurred that took place during times when you didn't have an album coming out?
