As previously noted, Knox County, TN Mayor Glenn Jacobs (WWE Hall of Famer Kane) addressed gun violence in the United States and Sean Waltman issued a response. Jacobs had written the following message on Twitter…

“Every violent death is a tragedy. That said, the mainstream media would have you believe that America is the land of gun violence and mass shootings when, in fact, as @HannahDCox points out, our per capita rates of gun deaths are actually much lower than many other countries.”

Jacobs’ Tweet ended up being “ratioed” with more quote retweets than likes. In addition to Waltman, Mick Foley and Lance Storm were among those that responded to Jacobs. Foley wrote the following…

“Reading this cold, callous tweet from Glenn Jacobs literally hurt my heart.”

Storm wrote the following…

“So you’re saying all of these deaths, including the 19 kids in Uvalde are at an acceptable rate or tragedy, and nothing needs to be done?”
