Nashville Flower Shop Refuses Service to GOP Over Shooting at Christian School

A flower shop in Nashville refused to serve a fundraiser for the Republican National Committee, claiming the GOP is responsible for the recent shooting at a Christian school in the city.

The FLWR Shop published their letter to the RNC on Instagram, explaining why they denied service to the GOP fundraising event, as reported by Fox News.

“We immediately declined this ‘opportunity,’ and we want to take this moment to publicly clarify our stance,” the FLWR Shop wrote in its letter.

The shop owners stated that the blood of the three children lost in the Nashville shooting is on the GOP’s money and declared that they would not be accepting any money from them. They also urged others to decline money or jobs from the Republican party until gun laws are changed.

The FLWR Shop claimed that they do not discriminate against conservatives and respect their views and business. However, they could not ignore the RNC’s role in creating tragedies like the recent shooting at the Christian school.

A transgender shooter murdered six individuals, including three children, in the Covenant School in Nashville on March 27.

Following the shooting, Democrats in the Tennessee State House disrupted the chamber in a gun reform demonstration, which some have labeled an insurrection. The House expelled two of the members, who were later reinstated, according to the Free Beacon.

An appeals court in Colorado ruled in January that Masterpiece Cakeshop owner Jack Phillips broke the law by refusing to make a birthday cake celebrating a gender transition. Phillips won a case before the Supreme Court in 2018 after refusing to make a custom wedding cake for a gay couple, CBS News reported.
