Obama and Hillary both refusing to say “Christians” in tweets about Easter attack – Twitter Explodes

At least 207 people have been killed and more than 450 injured in Sri Lanka after suicide bombers from a religious extremist group struck churches and hotels in multiple cities on Sunday morning.

Three Catholic churches were targeted while their Easter services were underway, and three five-star hotels were attacked in and around the country’s capital, Colombo. It is the worst violence the country since the end of a brutal 26-year civil war a decade ago, and the largest targeted attack on Christians in South Asia in memory — let alone on one of the faith’s holiest days.

This terrorist attack is horrifying, but what is even more horrifying is the fact that one of the most important members in the Democratic party refused to call the people who suffered during the attacks Christians!

Instead, the two decided to call the recent violence an attack on “Easter Worshippers”.

On this holy weekend for many faiths, we must stand united against hatred and violence. I'm praying for everyone affected by today's horrific attacks on Easter worshippers and travelers in Sri Lanka.

"Easter worshippers"
If ONLY there was ONE word that we can use instead of that. I think it starts with a C

Just like you were never able to say "ISLAM" after the Pulse shooting, you can't say "CHRISTIANS" after 200 of them lay dead. Easter worshippers? Girl bye.

Easter worshippers … you mean Christians. Repeat after me, Hillary.

Christians.

"Easter worshippers"????

How sad it is to be in a time where Christians are targeted and attacked and "leaders" refrain to bring appropriate awareness to the tragedy bc it has no place in their agenda.

Is it really that hard to use the word “Christians”? I’m so confused.

— Elu Thingol 🧝🏻‍♀️🌷 (@Strangeland_Elf) April 21, 2019

Apparently "Christian" is "offensive" or not "politically correct" enough to say nowadays.

Countless more decide dto attack the former Secretary of state!

And our Former President did the same “mistake”

The attacks on tourists and Easter worshippers in Sri Lanka are an attack on humanity. On a day devoted to love, redemption, and renewal, we pray for the victims and stand with the people of Sri Lanka.

Twitter users furiously responded:

If only there was a single word for “Easter worshippers” 🤔🤔🤔

— Harry Khachatrian (@Harry1T6) April 21, 2019

It’s ok to say Christians

— Jeremy Payne (@jpayne_61) April 21, 2019

If only there was a religion that only worshiped Easter, oh wait, there is. Christianity. So Christians were slaughtered and this "president" called them Easter Worshippers. He also could not call it a terrorist attack on Christianity. Yep, he is soooo presidential. 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮

Michelle and I send our condolences to the people of SRI LANKA. We grieve with you and the CHRISTIAN community. All of us must stand against hatred in all its forms.

Fixed with your own words. Happy Easter.

@BarackObama It’s OK to say Christians…we don’t hold any punches when something happens in a synagogue or a mosque. They were Christians.

Sometimes we have to wonder, who voted for these people?
