He was also the Republican mayor of Maury County, Tennessee, from 2018 to 2022.
The congressional district that Ogles has represented since 2023 falls within the boundaries of The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee. One furious Twitter user said: 'Andy Ogles, a Republican who represents the district where the Covenant School is located in Nashville. However, he has since removed the post from his Facebook page, after being bombarded by criticism over the image 'Thank you to the brave first responders who have provided support throughout this tragedy.' I am closely monitoring the situation and working with local officials. 'As a father of three, I am utterly heartbroken by this senseless act of violence. We are sending out thoughts and prayers to the families of those lost. He wrote on Twitter: 'My family and I are devastated by the tragedy that took place at The Covenant School in Nashville this morning. However, he has since removed the post from his Facebook page, after being bombarded by criticism over the image.Īt the time he posted with the quote: 'The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good.'īut the image has been reposted by many online after Rep Ogles sent his 'thoughts and prayers' to the victims of the mass shooting today.
Ogles then refused to answer and more questions over the use of the guns, instead leaving his response as sone supportive of the Second Amendment. He was asked by Sky if he regretted the image, and quicky shot back: 'Why would I regret taking a family photo with my family and exercising my constitutional rights.'
