Gun control advocate Bette Midler sent out a tweet to her more than two million followers to “come armed” and protest a National Rifle Association conference in Texas the weekend following the mass shooting in Uvalde.

The 76-year-old actress’s tweet comes after an 18-year-old went to an elementary school and opened fire, killing 19 children and two teachers before he was stopped. Midler’s Twitter feed is filled with one post after another blaming Republicans and slamming gun owners.
