The United States experienced yet another tragic school shooting on Friday morning, after someone opened fire at Santa Fe High School in Santa Fe, Texas, reportedly killing at least eight people.

But a second furor broke out over President Trump's initial response. Many, including survivors of the school shooting in Parkland, Florida, are calling him out for his comments.

Shortly after 11 a.m. ET, Trump tweeted, "School shooting in Texas. Early reports not looking good. God bless all!"

Parkland school shooting survivors Cameron Kasky and Jaclyn Corin slammed the president for what they considered a greatly insensitive and tone-deaf statement.

Treating it like a sports game you sick bastard. https://t.co/kY3a61x4aN — Cameron Kasky (@cameron_kasky) May 18, 2018

Donald Trump does not care about school shootings.



Donald Trump does nothing to stop school shootings.



Don’t talk to me about the ‘stop school violence act,’ because that does nothing to stop school shootings.



Donald Trump does not care about you or your kids getting shot. — Cameron Kasky (@cameron_kasky) May 18, 2018

Our children are being MURDERED and you’re treating this like a game. This is the 22nd school shooting just this year. DO SOMETHING. https://t.co/Lc1IWYGssE — Jaclyn Corin (@JaclynCorin) May 18, 2018

Kasky and Corin were joined by other Parkland survivors, including David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez, who sent condolences to the Santa Fe High School victims and shared more feelings based on their experiences surrounding the Parkland shooting.

Adding to the emotions, Parkland students were watching events unfold in Texas on the final day of class of their tumultuous school year.

At least 8 students have been shot and killed at Santa Fe High School.



Prepare to watch the NRA boast about getting higher donations.



Prepare to see students rise up and be called ‘civil terrorists’ and crisis actors.



Prepare for the right-wing media to attack the survivors. — Cameron Kasky (@cameron_kasky) May 18, 2018

Get ready for two weeks of media coverage of politicians acting like they give a shit when in reality they just want to boost their approval ratings before midterms. — David Hogg (@davidhogg111) May 18, 2018

My heart is so heavy for the students of Santa Fe High School. It’s an all too familiar feeling no one should have to experience. I am so sorry this epidemic touched your town - Parkland will stand with you now and forever. pic.twitter.com/ckVPxYi6qz — Jaclyn Corin (@JaclynCorin) May 18, 2018

Santa Fe High, you didn’t deserve this. You deserve peace all your lives, not just after a tombstone saying that is put over you.

Hoping things get better. Hoping things can change. Don’t tell me that there isn’t a shooting problem in this country. The perpetuating gun violence we face is ridiculous. https://t.co/dHeXH5Fo9B — Alex Wind (@al3xw1nd) May 18, 2018

Fred Guttenberg, whose daughter, Jamie, was killed in the Parkland shooting, also weighed in, saying Friday's shooting was his fear confirmed.

This has been my fear since February 14th, that another mass casualty shooting would happen before we did anything. Now, we have 8 more children dead and our leadership in Washington has done nothing. We do not need thoughts and prayers, we need action and we need it now. — Fred Guttenberg (@fred_guttenberg) May 18, 2018

Speaking at a prison reform panel at the White House, both Vice President Mike Pence and President Trump made mention of the shootings, which he called a "horrific attack," but neither went beyond the usual "thoughts and prayers" theme.

Trump later tweeted the above video with a text excerpt of his brief words on the shooting.

According to the Houston Chronicle, at least 8 people were killed and 12 injured during the Friday morning shooting. The Chronicle also reports that the alleged shooter is in police custody.

We are assisting @SantaFeISD with a multiple-casualty incident at Santa Fe High School. This is no longer an active shooting situation and the injured are being treated. #hounews pic.twitter.com/m7Wuauk9jk — HCSOTexas (@HCSOTexas) May 18, 2018
