"19 Kids and Counting" stars recently responded to the controversial shooting that took place in Orlando, Florida recently.

According to Design N Trend, a 22-year-old gunman entered Pulse club - an LGBTQ club - at around 2 a.m. on Sunday morning and went on a shooting spree.

The Hollywood Gossip reported the that shooter Omar Marteen is against the gays and the gay community and he got even angrier over gay men when he saw two kissing each other somewhere in Miami.

Even though the attack was primarily about the LGBTQ community, Marteen reportedly contacted police officials to confirm that his deed was part of his involvement with the ISIS.

Following the shooting, Jessa Duggar-Seewald and her husband Ben expressed their support for the families of at least 50 people who died after the attack.

"Let it be said again. Through tears. Followers of Jesus lay down their lives to save others, not to slaughter," Ben quoted a Calvinist Baptist preacher named John Piper.

His wife Duggar quoted Albert Mohler and wrote, "This is when we show that Christians mourns with those who mourn. May the Gospel of Jesus Christ be as evident as the only power greater than a broken heart."

Unfortunately, the Seewalds' decision to quote two different preachers did not sit well with their critics who noted that they are not even supporting the LGBTQ community in the first place.

One fan wrote, "Quoting a gay-hating preacher before the bodies are cold. What an ignoramus."

Another fan wrote, "You preach this Ben, yet the whole family hates LGBT community. If you could practice what you preach.'

Meanwhile, another fan noted that most critics of the Duggars always poke fun on everything that they do.

One fan claimed that the Seewalds just wanted to be one with the rest of the world in mourning the death of at least 50 human beings.
