Some leading Presidential candidates have responded via Twitter to the [shooting](http://time.com/4128390/planned-parenthood-shooting-colorado-springs/?xid=homepage) at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado, which killed three people and injured nine.

“Today and every day, we #StandWithPP,” Hillary Clinton tweeted Friday afternoon. Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley also used the hashtag in their tweets supporting Planned Parenthood.

As of early Saturday, the only GOP Presidential candidate who had responded publicly to the attack on Twitter was Texas Senator Ted Cruz. “Praying for the loved ones of those killed, those injured & first responders who bravely got the situation under control in Colorado Springs,” he wrote.

President Obama also [issued a statement](http://time.com/4128413/obama-planned-parenthood-shooting/) about the shooting, advocating for stricter gun laws.

## Transcript

I saw a man crawling to the front door. And I saw the glass shatter. And he crawled into the entryway. And then I saw this other fellow come behind him and shoot down and up, and walk into the entryway. I just kind of lost it there. I Tried to get out of my car and run and I thought about that and said, no. I got back into the car, started it, put it in reverse, started backing out and then he was in front of me. And he was aiming at me. And I just hit the gas and he started shooting and I was looking at his face. I think I had 10 seconds 5 to 10 seconds to look at him, to try to remember who he was and why was doing that or whatever.

Then the shots came through the glass. Then I started bleeding. As I was looking at him a saw blood. I didn't know if I was coming for my neck or my lip or what. Those bullet holes went right through my windshield, then the blood And four seconds later I'm turning. And I think I saw his vehicle, which a dark looking SUV with the front door open, driver's side. And then I just started getting away. And I heard him shooting some more at me. And then I made it to King Supers. It was just a weird, I never experienced [ UNKNOWN ] like that before. And at the time I wasn't scared, I was more angry. That's what's bothering me the most is what the other people went through.

It's just, I can't imagine. It was a lot of women in there, very innocent people in there. I just felt helpless, that's all. I feel helpless. [ BLANK_AUDIO ] That's why I was angry I guess. [ BLANK_AUDIO ] It's not right. [ BLANK_AUDIO ] [ NOISE ]
