Showing sympathy isn't bad, but a guy who's a 2A supporter, and takes 2A lobby money shaking the hand of a guy who introduces himself as the father of a girl who died in a shooting would get plastered by the left all over the internet as hypocrisy and all the virtue signalers on the internet would be typing at only half speed because their other hand would be busy making their keyboard all sticky with outrage.

It was a no-win situation created by a guy who specifically showed up there with the express intent of trying to ruin the guy's job interview/career, and a media that was going to make a story out of the photo regardless of if the hand was shook or not.

Best to just not play the game.

You are (presumably) smart enough to understand this, but you apparently find it too tempting to read that and instead come to the conclusion that I said "showing sympathy is seen as bad by the right". Because who cares about rationality and logic.
