    Today a left wing transgender extremist committed a premeditated massacre at a Christian school. She mapped it out and targeted innocent Christian children and murdered them. The very definition of a hate crime. Shame on these mentally ill, rage filled extremists. We have a real problem in America with this type of extremist hate coming from the transgender left.

    we've got to start treating transgenderism as the dangerous mental illness that it is

    could see this coming a mile away

    I’m just glad it wasn’t ANOTHER incel, non college educated, MAGA, white male. I mean, really, we need some diversity and representation in the breadth of mass shooters.

    (in case anyone’s sarcasm meter is broken, my post is just trolling the troller)

    It's all the hotheads, people with anger issues, people full of hate, people with mental issues, and kids too young to make rational decisions buying these guns legally that's the problem. Nobody needs a damn weapon designed to kill in mass. It's ridiculous to act like they do. Fortifying schools and wasting taxpayer dollars is a reaction, not proactively addressing the problem. Arming up is not a solution to the problem. It's smarter getting those weapons off the streets and pouring money into mental healthcare for the sick, and the violent people with anger issues who need help.

    To make things worse, you have Republicans allowing 18 year olds to buy these guns. The frontal lobes, home to key components of the neural circuitry underlying “executive functions” such as planning, working memory, and impulse control, are among the last areas of the brain to mature. The prefrontal cortex isn't even fully developed until at least the mid twenties or later. Who in their right mind is OK with these kids buying guns legally? They don't even have developed critical thinking skills or full control of their emotions.

    It's almost never a MAGA white male. Literally almost never. The vast majority of "gun violence" is committed by groups that overwhelmingly support Democrats.

    When a hate-filled transgender woman shoots up a Christian school in a hate crime, it's beyond tasteless to point the finger at Republican men. And it's the height of idiocy to recommend a policy response of disarming law-abiding citizens. We've got to treat mental illness.

    Hey gun nuts. Say we get up to ten mass shootings per day or fifty is their any level at which your attachment to the Second Amendment as defined by your right wing S Ct would allow a ban on assault weapons and handguns which are only used to hunt humans and kill them?

    never ever ever a white male. Ever. Like almost never. Except it’s almost always, but that’s close to never ever.

    And people don’t kill people. Bullets kill people.

    what we need is to arm all the good people, so they can be brave, stand and fight, and shoot up all the transgender mass shooters.

    (again, trolling the troller)

    Governments kill far more people than citizens do. The founding fathers wanted the populace to be armed to protect themselves from a tyrannical government. It's the ultimate check on government power. I laugh at how gullible people are to listen to government officials telling them they should disarm. These people simply have never learned any history lessons. Do you even question why the government wants you to disarm? Or is this like a COVID or Ukraine thing where you just blindly follow?

    All it took was a trans. Not that kids being shot dead is unacceptable, but when it's a trans, they come fast.

    https://www.nraila.org/what-is-the-...elt that,defend themselves and their property.
    The Founding Fathers felt that citizens should be able to protect themselves against the government and any other threat to their wellbeing or personal freedom. The Second Amendment granted citizens that right — giving them the ability to defend themselves and their property.
    ROFLMAO.. This is the interpretation from the NRA.. No where the correct reason.


    This is the correct reason
    https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/amdt2-2/ALDE_00013262/
    "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." This is the 2nd amendment... This was put into place do to the threat of King George III... From Britain.. Man you guys can turn some crap around...

    https://constitution.findlaw.com/amendment2.html#:~:text=Many historians agree that the,keep weapons for self-defense.
    Many historians agree that the primary reason for passing the Second Amendment was to prevent the need for the United States to have a professional standing army. At the time it was passed, it seems it was not intended to grant a right for private individuals to keep weapons for self-defense.

    You can ask.

    Let me ask a question as well: Could the denial of a person's basic existence by their Christian upbringing and school cause so much mental anguish and hatred that they act out against the school years later? Although the sample size for scientific studies may be too small to draw any conclusions, should we be prohibited from asking such questions? In my opinion, we should not, but it's essential to avoid silly or rash questions based on assumptions. My example of my question is insensitive and too hasty at this moment, but it may become somehwhat relevant in the future.

    But, all of that is a sideshow. America doesn't have a unique issue with high levels of testosterone, transitioning, being transgender, mental illness, or anything of that sort. What is unique to America is its gun culture and the easy access to guns.
