Nashville School Shooting

When a radicalized transgender terrorist goes on a shooting spree targeting small children, the first thing everyone in America wants to do is find out who is to blame. According to the Left, it’s not
Audrey Hale
, the deranged woman who took the lives of six innocent people; in fact, she’s the real victim here. Rather, it is Republicans and bigoted right-wingers whom the Left holds responsible for provoking this tragedy.

If you were stuck in the CNN/MSNBC echo chamber of leftist propaganda, you might believe this nonsense, too, as the liberal media continue to label commonsense notions “transphobia.” Just weeks before the shooting, the Tennessee legislature voted to ban giving minors puberty blockers and hormone therapy, as well as mutilating their genitals before the age of 18. Here on planet Earth, that should be a no-brainer, but if you just read the news headlines, the story
changes to
“U.S. Republicans target transgender youth healthcare in legislative push.”


NASHVILLE POLICE SHOW OTHER POLICE FORCES HOW IT’S DONE

When Republicans sign legislation to protect our nation’s children from being permanently afflicted at the behest of parents who wish to enforce radical gender ideology on them, they’re portrayed in the most backward and evil light imaginable. But after a transgender terrorist killed a bunch of Christian schoolchildren this Monday, liberal celebrities and politicians alike chose to show solidarity toward the LGBT community and
point the finger
at the political Right.

In the wake of the shooting, Madonna
announced
a trans rights benefit concert in Nashville, which is a bit in poor taste as we don’t see many Muslim rights benefit concerts in the cities shaken by radical Islamic terrorist attacks. Then again, this is the same woman who publicly
voiced
her desire to blow up the Trump White House.

Gov. Katie Hobbs’s (D-AZ) spokeswoman Josselyn Berry took to Twitter to
share
her reaction to the mass shooting in the hours following the attack. Berry posted a GIF from the 1980 movie Gloria, which shows a woman armed with two handguns, and she captioned the image, “Us when we see transphobes.” (Berry
resigned
shortly afterward.)

Additionally, a radical transgender activist group called the Trans Resistance Network released a
statement
following the attack, stating that “hate has consequences” and seemingly attempted to justify the attack due to “anti-trans hate” and the idea that “genocidal” people on the Right seek to eliminate the transgender population. The group went as far as to “remind” the news media to use the “self-identified pronouns” of the woman who just went on a murder spree. Calling Hale a man just because she identifies as one is not inclusion, it is delusion — and
demanding that society just go along with this
despite knowing better is resulting in people with severe mental illness embracing their dysphoria instead of treating it.

A number of transgender activists have been demanding “vengeance” in the wake of the Tennessee legislature’s “gender-affirming care” ban, but even after Monday’s shooting, the Trans Radical Activist Network continues to
promote
a “Day of Vengeance” outside the Supreme Court on Saturday, April 1.

It is clear to most on the Right that transgender people at large are not evil like Hale, but leftist activist groups exploit their mental illness for political gain. If this continues, it seems inevitable that more tragedies are to follow. They say, “The internet is forever,” and we have the receipts of leftists justifying and encouraging this kind of violence. With every tragedy, the idea of blaming Republicans only gets more absurd.
