Yet another example of the rampant transphobia being propagated by Republicans.
Shit amendment that has done way more harm than will ever do good.
The thing is there is no way to entice this that wouldn’t also make it hard to properly enforce that proposed transphobic policy.
Actually with the direction things are going it’s not only trans people the Administration has to worry about getting easy access to fire arms.
Turns out yes, you can’t have a dictatorship in a nation where the population is well armed
Seems to be working out well for the dictatorship so far.
My prediction, and I say this owning a few firearms myself, is that it will only make the bloody times bloodier. Our insane levels of gun ownership will not change the regime, and it largely won’t protect the vulnerable. It’s not protecting the vulnerable right now.
