New Utah book ban measures to make it easier to banish thier precious bibles.

This is hilarious.

Similar to this other karmic event last week, when a judged blocked the abortion ban in Wyoming based on the fact that Wyoming's constitution has an amendment guaranteeing people the right to govern their own health care, which was introduced in 2012 in response to Obamacare.

Not a teen though?

And if it's revealed she was out to protect the children from drag shows and CRT? What then?

The suspect has been reported to be a teen female-

The Utah parent thanking legislators for making it easier to ban the dastardly bible, responded-

"We believe in the rule of law!"

^^^When the bill author complained the bible ban will make a mockery of his legislation.

Well yeah.... Thats kind of the point isnt it?:lmao:

To borrow a old Wyoming rancher slang-

Saw Lanny Davis - of all people - comment on the possible Trump indictment with Politico.  Since 2008 I've always loathed him (Davis, I mean), and to be clear he is Cohen's lawyer, but he made an argument that's hard to argue with.  Cohen was sentenced to three years for committing a crime that was - without question and demonstrably - on behalf of Trump.  Even if the jurisdiction and/or legal argument is unclear, somebody should prosecute the person actually responsible.  

Will prosecuting Trump lead to his incarceration?  Almost certainly not.  But should he be prosecuted by somebody for that crime?  Certainly, yes.  Saw Maher on Friday night wringing his hands that this will help Trump politically.  Maybe in the primaries, but anyone thinking getting indicted will help in a general election is an idiot.  It will/would undoubtedly hurt him if he gets that far.  We just have to see if Bragg has the balls to go through with it after Trump's fascist threats.

Jon Stuart’s view on indicting Trump:

The shooter from what I gather appears to be a trans masc

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/nashville-christian-school-shooter-appears-former-student-police-chief-rcna76876

Apparently he had a linkdin with he/him pronouns

This may motivate republicans to actually ban and/or more heavily regulate something now—that’d be hormone therapy. 
If a 28 year old can get turned into a mass killer because of this stuff maybe people younger(18-27) shouldn’t have it or no one should.

Nashville school shooter Audrey Hale identified as transgender and had detailed manifesto to attack Christian academy trib.al/LA57peQ

Yes he was a trans guy and I really hope you’re not using that as evidence of him being in a left-wing cult.

But given you’ve defended Kanye(I like Hitler and am a nazi)  West and Andrew(I love raping and sex trafficking) Tate for getting some measure of punishment for being terrible I’m inclined that is the reason.

We Don’t know what the manifesto is actually about yet though.

whether it details a broader political/social animosity to general Christianity or want for a political statement, personal vendetta against the school no one could honestly declare at this point,

Wouldn’t it be nice if the shooter didn’t have easy access to firearms regardless of how how the shooter identified?

Yeah but that may infringe upon white cis-het people’s power fantasies.

Best we could do is use this tragedy to beat up on all trans people.

It's America, you communist heathen. The second amendment guarantees you the easy access to a firearm and as many schools as you can reach, before the police shoots you down. Or just before the police shoots you down, if you are black.

That's freedom, god bless America, thought and prayers and so on and so forth.

Just wanted to save you the trouble of watching the news and waiting for legislative action for the next couple of weeks, and decided to provide you with a condensed version of the debate. It feels kinda repetitive. But that's the gun debate in America for you.

Just to point out -- Covenant Presbyterian Church in Nashville, which founded this school, is a member of the denomination called the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). This is a separate and mostly Southern denomination from the Presbyterian Church in the USA (PCUSA) which is the largest Presbyterian denomination. The PCA is much more conservative both theologically and socially. It does not ordain women as ministers (which the PCUSA has done since 1956) and would not have GLBTQ affirming policies, while the PCUSA does at the national level (local congregations can of course vary in their acceptance.)
