We Don’t Need Gun Control, We Need To Classify Gender Dysphoria As A Mental Illness Again
The Federalist ^ | 8/28/2025 | Jordan Boyd

Posted on 08/28/2025 10:42:48 AM PDT by whyilovetexas111

When a tragedy like the one at Annunciation Catholic School on August 27 unfolds, the knee-jerk reaction from Democrats and their allies in the corporate media is to demand more gun grabs and recruit Republicans to pass red flag laws.

There is a solution, however, that wouldn’t require any further encroachment on law-abiding Americans’ Second Amendment rights. In fact, the answer lies in the very paperwork and background checks that leftists often claim aren’t enough of an obstacle to guns.

But it’s not, by default, a mental illness... it is depravity lived out without fear of the culture calling it out as the depravity it is. And being further emboldened, these reprobate and given-to-evil people then just do more and more evil as a means of expressing their depravity.

Who sold him the gun? THAT is a good question. My former FFL (now retired) would NOT sell a gun to someone who identified as binary. Period.

From school mass shootings of kids in classrooms, to ghetto mass shootings and drive bys, the left did something to our youth and we need to find out what, and reverse whatever the left did.

There were almost no mass killings (except by organized crime) before the 1970s when the mental hospitals were closed down and the crazies dumped on the streets. Mass murders then took off like a rocket.
I can remember three mass killings before the 1970s.
Howard Unruh(considered the first mass shooter) with a luger in 1949.
Richard Speck killed 8 student nurses in 1966 with a knife.
Charles Whitman with a Remington bolt action hunting rifle at the Texas Tower in 1966.

He had several guns in his video. He only took three of them to the church. One of his magazines had “for the children” written on it.

Besides considering himself transgender, I wonder if he was on any SSRIs. Docs hand those out like candy, with little follow up or real therapy.

His family had to have known he was troubled. He was suicidal for years.

Oh BS. They just make stuff up so insurance can be billed. A psycho is a psycho. All that fancy labelling is pseudoscience.

“Trans” = mentally ill (and not just a little bit)

Pass red flag laws and the left will start squealing “DISCRIMINATION!” and “HOMOPHOBIA!” the moment some fruitcake in a dress gets his/her/its guns seized or gun purchase denied because he/she/it is a fruitcake in a dress.

Anyone who claims to be the opposite of their true gender should automatically fail a background check. So-called “transgenderism” is a 100% accurate indicator of deeper and broader mental issues.

We need to get rid of the concept of "gun free zones".

If even 20% of the adults in any location were carrying, open or concealed, people would not try to shoot places up.

Something that changed in America was schools and curriculum, the school atmosphere of values and beliefs and social interaction, even male and female roles coming down from the unionized and nationalized school teachers and leadership, even career counseling changed, and TV and children’s shows were part of this new deep penetration of the children’s minds.

Penetrating and altering the child’s minds and natural instincts, and overcoming their parent’s teachings, while erasing the echoes of values and instincts from our society’s past wisdom and culture, became a focus of the establishments that consumed so much of our child’s lives and upbringing and forming of them.

The left decided to get into the minds of America’s youth and treat it like a laboratory for reshaping of American life and even of Western Civilization, it has created a lot of badly formed, permanently confused people, with nothing to hold onto inside themselves or to reach out to.

Nihilism reached into America’s population.

Gun free zones make it safe for the criminal but a sitting target for the law abiding. More Guns, Less Crime by John Lott.
