Tennessee gender reveal party prompts 2 school lockdowns: ‘Active shooter
NY Post ^ | 09/02/2021 | Emma Colton, Fox News

A gender reveal party triggered at least two Tennessee schools to lock down after an expecting father shot off his gun in celebration.

“Rumors of an active shooter at local school are incorrect,” the Murfreesboro Police Department posted on Twitter.

The incident unfolded Wednesday afternoon in Rutherford County when a resident of the area heard gunshots and someone scream. The person called 911, and due to the gunshots being so close to multiple schools, officials put them on lockdown.

The lockdown orders at Oakland High and Middle schools were both quickly lifted, however, after police discovered the gunshots were from a jubilant father finding out he and the child’s mother are having a boy.

These “gender reveals” are a real thing among a certain generation and many go way over the top. Some Darwin nominees have come from the worst disasters.

Is gender reveal anything like what they use to call post office?

How dare they presume what gender the baby will want to identify as!

Laz went binary yellow at his last gender reveal.

Murphreesboro has a sizeable muslim community. Typically during weddings or other such joyous occasions, particularly in Pakistan it’s customary for the menfolk to shoot their guns in the air, oblivious to the fact that what hours up must come down. Sometimes they learn this concept the hard way, earning themselves Darwin Awards

Exactly. At my baby shower...we didn’t reveal. So we got a lot of “mint” colored jumpers if I can remember.

This is all about the “out-do” attitude of the current generation. Almost a “pageant mom” mentality, IMO.

He was announcing the baby will be a Son Of A Gun.

Oh, this is not the same as a baby shower. This is just a display of narcissism in which the expectant parents invite their friends and relatives to learn whether the baby is a boy or girl. Stupid!

"At least the guy didn’t start a 20,000 acre wildfire."

I don't recall anything happening legal-wise to those people either... Could be wrong though.

How transphobic.

I thought "gender reveal" was to be done by the child or teenager himself/herself when "they" are ready. Parents aren't supposed to have a say anymore.

So I guess "genital reveal" is okay now, even though it has no effect on what "gender" your child eventually becomes?

Just for the record, I would never display my child's sex organs to anyone, especially to a bunch of voyeurs looking at pictures of them in my wife's womb.

What is our society coming to?
