Breitbart ^ | 23April | Hawkins

Posted on 04/23/2023 9:06:55 AM PDT by qaz123

Gov. Bill Lee (R) called the Tennessee legislature into special session Friday night hoping to secure the red flag gun control he began pushing on April 11, 2023.

Breitbart News reported Lee, once a stalwart for Second Amendment rights, caved to the left in the week’s after a 28-year-old transgender shot and killed six people at a Nashville Christian school.

It would be an absolute pleasure to confront the Governor over this.

Q1….Governor, as tragic as the event was, it is still a murder inside the city of Nashville and the state of Tennessee, why aren’t Nashville PD or the Tenn Bureau of Investigation handling the case?

Q2….Governor, who ceded control of the investigation to the FBI?

Q3….Governor, even if the DOJ or FBI wanted to label the event as a Hate Crime, which they haven’t, they would be running a parallel investigation, rather than running the whole investigation?

Q4….Governor, have you read her manifesto or any of the other documents, papers, journals, etc etc, that were removed and labeled evidence by the FBI, which are now being held from the Tennessee legislature?

Q5….Governor, if you have had access to the paperwork, what gives you the right, as Governor, to withhold that information from the legislature while at the same time asking us to pass gun control measures?

I can promise you, that he won’t have a legitimate answer for any of those questions.

Back when Tennessee was TENNESSEE, this would be a warning shot by the government boyz against the Tennesseans.

Caved to the left? The Southern Baptist Convention is ‘the left’?

I agree that anyone identifying as LBGTQ garbage or transgender should be denied the right to own a firearm due to their mental illness.

If I were the Tenn Senate and House leadership, press conference in the state Capitol steps.

“Governor, you called us into session, you want to restrict rights guaranteed to Tenn citizens, rights clearly demonstrated the Tenn Volunteer(a man holding a rifle), and you want us to do that without having read her manifesto or any of the other documents recovered.”

“Tenn Republicans are going to take a Hard Pass on this one until we have all the facts. Thank you. Have a nice day. God Bless the state of Tennessee and God Bless the United States.”

Drop the mic and walk away.

“Red Flag” confiscation without full due process is blatantly unConstitutional. Period, end of story.

The Left sends its sickos out to do its wet work, to then scream “gun control”, and the right falls for it.....every time.
Where’s the manifesto? Let’s see it.

Seems like the country could better use evil people control.

Politicians need to be changed out as frequently as tampons, regardless of brand name.

Well, these days, the SBC is better described not necessarily as “left”, but more like bipolar and schizo and venal, with a generous dollop of white racial guilt.

Trust me on this...

The Legislature should demand the release of the tranifesto before convening.

Well, I think a lot of Baptists would be surprised to know that the SBC supports Lee’s ‘red flag’ efforts...unscriptural AND unconstitutional.

There’s no solution to insanity. However, the U.S. has a system designed to stop insane people from buying firearms. It’s the National Firearms Act.

The NFA failed to prevent the insane Nashville shooter from buying its firearms because the NFA only places people onto the NICS “No Sale” database who have been adjudicated insane and committed to a mental institution. The system relies on professional psychiatrists in charge of determining who is insane. The Nashville shooter claimed to be a transgender.

The Nashville shooter received its “stay out of the NICS database” card from the governing American Psychiatric Association. The APA does not recognize transgenderism as a form of insanity. The shooter was being treated as an outpatient.

Revise the National Firearms Act to specify that mental health professionals must place transgenders into the NICS “No Sale” database.
