It’s too early to say exactly how, or even if, the tragedy could have been prevented. Yet Minnesota Democrats already have...

JESSE WATTERS: A suicidal transgender who hates Trump's Christians and Jews shoots up kids at a Catholic school and the media wants to take away your handgun. So how are we supposed to protect ourselves from trans shooters? The media is bad at pattern recognition. We aren't.

We've seen trans shootings in Colorado and in Maryland. They even shot up an ICE facility in Texas. And it...
