    House lawmakers advance $3 million grant program to help schools buy guns for teachers
    Now the state is not only advocating/allowing guns onto schools, they are now going to buy them for the teachers !!!!

    Yeah, thats what we need, underpaid teachers, in overcrowded schools now carrying guns in those classrooms, without requiring any training. This is beyond a recipe for disaster. They are giving $3 million $$$ to the program, while they are cutting budgets for the actual education in those schools. They are literally taking from the actual education, to ARM UNDERPAID TEACHERS in underfunded schools

    Folks, you cannot make this crap up with a team of writers. This is some X-Files level ridiculousness………..the state just took away funding from public schools, and moved it to allow people to send their kids to private schools, and surprise surprise, 68% of the money they took went to kids already in private school.

    Our country is doomed, and the MAGA’s are destroying this country.

    I guess some on the left prefer successful school shootings so they can use dead children as a reason to ban guns. For years, I heard gun banners claim that allowing SHALL ISSUE permits for concealed carry will cause massive shootings in the streets. DID NOT HAPPEN yet the gun banners complained every time a state allowed this. Then we got the same complaints when state after state allowed "constitutional carry". the cries of wolf over and over and over. This is the same thing here.

    Such a disturbing world they envision

    Force children to have their rapist baby
    Ban books and school lunch programs
    Arm teachers that they say are indoctrinating children
    Protect police that don’t protect children

    1) a bit hysterical though some of the anti abortion extremists do support that but not most of the GOP
    2) no one is banning books anymore than they are banning alcohol or guns
    3) these school systems don't tend to have woke teachers
    4) that makes no sense

    Yeah they're going to be closing their eyes and limp wristing their 44 magnums all over the place omg.

    You know when you can tell Democrats have no point? They have to start making **** up.

    Those who want to carry firearms will be required to go through a permit process that includes one-time, in-person legal training that covers qualified immunity, emergency medical training and communication training, as well as regular firearm training and "live scenario" training

    Yeah, it's Republicans destroying the country.

    It's not the people that brought in 10 million illegal aliens and have legalized criminality in their **** hole, 3rd world cities.

    It's hard to figure the charade because it's people getting guns that really bothers them, the misrepresentation that there is no training is a facade to hide the real reason

    They're incapable of defending themselves, so they hate when other people can.

    One minute the left loves teachers and think those teachers know what's best for kids, the next minute they can't be trusted.

    they also dishonestly claim that preventing tax dollars supplying minors with crap like that is the same as banning books. adults and kids alike can go to the book shop or amazon and buy whatever they like. that the school board won't provide some books is not a ban

    ANY use of a firearm that saves lives is anathema to those who want to ban them

    When entire states start passing these bills then you can no longer say it’s just the extremist wing of your party
    One of the most colorful examples of this being false is “And Tango Makes Three” — can you tell anyone why it is banned in so many places if it’s not happening?
    Ah yes, the evil “woke” — applied to anything a conservative doesn’t like.
    Do cops have a constitutional duty to protect and serve or is it a slogan?

    under Supreme Court rulings, police do not have a duty to protect individual citizens UNLESS the police themselves put that citizen in a heightened state of danger.

    How many states do you think are going to ban abortion in the case of a child being raped?

    1 is too many
    That women are having to flee states in this nation to abort non-viable fetuses and rapists have more bodily autonomy than those they rape because of the christofascists is on your party. And your party alone.

    well here is the deal-how many times will a woman need to have an abortion due to rape, incest or medical necessity? and they can get an abortion in dozens of states. Versus the victim disarmament fascists in your party that want to ban honest people from owning firearms-far less practical to go out of the state in order to say practice target shooting. And UNLIKE ABORTION, it is an enumerated constitutional right.

    you think rapists in prison have "bodily autonomy"
