    A lotta hate towards transgender persons, and I can understand that.

    Most of them do not seem to be bad people. One does not become a "troon" until they perpetrate a violent act against strangers in the name of radical trans/Marxist ideology... but there seems to have been a LOT of that lately, including many mass shootings, and that's very concerning.

    As much as I despise censorship, it seems the time has come to shut down specific platforms regularly sharing such ideology and promoting violence. Every single one of these perpetrators was "radicalized" online by others who encouraged them.

    Sad for the families.

    SSRIs, hormones, mental illness and antidepressants seem to be a more common theme then guns. No one is blaming big pharma or the medical community. Hmmmmm

    Dope up a kid until he has no idea what he is, teach him in school he is part of an evil group that should be removed from power or worse. He is going to either live in fascistic world or no world after global warming, add unlimited violent images on the internet and what else is going to happen?

    Default Mass shooters is an illness

    Medicine is where computers were 50 years ago. I always remind the arrogant physicians that the first airplane flew in 1903 and that penicillin wasn't created until 1929. The purists claim rule of law and the realists know it is a military industrial complex. As my dad used to say "guns and butter". He died from a nuclear weapons accident.

    Physical hardening of schools should be a national priority, not DEI!

    You mean MSNBC?

    Censorships is very dangerous.
    What sites, platforms and outlets do you think should be shut down? How and under what authority? Who makes the final decision?

    The news today said he was fascinated by serial killers. So are millions of others. Does this mean shut down wikipedia because one jackass had mental issues?

    The killer mentioned meeting a youtube guy at SHOT show. Shut down all gun content because of that? Maybe not with a Trump appointee to the Protect Us From Ourselves Committee. But when President Newsome takes office and assigns Tom Sullivan as director of the PUFOC, you'll never see a gun mentioned again.

    More laws and rules are never a good idea. Blocking access to information is a horrible idea and a tenet of authoritarianism.

    Yep.

    This links to a "fast facts" page related to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act from the Office of Special Education Programs, part of the Dept of Education. It is pre-covid so the data is dated but it shows the percentage of children as having an emotional disturbance. This is a very specific term and not applied to many students. Considering the source, you should take this with a grain of salt. I think the numbers are a lot higher and what eddie has to say explains a big part of the problem.

    Hey, Brother. Sorry about the misunderstanding, allow me to clarify.

    I am unfamiliar with the specific statutes pertaining to restrictions on free speech, but there are certainly exceptions for promoting hate speech, terrorism, or promoting mass shootings and targeted assassinations. That is well established.

    The biggest vectors seem to be subreddits and tumblr pages devoted to radical trans activism. Those specific users are just permabanned and their content deplatformed. That's it.

    Further investigation would likely discover they originated from Chinese troll farms.

    Don't forget all the anxiety causing news 'they' flip-out over, need to hate someone for something! All spurred on by Liberal A-H*LES in the media, public schools, court systems and more.

    Like the 2 dead Israeli hostages from Oct. 7 that were discovered in Gaza today. That leaves 50 remaining hostages that are probably going to be added to the total of 1.200 dead. (Insert cricket sound here).

    But the lowlife illegal trucker pulling a U-turn kills 3 and is some kind of Hero, and any pro-Palestinian/anti-Jewish protest draws them like flies on shit. I don't get it.
    Someone had mentioned anti-depressants and over medication being part of the problem. It is and has been for some time.
