“We don’t discriminate, in this community, against anyone.” Those are the words of a woman who is defending Nazis, but who actively fought against a Pride parade.

BREAKING: Controversial Franklin mayoral candidate Gabrielle @HansonforMayor refuses to denounce “actual literal Nazis” who came to forum to “protect” her and blames her colleagues for the division in the community. “You reap what you sow.” 1/
If a proposed bill sponsored by Gino Bulso @GinoBulso during the special session had passed, the same neo-Nazis that invaded City Hall might have also legally show up at a Friday night WCS Friday night football game openly armed and there'd be nothing WCS could do about it.
Nothing about this exchange is normal. Even when the threat is a “hoax”, the trauma is very real. Our children deserve better.

I hope my GOP colleagues never have to do what I’m currently doing and that is standing outside your kids school with hundreds of cops and watch a tactical unit assemble
Anyone recognize this event? No public media about it, neither the space nor anyone in it looks to be from Franklin, program in the woman's hand suspiciously blurred. Given that @HansonforMayor has shown a tenuous relationship with the truth- is this another fake pic?
“How in hell did we end up at a point in Tennessee, and America, at which we bicker about the use of ballistic glass on school doors and letting armed men and women roam the grounds of elementary schools?”

Fascinating to watch TN Republicans & @GovBillLee try to walk a tightrope of trying to sell that their special session was a success and made us safer while also letting the TFA tell their folks nothing happened. Spoiler: the TFA is right.

Today in the Tennessee House (as well as the last week) is a pretty good argument for needing more women in politics! #JustSayin

Yes, pretty sure this was exact bill the TN legislature was trying to slam through this week. If approved it would enable someone just like this to show up and volunteer with a weapon at a school near you.. If not for all the moms and the media this week, it might have passed!

HB 7071 Changes the definition of a mass shooting to be 4 people in a public place, excluding gang shootings, residences, and others. The federal government says 3 people = mass shooting. This will skew the numbers to make it seem like there are less mass shootings in Tennessee…

I now have 37 followers. It’s a movement.
Franklin alderman and mayoral hopeful @HansonforMayor is trying to smear Mayor Ken Moore because he voted to let a pride group hold a festival at a park, rather than deny them that right and expose the city to litigation. Really classy stuff 👌
My takeaway from spending the day at the TN capitol: to most GOP lawmakers, facts about gun deaths don’t matter. Stories about traumatized or dead kids don’t matter. What matters is that they don’t want to get primaried and …

65K Followers 186 Following Advocate, Author, Attorney, Speaker. Part of the Army that took down Larry Nassar. // Speaking: @UTAspeakers | Media: [email protected]Y'all! Last night I had a launch party and guess who showed up? Ms Boyd, my high school journalism teacher whose signature I forged back in 1992! She doesn't hold it against me! Here, w/ sisters @marykatebrown and @AmyBWesterman.
P.S. I posted this on Facebook, and Ms. Vickie Boyd, my former journalism teacher, pointed out that I had forged her signature.
Helpful. “We’re all sinners.” “I’m just like John Wayne Gacy.” “You’re Hitler too.” Who platformed Mark Driscoll? We all did.” Universalizing the emotional stuntednedness of abusers is a moral evasion. Easy on the “we.” Go granular or go home. Thank you, Hannah Arendt.
Hannah Arendt defines the banality of evil as the "simple resistance ever to imagine what another person is experiencing."
To the Republicans who keep saying arming teachers is permissive: cut the crap. It's an insult to everyone's intelligence. The extremism on guns comes incrementally. It's not just this bill today, we're mad about the next 5 bills you're going to pass to arm more teachers.
I've spent years fighting against arming teachers in schools. To see a bunch of folks eating Chick Fil A while making it a state law today was borh surreal and disgusting. It was a real kick in the gut, and I am so sorry I failed my kids and their teachers...
If this is the play, I will have fun pulling all of the past sound bites from leadership about the need to "respect the committee process."
I am hustling hard to meet a big fundraising deadline and I need your support. I'm working towards $50,000 by the end of the month to show that I mean business. I'd appreciate whatever you can give. Your help will launch us into this race. Together, we can flip District 5!
@NC5PhilWilliams @SenJohnson I’m old enough to remember @SenJohnson lying about never supporting Universal Vouchers, then denying he’d ever said it and pouting about being challenged on his statements. thenewstn.com/spring_hill/wc…
TN GOP to teachers: Y’all are union thugs, glorified babysitters, and groomers—but hey, here’s a gun to carry in class. BTW, you’re the only one liable.

The Tennessee GOP has been in charge of public education in TN for the last 15 years. So if our public schools are failing, wouldn’t it be their fault? But sure, let’s keep trying to fund these scam vouchers.
TN government has spent years under paying teachers, mandating curriculum and education materials. Let’s not pretend all of the sudden the government wants to listen to teachers while ignoring all of that.
Augment. Amplify. Shout it from the rooftops. This person is a pox on our democracy. Pray for us in Tennessee. 🙏🙏🙏
Congrats to Brentwood’s own @GinoBulso & the @tnhousegop on making it into @Newsweek! 🤦🏻♂️ newsweek.com/tennessee-repu…
TN lawmakers are playing a game that says let’s arm the good guys, the bad guys and everyone in between and see if everyone shooting at everyone will stop the shooting.
Just so everyone is clear. What happened yesterday is exactly why I am running for Congress. Constituent representation is in the trash in TN. 🧵
Fists and feet kill more people than guns. That’s a new one!
@mandersonville @Hammerdownhanna @Cstu05 @EditrixLane Lots of things can kill a person. Fists and feet lead guns by far, and most everyone has them.
How could someone watch the coordination, skill & training of these officers reacting to a shooter & think it could be safely recreated by a school's Spanish teacher or janitor after "successfully completed forty hours of basic training in school policing" youtube.com/watch?v=Zpx-mj…
What 2A extremists actually believe: -Almost everyone should be armed at all times -You should prepare for and obsess over the moment when you finally get to shoot at people -If you’re lucky enough to kill people, you’re a hero (Rittenhouse)
I have spent my entire adult life volunteering in public schools. And I haven’t met one teacher who wanted to carry a gun into his/her workplace.
