The whole situation, as every country outside the U.S. knows, is literal insanity.

Over the past five years, only three mass shooters out of 2840+ were transgender. Firearms are the leading cause of death for children in the US.
The right-wing is using transphobia as a distraction from their weird fetishized obsession with guns.
Don't let their hate-filled rhetoric to go unchecked.
