NASHVILLE — Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee called Tuesday for state lawmakers to pass a law aimed at preventing guns from getting in the hands of people who are a danger to themselves or others.

The Republican governor also said he will sign a new executive order later Tuesday aimed at strengthening background checks on firearm purchases.

The first question should be "what is your preferred pronoun", if it says he/she non-binary, a red flag goes up.

[No name given]

Yeah.

[ealgeone]

Someone should remind the gubner we have a law against murder.

Laws mean nothing to people intent on harming others unfortunately.

[Huskrrrr]

Riiiight.

[No name given]

Exactly!

Trans Killer/Killers:?

So, for how many years have Trans Killers been killing innocent Amerians, w/o any full public disclosure on those Trans Killers via our media/fbi ??

[ealgeone]

Waiting on some lawyer to sue the bank for firing him causing him to commit murder. That’s the screwed up world we’re in today.

If one is inclined to state “their” preferred pronouns, then “they” are fidiots. Simply list “dumbass/moron”.

“Today we begin to disarm the CRIMINAL and the CARELESS and the INSANE. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.”-— Lyndon Johnson signing the 1968 gun control act into law.

Today the CRIMINAL gets his felonies plea bargained down to misdemeanors and can still LEGALLY buy guns.

The CARELESS still injure themselves and others because gun safety classes have been removed from schools.

The INSANE and mentally ill, today who would have been locked up in the 1950s, are TODAY declared SANE, released on the streets and can now legally buy guns to shoot up schools and churches.

Most of the mass shooters in the last forty years would have been in an insane asylum if the hospitals had not been shut down in the 1970s. It was the brainchild of California Gov Edmund Brown in the 1960s..
Yes, he was a democrat.

Did these shooters in Tennessee and Kentucky do worse than the Edmond Post office shooter who killed 14 using two old US Army 1911 pistols with 7 round magazines?

[DeWalt]

How would anything he’s proposing have stopped this? Wouldn’t have.

[dfwgator]

Why Republicans always lose.

[wardaddy]

Every Republican elected to state wide office is a damn co-opted pussy

Always have been since Baker

Lee should be screaming for them to release the trannys manifesto

Instead he’s wobbly

What a putz

[MileHi]

he will sign a new executive order later Tuesday aimed at strengthening background checks on firearm purchases

Strengthen how? And how would this have prevented what happened, exactly?

[usconservative]

Tennessee is OFF my list until the fine people of that wonderful state throw that DUMBASS PANDERER out of office!

[jacknhoo]

Goodbye Governor Lee.

[BenLurkin]

Seriously, anyone who wants to have a sex change operation is already a threat to themselves. It’s not difficult to see that persson may become a risk to others

[cowboyusa]

If there was such a Red Flag law, there would have to be jail time for false reports. No bs reasons.

[Nextrush]

I have always considered Governor Lee a RINO moderate who puts the Chamber of Commerce first. No surprise here.
