In session reacting to school shooting, Tennessee GOP lawmaker orders removal of public from hearing
The second day of Tennessee’s special legislative session has been filled with emotional and chaotic scenes in which Republican lawmakers largely ignored calls to address gun control.
Families close to a Nashville fatal school shooting broke down in tears Tuesday after a Tennessee Republican leader ordered state troopers to remove them and others from a legislative hearing room while they waited to testify in favor of gun control measures.
The emotional scene was just one of several chaotic moments that erupted during the second day of Tennessee’s special legislative session. Republican Gov. Bill Lee initially called lawmakers back to the Capitol to consider his proposal to keep firearms away from dangerous people.
Thin skinned snowflake right wingers getting triggered again and throwing a tantrum.
66Classic Republicans, can't face the victims of their policies.
43The real cancel culture. What a bunch of authoritarian pussies. Fuck you Tennessee Republicans.
36Cowards.
