The days after the shooting at a Nashville Christian school that killed six people have been marked by anti-transgender rhetoric and disinformation

People march around the Nebraska state Capitol during a Transgender Day of Visibility rally, Friday, March 31, 2023, in Lincoln, Neb. Anti-transgender rhetoric and disinformation in the days following the shooting at a Nashville Christian school that killed six people have heightened the fears of a community already on edge amid a historic push for more restrictions on trans people's rights this year.

Police have said Hale was under a doctor’s care for an undisclosed emotional disorder and was not on the radar of police before the attack. Hale was fatally shot by police at the school Monday. Several hundred bills restricting transgender people's rights have been introduced in statehouses this year, including a resurgence of bathroom bills and bans on gender affirming care for minors. Transgender people have also facedSome of the most stringent measures have been enacted in Tennessee, where the Republican governor has signed into law restrictions on drag show performances and a ban on gender affirming care for minors.

“Anytime there’s a spike in the rhetoric for whatever thing that is latched onto, it is immediately more taxing and truly terrifying about living here in the South, living here in Arkansas and what has already happened to me and other people being encouraged to act out,” Disney said.

Staff at Nashville Christian school were ‘packing’ guns according to 911 call“We do have a school person — or two, I’m not sure — who would be packing,” the staffer said in one of the 911 calls. Packing? Well if its teachers they would most likely remain with thier students to protect them. They are not going to try and chase down the shooter. One teacher armed in school only helps if its their classroom where shooter starts. Probably prevented more from being killed. The only coward in this tragedy is the shooter. There is nothing brave about killing little children. She should have just taken herself out and been done with it.
