The uptick in visits to your humble scribbler's blog keep coming, and now I'm worried that someone in the White House has stumbled upon my page.
In last week's cartoon, an unspecified Republican member of Congress floated the idea of banning gun ownership by transgender persons. I didn't want to attribute the idea to any particular congresscritter, because depriving any man, woman, child, or fetus of the right to bear arms is utter anathema to the party that believes that the Constitution begins and ends with the second half of the Second Amendment.
But lo and behold, some anonymous transphobe in Trump's White House has floated the very same idea in apparent seriousness.
In the wake of the Minneapolis Catholic church shooting, senior Justice Department officials are weighing proposals to limit transgender people’s right to possess firearms, according to two officials familiar with the internal discussions.
The talks, described as preliminary in nature, appear to build on an idea that has gained some currency in conservative media...
Will the ammosexual community sit quietly for this blatant disregard of the Guns For All Amendment? Will the NRA sleep through a tyrannical government that they've warned everyone about for half a century finally showing up?
Yeah, probably.
By the way, according to Blogger, second place in the list of websites visited on viewers' way to my blog is no longer that of the burger chain. Now second place apparently is a website where Lwaxana Troi's manservant gets all his hardware, white goods, and garden supplies.
