Ohio republicans go full on batshit. Guns for everybody and trans kids playing softball is bad

Thanx to DUer SouthBayDem for posting this

Lawmakers approve lower training requirements to carry guns in Ohio schools
Source: WOSU

Ohio school district employees could once again be allowed to carry guns, under legislation being fast-tracked by Republican lawmakers to counter the impact of a court ruling that restricted the practice.

The Republican-dominated legislature has passed a bill that seeks to lower training requirements for armed personnel in schools from more than 700 hours to 24 hours.

The measure aims to undo the effect of an Ohio Supreme Court ruling last year, which held that under current law, armed school workers would need hundreds of hours of training.

Democrats said the legislation sends the wrong message a week after the massacre of 19 children and two teachers at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. Republicans say the measure could prevent such shootings.

Then there’s malevolent OHio Republican crazy

Too many people let DeWine’s little old grandpa act bamboozle them. He will sign any bill that is cruel to or humiliates the vulnerable. And pass out a gun while he’s at it. They have completely ruined our beautiful state and turned us into a national embarrassment.

Ohio has become a one party state and that party is just nutz and enjoys being mean to little
gay kids or to women's own health care because they think that is what their sky fairy God
wants 'em to do.

Human beings who have compassion and understanding and aren't so narrow-minded? Not hurt one bit.

But we now live in the Divided State of Incel, where 30-35% of the country gets to have their temper tantrums broadcast as "breaking news", and hold the rest of us hostage.

Meanwhile, let's see... When a trans girl plays softball, no one gets hurt... When someone goes nuts with an AR-15... I don't even have a count of how many get hurt.

It disgusts me watching from afar as Ohio works so hard to act like they're just a suburb of Kentucky.

But welcome to Red State Hell: Guns for all, gender affirming treatment for none!
