"But in this situation would it be okay to deadname? No? How about this?"
What a blathering asshat.
Wouldn't the cops be looking for anyone alive in a mass shooting to rescue… You know the cops are not spooky reverse assassins who murder anyone who's not on a list? They yell out to drop the weapon before they shoot Ron!
"He had long hair… we were looking for a male to rescue and so we figured since our belief was males should have short hair we shot the unarmed child" is that the thought?
First responders would have access to an official school class list, digital or hardcopy, when looking for survivors of any disaster. Official class lists gnerally have the legal, as well as preferred name for a given student.
Of course, any sensible rescuer would use the preferred name if they’re calling or checking names off a list, but in a real emergency, they would just get the student bodies of whatever gender to safety. It’s not like they’d be putting them in line boy-girl-boy-girl.
What do the cops do when they encounter a Sam? Or a Taylor or Morgan?
Is that Samuel or Samantha?
Sorry we couldn’t save any of the kids with gender neutral names.
How about doing something radical that would be a win/win situation. Let's do something to stop school shootings! Comprehensive gun reform and robust mental health availability.
Good luck with that!
Nothing can be done at the state level because guns can be carried over state lines.
And nothing will be done at the federal level because we have a crackpot leading the House of Representatives who thinks that gun violence is the result of teaching evolution in public schools. (Memo to Mike Johnson. Other countries teach science, including evolution, in their schools and do not have the gun violence we have.)
Next year, when the Dems flip the House – and they probably will – they will unfortunately lose the Senate since Manchin's seat is gone. (I know, he was no great prize, but he did vote for Schumer and organizing resolution which made Durbin the chair of Judiciary instead of Blanche DuBois.)
Sherrod Brown is also having a rough re-election race this cycle because it is a presidential year and Trump will probably carry Ohio with coattails.
The third state to worry about is Montana but the reports on Tester is that he is in relatively good shape, and he may get lucky and draw Rosendale as his opponent again.
So, we end up going from 51 Dems to 49 Dems.
As stupid as Weinberg is, the award for bad ideas coupled with bad timing goes to John "Cornhole" Kennedy who though that this was the right to week to bring up an amendment to make it easier for mentally unstable military veterans to get access to firearms.
