Newsweek suggests that Tennessee GOP's policies may have laid groundwork for Covenant shooting

Did Congress pass a law at some point requiring that mainstream media outlets cough up the absolute worst takes following deadly mass shootings and we just missed it? Because Good Lord, the way the MSM have covered the murder of six innocent people at Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, has been nothing short of shameful. And every last outlet deserves to be called out for it.

That’s why we’re also calling out Newsweek over this insanity:

OK, so maybe that’s not quite as offensive as Reuters’ headline about the shooting … or maybe it is. For the record, the article’s really not any better:

Tennessee Republican legislators’ priorities have been criticized after at least three children and three adults were killed in a mass shooting at a Nashville private school on Monday.

Twitter users assailed state GOP officials in the wake of the bloodshed. This month, the state Senate, along party lines, passed a bill preventing drag shows from being performed in public or near children. The law prohibits the performances in the vicinity of schools, public parks or places of worship, beginning July 1. Another passed bill bans transgender minors from receiving gender-affirming health care such as hormone prescriptions or surgery in Tennessee. Republicans hold supermajorities in the state House and Senate.

Meanwhile, assault weapons remain legal in the state.

And? What the hell is your point?

Republican legislators who don’t think children should be at adult-oriented drag shows or that minor kids should be subjected to “gender-affirming” care before they’re capable of signing off on body- and life-altering procedures didn’t tell the Nashville shooter to kill kids instead. They didn’t tell the shooter that it’s OK to kill innocent people or that murder is legal. They want to protect children from sexual predators and psychological/medical predators. And Newsweek is painting them — not the murderer — as the bad guys.

One could certainly be forgiving for making that assumption.

Reprehensible.

That’s effectively Newsweek’s message here. Blame the Republicans and, by extension, blame Christians against kids being sexually/physically/psychologically abused.
