A state spokesperson says a man brought a handgun into the Wisconsin Capitol and demanded to see Gov. Tony Evers and returned at night with an assault rifle.
As you can see, the defendant, a biological MAN in a dress, was carrying a pistol in HIS purse when HE tried to invade a women’s bathroom to express HIS sick gender delusion. I ask the fine Texans of this jury, would you let this sick MAN rape your daughters at gunpoint?
I’m not making a sophistical argument, they already do this. It’s just that they currently focus more on codewords like “thug” to make sure a black man who had three joints in his house can never vote again. If you want gun control, arm every LGBT person in the country and Republicans will ban everything more advanced than a rubber band shooter the very next day, just like how the first sweeping gun control legislation was instituted by then-Governor Reagan to keep the Black Panthers down.
Texas takes (usually black) people’s guns away all the time, they’re not even close to having the most permissive gun laws in the country. As with all things Republicans do, Texan gun culture is massively hypocritical to fulfill a racist double standard.

Sadly you’re 100% correct. They cling to the bathroom panic even though their arguments have basically no basis whatsoever in reality. Even the “Family Research Council”, a religious right-wing think-tank, was only able to find 23 cases of “bathroom incidents” over the span of 18 years - most of which involved cis men, not trans women or even crossdressers, and two cases of discrimination against trans women who were just using the bathroom. Plus in one case a conservative man entered the women’s changing room when KIDS were changing to “make a point” about a nondiscrimination law that was recently passed. Everything these creeps claim the left is doing is always just projection.
Meanwhile states that discriminate against trans students have the same rate of sexual assault as other states, and trans teens are much more likely to be victims of assault, especially when they’re denied access to facilities that match their identity:

If you’re interested in trying this, you should know that there are groups who promote legal, safe, and responsible use of firearms for self-defense of the sexual-minority community.
About The Pink Pistols
“Thirty-one states allow all qualified citizens to carry concealed weapons. In those states, homosexuals should embark on organized efforts to become comfortable with guns, learn to use them safely and carry them. They should set up Pink Pistols task forces, sponsor shooting courses and help homosexuals get licensed to carry. And they should do it in a way that gets as much publicity as possible.“
–Jonathan Rauch, Salon Magazine, March 13, 2000
We did. There are now over 45 Pink Pistols chapters nationwide, and more are starting up every day. We are dedicated to the legal, safe, and responsible use of firearms for self-defense of the sexual-minority community. We no longer believe it is the right of those who hate and fear gay, lesbian, bi, trans, or polyamorous persons to use us as targets for their rage. Self-defense is our RIGHT. https://www.pinkpistols.org/about-the-pink-pistols/

Texas will legalize biracial transgender lesbian atheists before Texas starts actually taking people’s guns away.

Is that data available to the public?
Yes, data on felony convictions is available to the public.
Sorry, I thought you meant Texas had some policy different from the rest of the country.
Those are already legal according to the Constitution.
Not according to the Republican Party
