Protesters flooded into Tennessee’s capitol building Thursday holding signs and chanting, “Gun control now.”
The group does not specify and particular gun control measure nor have they indicated a gun control which would have prevented the 28-year-old transgender attacker from killing six people at a Christian school on Monday.
WKRN’s Kensley Hargett posted video of the protesters:
The New Republic reported that protesters gathered outside the capitol as well, where they chanted “protect our kids.”
Lisa Quigley / POLITICALLY+ /TMXBreitbart News noted FOX News’ John Robert’s observation that the Christian school had no armed resource officers present when the 28-year-old transgender attack opened fire Monday.
Spencer Lindquist / Breitbart NewsSurveillance footage showed the attacker holding a pistol caliber carbine as she walked the halls of the school and faced no armed resistance while looking for targets.
Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Bill Hagerty (R-TN) are introducing legislation to set aside $900 million in grants that schools can use to hire off-duty police officers, retired officers, and veterans, for campus security.
