This is going to result in either the left arming themselves in a way that will give them political power comparable to the right.
Or the courts will set a legal precedent for gun control regulations.
While I'm disgusted by the fact that it's a targeted act of persecution, this could be the Trump DOJ setting up a long-term win for the left.
Gun control would not be a win for anyone, especially not on the left.
Liberals love gun control
Leftists do not

Ahah, the US right finally found someone that they don't want armed to the teeth.
I'm sure they have a whole list, this just happens to be their favored first domino
Where is the NRA? First trans then unpardoned felons, the homeless, the unemployed poor people. The list goes on. Once in place, adding another group will not be questioned.
They do this and the motives for violence only increase. How long until the next high profile assassination?

If this is allowed to happen. This will just be the start.
Hahaha...omg. USA. You're always good for a laugh. A sad laugh, as there's always comedy in tragedy and vice versa. But a laugh.
If I'd be lqbtq I'd probably already packing bags for a nice emigration into universal healthcare instead of fascicm and stupidity. Most anywhere else sounds like a nice destination!
