Right-wingers faced swift backlash after using Monday's Nashville school shooting to attack transgender people and gender-affirming care.
Police said a former student armed with two "assault-type" rifles killed six people at the Covenant School, a private Christian school, before being killed by officers. Authorities said the shooter was transgender and used he/him pronouns. Some far-right lawmakers and pundits seized on the report to rail against trans people while defending guns.
