Far-Left Tennessee Legislators Led Insurrection at State Capitol

While pro-trans, anti-gun insurrectionists attacked police officers and legislators in the Tennessee State Capitol on Thursday, attempting to force their way onto the State House floor, their insurrection was being spearheaded by a trio of far-left legislators who took over the House lectern shouting threats of “no action, no peace.” The “action” they were looking for was the destruction of America’s 2nd Amendment and the enshrinement of “trans rights” just days after an anti-Christian, transgender terror attack in Tennessee’s capital city of Nashville claimed the lives of 3 children and 3 adults.

Tennessee Democrat State Reps. Justin Pearson, Justin Jones, and Gloria Johnson led the insurrection at Tennesee’s State Capitol in favor of banning guns and enshrining so-called “trans rights” in the state, just days after the Nashville trans terror attack. While the three legislators stormed the lectern on the House floor, roughly 1,000 violent demonstrators clashed with police officers outside of the chambers. Many of them appear to be of high school age, prompting questions as to why they weren’t in school and if they were bussed to the capitol by left-wing political operatives.

Tennessee Republican State Rep. Monty Fritts described the insurrection by tweeting that “wannabe communists conducted a probing attack upon the state of Tennessee.”

“They attempted this on the floor of the House. Republican leadership demonstrated that we will not tolerate their stupidity. The communist[s] failed. Miserably.”

Even Democrat leadership was opposed to the radical Reps. attempted communist insurrection, and blasted the three Reps. at the lectern, eventually leading them to exit the House floor.

In aftermath of the insurrection, some Tennessee Reps. are talking about the possibility of expelling the three radical insurrectionists from the legislature.

Despite claiming after the fact (and in the face of negative press coverage) that insurrection in Tennessee centered exclusively around banning guns and not around glorifying the militantly left-wing “trans community” in the aftermath of an anti-Christian terror attack, “trans rights” and the memory of Nashville’s trans terrorist shooter played an active role in the insurrection.

Video footage captured in the Capitol shows that pro-trans, anti-gun demonstrators counted the transgender terrorist who carried out the Nashville attack among its victims, holding up “seven fingers [for] seven victims.”

“Every death is a tragedy y’all,” a speaker claimed. “Seven lives.”

“I’d say there were seven victims,” another insurrectionist said in the video. “Yep,” another replied.

This is the most violent insurrection in human history. Democrats stormed the Tennessee state Capitol over LGBTQ concerns. Our state should immediately issue a state of emergency. This insurrection makes 9/11 look like an average day. ARREST THE INSURRECTIONISTS! pic.twitter.com/Au8w4qmjQJ
