I have never lived in an area that cared about kids MORE than middle TN. Incredible philanthropy for schools and youth programs. The shooting is DEEPLY felt here. Please don't tell me that folks here don't care about kids' deaths. they are DEEPLY moved. |

I haven't used the word, but I think this captures it.... |
And a state, no doubt, that you have never been to. You have no clue. |
Not if they don’t do anything but continue to puff their chests about protecting children from (checks notes) *drag queens*. I know Tennessee well. I am from the Kingsport area where people identify their church affiliation when they first meet. Also, a lot of them are on the dole for “disability” while worrying about what the blacks in town are getting in terms of benefits. They think they are good people. They are not. |
The same is true of eastern Tennessee. |
Lived in northeast Tennessee for years. It’s gorgeous. The people? Not so much. Nothing about Tennessee policy today says they love children. You can’t just bleat “Jesus Loves Me, this I know” and poof you’re good. |
It's probably a good thing you moved away since you seem to have disdain for the people there. And, personal anecdotes are great.... but they are still merely personal anecdotes. |
Bullshit. If they were deeply moved they would have joined that protest at the Capitol. This is a state that enacted anti-trans legislation in the name of protecting children but will shrug at doing anything about guns after children are shot dead. |
