I think my calc 3 prof must’ve been an old hippy. One day we came in and he had the words “a long long time ago” written on the board and asked us if we knew what it was. Of course I knew it was the first line of American pie. I think it was the anniversary of the plane crash or something.

"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"

I’m going to have to get my data updated. I know we’re still short by dozens of trans shooters from even approaching parity in shootings with cisgender people. (Like… at a rough 1% of the population, on this chart we were missing 25 shooters. Which put us in the 1/10th of ‘normal’ range.)
