That *****'s sole qualification is that she is a black homo.From the Bearing Arms blog;
"White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre took aim at the governor’s support for permitless carry; invoking the recent shootings in Orange County, Florida that left three people, including a local reporter, dead."

Some of the most prolific killers in history used no guns to commit their crimes
Does Jim Jones count?Of the top ten biggest individual or small group mass murderers (usually one person but no more than 5 people committing murder in a single act) in U.S. history, most did not use guns. There have been bigger mass murders not shown on this list, but those were:
The top 10 -
- murders by large groups going after other large groups,
- murders by or with the tacit approval of the U.S. government, or
- murders that took place over a period of time, i.e. not a single act.
So, that's 6 by plane crash, 2 by bombing, and 2 by shooting.
- American Airlines 11, 1390 dead by plane crash
- United Airlines 175, 1363 dead by plane crash
- Egypt Air flight 990 out of JFK airport, 217 dead by plane crash
- American Airlines 77, 189 dead by plane crash
- OKC Murrah building, 168 dead by bombing
- Las Vegas concert, 61 dead by shooting
- Orlando nightclub, 50 dead by shooting
- Bath Township, 45 dead by bombing
- Pacific Air 773, 44 dead by plane crash
- United Airlines 93, 44 dead by plane crash

Wasn't in the USA.Does Jim Jones count?
I had forgotten about the Happyland club fire. There was only one entrance at street level that fed up a single staircase to the second-floor club. There were no other entrances or exits. The murderer poured a gallon of gas at the bottom of the stairs and set it alight. 87 people died.Even today, if you really wanted mass casualties, a petroleum based fire bomb
If you can remember it, let me know. I think you may be thinking of the Bath massacre from 1927. I listed that case as 45 deaths from bombing. Actually, it was 44 from bombing and 1 from shooting. The bad guy used a rifle to kill his wife before blowing up his farm, the local school, and himself.I don't remember the specifics.
The worst school mass killing was in the early 1900s. The killer used fire.

That particular speaker wasn't going to let it pass anyway. All that happened is that voters started to see how many Democrats had a "-R" by their name....As I recall similar action happened in TX when the 'smart ones' went to the private home of the then TX House Speaker to get him to move the bill for open carry through the chamber. Speaker said F**k Y** coming to my house like that and the bill died for two years until passed in 2021.
Goooo florida!From the Bearing Arms blog; "Speaking to reporters on Thursday, the Florida governor reiterated his support for removing the requirement that law-abiding gun owners first obtain a carry license before they can lawfully bear arms throughout the state...Florida House Speaker Paul Renner, who reiterated his support for the legislation...BUT BUT..."Florida Senate President Kathleen Passidomo has been less enthusiastic about constitutional carry..."
