The Democrat Whip in the Wyoming House of Representatives has posted a Facebook story that encourages the use of violence by “transgender-ites” and their “allies” against “fascists& bigots.”
Just five days after 28-year-old Audrey Hale, a failed female-male transgenderist, shot her way into Nashville’s Covenant School and executed three staff members (Katherine Koonce, 60, headmistress; Mike Hill, 61, custodian; and Cynthia Peak, 61, substitute teacher) and three students (Evelyn Dieckhaus, 9; William Kinney, 9; and Hallie Scruggs, 9), Democrat State Representative Karlee Provenza posted a story on Facebook defending political murder and the use of violence against perceived enemies of the transgender movement. The story implied that Provenza is either an Antifa member or an active supporter of that group which does not exist.

Wyoming state Democrat lawmaker Rep. Karlee Provenza @Provenza4Wyomin posted a video on TikTok where a voiceover calls for politically-motivated murders. She also posted a graphic from an Antifa group on her Instagram suggesting Antifa supporters carry out gun violence against “fascists & bigots” to “protect” trans people. The image was posted following last week’s Nashville Christian school massacre by a #trans shooter. The graphic was made by the far-left propaganda design group Off Color Decals.
Monday, Provenza “apologized” for celebrating the murder of political opponents.
I apologize for failing to recognize the potential impact of my actions on social media, which have contributed to inflammatory and distracting online discourse, Provenza said in a Facebook statement. Especially in these divisive times, we must always maintain focus on working toward collaborative solutions to the problems facing our state and its residents.
She went on to justify the posts she’d just apologized for.
Provenza in her Monday afternoon statement explained the message behind the meme: arming and protecting the LGBTQ community, a group of people she said depend upon Second Amendment protection.
There are groups organized for this cause to serve at events such as drag shows and gay pride parades, which are attended frequently by armed protestors. In 2022, authorities arrested 31 members of a white nationalist militia, including two Wyoming residents, for conspiring to attack a pride parade in Idaho.
Queer and trans people are disproportionately victims of violence, targeted because of their sexuality and gender expression, including in Wyoming, Provenza said.
Just a day after the Covenant School shooting, Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs’ press secretary, Josselyn Berry, tweeted a message that unambiguously advocated shooting people who oppose transgenderism (Katie Hobbs’ Press Secretary Gets Into Hot Water Over Insane ‘Transphobe’ Tweet After Nashville Shooting).
Thankfully, @katiehobbs’s press secretary @joss_berry has now resigned because of this tweet, which she posted just a few hours after children were murdered by a transgender person. pic.twitter.com/HN7Klm0qyz

She was forced to resign (see Katie Hobbs Press Sec Faces Consequences of Disgraceful ‘Transphobes’ Tweet After Nashville Shooting), but, like the case of the Wyoming Democrat, the messages show that violence is considered an acceptable way of dealing with pushback from the public on transgender must-have issues like the surgical mutilation of children. That the social media posts took place within a few days of the attack on a Christian elementary school by an enraged transgenderist was a deliberate in-your-face challenge and threat to all who are perceived as enemies.
The macro message is that this movement is both violent and dangerous. Once people with the profile of a governor’s communications director and the minority whip in a state legislature get so comfortable with the idea of killing people who disagree with them that they post that desire on social media, we can safely say that the tendency toward violence is a core value of the movement they support.
Look at this…

Even in the aftermath of the school shooting, there was no shortage of people justifying the shooter’s action.

The “Trans Resistance Network” (whatever the hell that is) issued a statement expressing condolences on the dead staff and students and explaining why Hale had no other choice and, by the way, please respect “his” chosen “he/him” pronouns.
Madonna and Miley Cyrus followed suit in subtly declaring Hale to be the victim by staging fundraisers for the “trans” community in Nashville.
Madonna and Miley Cyrus both announced Donations & Fundraisers for the LGBTQI+ Trans community within days of the Nashville School Tragedy.
Nothing for the Christian community.
Nothing for the families of the 6 victims.#nashville #prayfornashville pic.twitter.com/t4zGs6WFdp

If you needed more evidence of the violence underpinning the trans movement, how about this? What other movement has a dedicated “Day of Vengeance”?
This event was only canceled the day before it was due to take place (see The ‘Trans Day of Vengeance’ Has Been Canceled, Just After the Transurrection Temper Trantrums in KY and TN), not because it was wildly inappropriate but because it allegedly received threats.
Less than a day after vowing to go ahead with a rally in Washington D.C. advocating for transgender rights, a group of organizations that had been planning the event has canceled the “Trans Day of Vengeance” over a “credible threat to life and safety.”
In the past four years, there has been a surge in the number of mass shootings carried out by transgender or related murderers. In addition to Hale, we have:
Colorado Springs, CO, nightclub shooting (Attorney: Suspected Colorado Mass Shooter Identifies as ‘Non-Binary’), November 2022, Anderson Aldrich (Nicholas Brink), “non-binary.”
Denver, CO, school shooting (Father of Colorado High School Shooting Suspect is an Illegal Immigrant Deported Twice, Charged with Very Serious Crimes), May 2019, Maya “Alec” McKinney, transgender female-to-male.
Aberdeen, MD, workplace shooting (Last Week There Was a Mass Shooting at a Maryland Industrial Park but No One Seems to Care), September 2018, Snochia Moseley, transgender female-to-male.
Three things come to mind. First, considering the number of people legitimately identifying as transgender — by that, I mean people who aren’t using transgender as a scam to see naked girls and women — is very small; they are disproportionately represented. Second, they are of the female-to-male variety. Third, the shootings run in tandem with the violent imagery and rhetoric used by transgenders and their supporters.
We need to wake up to what is going on. People already suffering from a mental disorder and who may be on a hormonal drug regimen are becoming radicalized and encouraged to use violence to address their grievances with the rest of the world. The political side of the transgender movement is not benign; that movement openly promotes violence, and until it is treated as the public safety threat that it is, we’d better get used to more Nashvilles.
