Nashville Shooter Was Receiving Treatment For ‘Emotional Disorder’: Police
Joy Behar Suggests Marsha Blackburn Ignores Gun Violence For NRA Cash, Demands Total Confiscation
Joy Behar called for total gun confiscation and suggested on Tuesday that Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) was ignoring gun violence so that she could secure donations from gun rights groups like the National Rifle Association (NRA).
Behar joined her co-hosts on ABC’s midday talk show “The View” to discuss the tragic school shooting in Nashville that left six dead — three adults and three children — in addition to the shooter, a female former student who had recently begun identifying as male.

Behar was responding to a clip of Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) calling for action from the House floor and claiming that the next school shooters could already be planning their attacks.
Complaining that Congress would likely do “nothing,” Behar quickly set her sights on Blackburn.
“You know, Marsha Blackburn is the senator from Tennessee. She, of course, sent out her thoughts and prayers,” Behar began before claiming that it all came down to the money.
“She is 13th on a list of senators who receive the most money from the NRA. She received over $1.3 million in donations while representing a state with 1,273 gun deaths a year,” Behar continued. “Follow the money. This is what this is all about, the gun lobby, all these people who are selling guns. They make a lot of money off of children’s deaths apparently in this country.”
Behar paused briefly to mock conservatives for worrying about the prevalence of pornographic books in school libraries before pivoting back to guns and adding, “This, they will not do anything about.”
“It’s the guns,” Behar concluded, referencing Australia’s mandatory gun buyback after a 1996 mass shooting and appearing to suggest that was what should be done in the United States.

A short time later in the program, co-host Whoopi Goldberg claimed that late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia had “changed the meaning” of what the Constitution said and argued that the government should have access to detailed information about who owned which guns and how many of them.

She goes on to demand that the federal government know how many guns you own.
„You want to have 7011 guns? We need to know that! We need to know what you got!“
She says all gun owners are just like killers and mass shooters, „painted with the same swab.“ pic.twitter.com/P59gRb4MWl— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) March 28, 2023
