Please don’t misinterpret my “well acktshually” as a “don’t worry about” it statement. I absolutely believe people should arm themselves if they believe they need to. Trans people are definitely included in that statement. I also don’t discount the threat that Texas’s gender affirming care bill you reference poses to trans people, and really everyone. If they can wantonly make standard medical care for trans folks illegal, what’s going to stop them from making vasectomies illegal, or medically necessary hysterectomies? It’s fucking nonsense. The government should get out from between doctors and their patients.

My point to make is, if they want to make a “mental illness” argument to take guns away from trans folks, they might have a difficult time…

Not sure what the border patrol article has to do with the conversation… besides illustrating how much of an asshole Greg Abbot is.
