In case you're wondering how things are going in Texas, our district canceled all sex ed classes this year but is now required to offer kids training in bleeding control techniques, including "tourniquets approved for use in battlefield trauma care by the armed forces."

@froomkin And as I usually say when stuff like this comes up 'BUT BETO SAID SOMETHING BAD ABOUT GUNS...!'

(... Gods I hate this fucking state.)

@froomkin

SC has red “bleeding control” kits mounted to a wall in schools.

In the 1970s I had worry about being hit in the head with a tetherball.

It's Leander North of Austin.

@froomkin remember, kids, if you see someone's brains or intestines spilling out of their body, don't try to push them back in.
@froomkin But that might including teaching how to use tampons in bullet wounds.
@JamesPadraicR @froomkin
No tampons in vaginas, though, only sluts use them... Virtuous women retire to the fainting couch wearing maxi pads, or better yet, they're always pregnant or nursing, so they never menstruate. /s
@froomkin This is bleak; particularly so when you recall that high-powered weapons normally used in school shootings don't leave you with holes to seal, but shreds to gather up.

@froomkin

Outrage fatigue prevents full expression of my outrage.

@froomkin

Seeing a trend here? 🤷‍♀️

@froomkin Texas is such a stupid state. It is like the king of the stupid states.
