Two children are dead after the Annunciation Catholic School shooting in Minneapolis. The media calls the guns “legally purchased.” They weren’t. Federal law already disqualified the shooter twice over — through mental illness and marijuana use — but Governor Tim Walz and Minnesota’s “strong gun laws” did nothing to stop him.

In this episode of The Tenth Man Podcast, we expose the deception of Everytown’s fake “school shooting” database, the truth about trans shooters, and the negligence that let a prohibited buyer purchase guns. From Form 4473 to marijuana legalization, we show why gun control laws fail — and why real accountability points higher than the trigger puller.
