Saving those children\u2019s lives. May God and his best people on this earth protect our children!\u201d McGregor said in a Tweet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Per a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2023\/03\/27\/fox-news-nashville-christian-school-had-no-armed-resource-officers\/\">report<\/a>&nbsp;by Breitbart News, the Christian school where this massacre occurred did not have an armed resource officer present to defend their students and faculty from a deranged mass shooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AWR Hawkins of Breitbart News&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/sports\/2023\/03\/31\/ufcs-conor-mcgregor-every-school-should-have-armed-protection\/\">noted<\/a>&nbsp;the following about how Tennessee elected officials have responded to this mass shooting tragedy:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Bill Hagerty (R-TN) are&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/2nd-amendment\/2023\/03\/30\/sen-blackburn-introducing-legislation-hire-officers-harden-schools\/\">pushing<\/a>&nbsp;legislation to set aside $900 million in funding to help schools around the country add off-duty police officers, retired police officers, and veterans for security.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>McGregor is correct here. Schools nationwide need better security. They\u2019re usually the target of choice for deranged mass shooters because of their gun-free nature. It goes without saying, the average MMA fighter has more sense than the blockhead political class that rules over us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There also needs to be discussions about the transgender mental illness phenomenon which is largely enabled by the ruling class. This type of behavior must be clamped down on and totally forced to go underground because the tolerance for it effectively constitutes a license to allow for mental illness to be glamorized and encouraged.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>McGregor hasn\u2019t been active in the Octagon since 2021, after losing his lightweight bout with Dustin Poirier via doctor stoppage. The former champion is expected to face off against former Bellator lightweight champion and five-time UFC fighter Michael Chandler at the finale of the Ultimate Fighter 31 at an event that is yet to be determined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/bigleaguepolitics.com\/mma-superstar-conor-mcgregor-says-every-school-should-have-armed-protection\/\">https:\/\/bigleaguepolitics.com\/mma-superstar-conor-mcgregor-says-every-school-should-have-armed-protection\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a 28-year-old female killed 6 people \u2014 three children and three adults \u2014 at the&nbsp;Nashville Christian school on March 27, 2023, Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Conor McGregor said that every school should&nbsp;provide&nbsp;\u201carmed protection.\u201d According to a Fox News&nbsp;report, McGregor responded to the attack by posting a tweet where he said that he \u201cwould like to see armed protection at each school\u201d across the country.
