The Department of Justice (DOJ) is considering imposing restrictions that would prevent those undergoing gender transition or diagnosed with gender dysphoria from purchasing firearms. Notably, the potential legal restrictions come in the wake of anti-Trump transgender Robin Westman's deadly attack on a back-to-school Mass at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, last week.
Reportedly, the DOJ is discussing internally whether to extend restrictions that bar certain mentally ill people from owning firearms to those with gender dysphoria, which is itself classified as a mental disorder. A DOJ source, speaking with the media, explained: "Individuals within the DOJ are reviewing ways to ensure that mentally ill individuals suffering from gender dysphoria are unable to obtain firearms while they are unstable and unwell."

In a YouTube video now taken offline, Westman had magazines with a variety of slurs and right-wing slogans written on them, including "kick a ----," "fart -----," "McVeigh," and "Waco." Westman also had smoke grenades with "Jew Gas" written on them and the antisemitic, pro-Holocaust slogan "6 million wasn't enough" written on their gear.
