Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) said that pornography is a “big part” of what is driving the spike in school shootings, the HuffPost reports.
Said Black: “It’s available on the shelf when you walk in the grocery store. Yeah, you have to reach up to get it, but there’s pornography there. All of this is available without parental guidance. I think that is a big part of the root cause.”
She didn’t clarify what it is about porn that she thinks is leading to school massacres.
