Cell Phone bans hold up great until a school shooting happens and no one can call for help... then it's all: "why didn't anyone call for help", "phone bans are dangerous to our kids", "the trans kids are to blame", "bitch bitch bitch transphobic bitching etc etc etc".

And considering it's America... School shootings are basically the Republican legally required National pastime. -- Republicans actually get boners thinking about all the dead kids and they even get extra horny thinking about all the ways they can blame those deaths on LGBTQ+ folk... despite the fact that most school shooters lean towards right wing extremist philosophies... if you can even call pure evil incarnate a philosophy.
