    And right on cue....

    [​IMG]

    Imagine a headline... "Black killer"... "Gay killer"... Incredibly irresponsible and will do nothing but stoke hatred and violence... Not just against trans folks, but publishing the name and image of the shooter will encourage copycats. Just ****ing terrible judgment all around.

    They are just reporting a fact.

    Inconvenient for your narratives, but it's a fact.

    One would only make it headline news if they wanted to create animus against trans people.

    This goes as well for any other demographic.

    If you killed a bunch of people it would be stupid to put "GERMAN KILLER" in the headline... As if being German makes someone commit homicide.

    Have you ever thought about reporting facts? Instead of posting propaganda from Instagram? Weren't you spinning Paul Pelosi propaganda?

    Yesterday he posted another conspiracy how biden was supposedly doing a gun event and forgot and spoke about something else when in reality thats what the event was scheduled for the entire time. The video went viral even though it was literally disinformation.

    These are your smart employed Republicans. Imagine the redneck boomers and you realize how we're doomed as a society

    It's the New York Post. Not all that surprising for that crappy paper. People who are so blindly loyal to anything that paints transgender individuals in a bad light would approve of this, even if they are told it encourages copycats.

    It's natural to hate terrorists Ike this person. Its also easy to blame the folks you don't like when tragedies like this happen. Asian, trans, male, white, black, young, old, these terrorists come in all shapes and sizes. The victims don't deserve it and nobody on this forum is to blame.

    There are enablers. If you are part of the extreme gun culture and refuse to support any gun reform, you are an enabler of mass shootings, school shootings, and daily gun violence.

    Completely expected response on their part.

    It's an unpopular take, but this person probably felt the same type of hopelessness and disaffection that most mass shooters do.

    This situation knows no gender, color, sex, or creed. Trauma does not discriminate, and it perpetuates itself.

    I wish this person had found a way out of this dark place without hurting anyone. Same goes for Dylan Roof, Micah Johnson, Nidal Hasan, and on and on...

    Seems like a fairly uncharitable interpretation.

    I see no justifications offered in the statement.

    What I do see is a plea for help.

    FYI I've read the Twit thread. If I wanted to respond to Twitter posters I'd join Twitter, k?

    Whoever released that statement should be placed on the terrorist watch list. Yikes
