People, did you see the horrible news? Another woke shooter murdered children praying in church.

What a terrible tragedy.

    2. “Police say they are aware of video material apparently time-released by the suspected shooter and of possible writings shared by the person.

      A YouTube channel titled Robin W had at least two videos that were captured before being taken down by the site.

      In one that lasts about 10 minutes, the alleged shooter shows weapons and ammunition. Many have sayings written on them including the phrases “kill Donald Trump” and “Where is your God?” Some are in Cyrillic.”

      1. Authorities have identified the suspect as 23-year-old Robin Westman, who had previously legally changed their name from Robert during a gender transition. Westman had attended the same school and was the child of a former staff member or donor.

        Weapons and Method
        Westman attacked from outside, firing through windows using a legally purchased rifle, shotgun, and pistol.

        Manifestos and Videos
        Prior to the shooting, Westman posted disturbing content online—including on YouTube—featuring violent manifestos, admiration for other mass shooters (like Adam Lanza), and firearms bearing hate-filled messages. The materials included antisemitic rhetoric, phrases like “Kill Donald Trump”, Holocaust references, and slogans such as “Israel must fall”. These videos and writings were later removed by investigators.

      1. Shooter went after the same school that the shooter had gone to as a kid and that the shooter’s mom used to work at. If the guns had right-wing slogans, you’d be saying it was personal.

        1. Wow, you can’t even say he and his, doing strange verbal contortions.

          I don’t think he was moved to shoot by ideology. I think he was mentally unwell, and his illness was aggravated by hormonal treatments. That he was left-wing doesn’t mean he went on a shooting spree because he’s left-wing. Is that too hard to follow or are you managing?

          1. “Anothe woke shooter” and “woke means left-wing” certainly send a different message frrom this one.

        1. Well, I downvoted “woke means left-wing,” as this statement a) mischaracterizes “woke,” and b) mischaracterizes the shooter’s agenda. Her manifestos and slogans were too all over the place to label neatly–if you pick “she was trans and she hated Trump,” I can understand (though not condone) the “woke” label, but we see that she also hated Blacks, so she was a white supremacist. A woke white supremacist…?

          All of which illustrates the futility of putting her into a convenient box instead of asking, “Who allowed such a disturbed individual to buy guns?”

          1. Woke means left-wing to pretty much everybody who uses this word.

            As to “who allowed such a disturbed individual to commit murder”, criminals don’t normally ask permission to commit crime. He was already going to break the law by committing murder, what’s the logic in assuming that he wouldn’t break a much less serious law of weapons ban?

            As for referring to the shooter as she, he detransitioned and publicly lamented having been “brainwashed” (his word) into transgenderism. So you aren’t even respecting the shooter’s posthumous wishes with this “she.” It’s a mystery why you are doing it at all.

            1. “He was already going to break the law by committing murder…”

              So, fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, killers gotta kill? I mean, maybe, but I was kinda hoping we could do a little better.

              As for the shooter’s (his?) pronouns, yes, he had regrets about doing the whole trans thing, and he still wanted to be a girl. I’ve seen reporters switch pronouns back and forth as they question involved parties. Instead of stamping our feet and complaining, “The language I use can’t accommodate such exceptions to everyday reality! Pout, pout, pout!”, maybe we can just try to help people get the care they need. I’m all for leading with compassion–Robin the shooter deserved compassion once.

              1. I understand calling people what they prefer in their presence. I do it myself out of kindness. But I don’t understand people who do it when the person in question is not there. Who is the addressee of their performance? It kind of scares me when this happens.

              3. “The care they need”

                Agreed.

                It should be much easier, and much more common, to commit these people involuntarily to secure residential mental hospitals.

              4. It’s shocking that this guy was devolving for such a long time and nobody cared. Nobody was there to notice or act kindly towards him. Where are family and community? Where’s the healthcare system? An unwell guy is pumped full of hormones and discarded like a guinea pig that’s no longer useful for the experiment.

              5. It’s just like with the fent zombies here. In what universe is giving them free food and letting them continue to live in filth, beg on streetcorners, and sleep in the woods while they slowly kill themselves the compassionate option?

                This is the result of affirming every mental illness and self-destructive tendency.

            2. But the shooter had guns that he _legally_ acquired. This wasn’t some tough street-wise kid. He was (like most of these mass shooters) a spoiled suburbanite. I would be that he didn’t even know how/where to get illegal weapons. If we had put up even the smallest of barriers to impede him as he acquired an arsenal, maybe the tragedy wouldn’t have happened. I’m willing to agree that many (most? all?) trans people have some mental health issues. Shouldn’t we make it harder for people with poor mental health (not just trans people to be clear) to acquire military-grade weapons?

      1. Absolutely. And remember this population is so fragile they go completely mental at places like starbucks for trivial things like not being addressed as “Ma’am.” Powder-kegs in human form.

          1. Another thing I hate, and this happened the last time a trans man shot up a catholic school. The discourse among the dems turned immediately about “protecting trans people”. Like what the FUCK! Christian children were murdered and all their sympathies were oriented towards assuaging the hurt feelings of other mentally ill trannies who could be stigmatized by this event.

            It’s like that Norm Macdonald joke: “What terrifies me is if ISIS were to detonate a nuclear device and kill 50 million Americans. Imagine the backlash against peaceful Muslims?”

        2. Back in less “compassionate” days, people that mentally ill would be institutionalized for the protection of both the public and themselves.

          1. That is 100x more compassionate than letting them destroy themselves and everyone around them. Same with mentally-ill homeless drug addicts.

      1. That’s Nick Fuentes, right? I discovered him during the Iran war and have become a regular listener now. He’s sharp! And completely different from the image painted of him in social media.

        How do you deal with he says about jews? It’s pretty hardcore stuff. He talks shit about indians too but it doesn’t bother me.

        1. I was forced to read yet another woke book at work whose author is named Rosenberg. Because it’s always a Rosenberg. I’m fed up with it just like everybody else. Fed up and embarrassed.

          Those two friends who quit talking to me because I criticized Pritzker? What do you think they have in common?

          1. That’s how I feel too. Fed up and embarrassed. There’s no getting around the grim truth that Indians want to be known by their top 5% and get mad when foreigners judge the top 5% from the behavior of its 95%.

            2. Writer Mikhail Veller wrote a whole novel about the Jewish authorship of the repressive liberal state apparatus. It’s a beautiful novel but it will never be translated because he speaks even more bluntly than Fuentes. Plus, he’s a Jew, and nobody could dismiss him as an antisemite.
