I had my suspicions when CNN kept referring to the shooter as ‘they’ and said as much to DH.

Lo and behold, a crossdressing man called ‘Robin’ (formerly Robert) Westman.

Now it's come out that he's trans will the BBC respect his pronouns?

What a cruel, senseless crime. Makes me hope there is a hell.

Since my post (21:11), the BBC has removed pronouns when referring to the killer.

Deleted wrong thread.

It is really frightening, this is at least the second time a trans shooter targeted Christian schoolkids? I’m interested to hear where he got those weapons.

The video in this thread included a list at 9 mins approx. I have not checked that the list is correct or complete.

Fuck. It was distressing enough seeing a school shooting in a Catholic Church in the USA.

There's a fair amount of anti- Catholicism in transgender community. When are they going to condemn such hate? It must play some role.

For those wondering if it's been verified they are trans, there's a substantial mix of pronouns used across the press.

And yet they still say it never happens.

Those poor children, victims to a mental illness fueled ideology.

I saw the video he made before the shooting. He seemed like the typical gun-obsessed, self-absorbed, self-aggrandizing, hate-filled incel male. I bet the blame gets shifted onto the church, GC women and the right for not affirming his gender.

and the media referring to him as her. This isn’t the crime of a woman. I wonder if the mental health of this person was explored fully when they were being affirmed and having name changes? Those poor poor families. Those poor poor children. A tragedy.
