To think the sex of suspects should always be properly reported for violent or sexual crimes, the mass killer in Canada was male. That's important to know.

"Suspect in Canada shooting is identified as an 18-year-old with history of police visits to her home"

Is incorect. Women don't tend to go on mass killing sprees. Or rape many people.

Do you think the families of the victims care whether the person who fired the shots wore a dress or had male genitalia?

They care that a mentally ill violent male was allowed to have access to guns and roam freely instead of being treated for his mental illness in a secure psychiatric hospital - because he wore a dress.

She was trans and it has nothing to do with any reason she did the crime. So rage baiting.

If we want to prevent mass shootings then we need to understand the causes. “Being trans” has a lot to do with reasons. These kids are distressed and not getting the proper mental health help they need. Instead they are being pumped full of exogenous hormones that makes things worse.

They are radicalised online with images of guns and slogans like “arm trans kids”.

I don’t understand why we are ever supposed to give a shiny shit about how someone ‘identifies’ when they’ve just murdered people?!

He’s male. It’s always a man. Enough of this Emperor’s New Clothes shit in the media!
