Mass Shooting & Gun Violence |

[BlueSteel]

Friends, let's not let this distract us from the bigger threat facing American citizens every day: a handful of transgenders in sports.

You mean it was another white guy with far right ideologies? So shocking. Provably has a history of mental illness and had no business being able to own a gun, especially a weapon of war. But the right doesn't care about banning assault weapons and large capacity magazines. All they care about is getting money from the NRA and gun manufacturers. They don't even want to try anything to make a difference in the survival rate and give kids a chance to live and not be horribly maimed.

Police had no prior history with him. Sounds like his mom used to work at the school.

Why would a neo Nazi guy spouting "6 million was not enough" attack a while Catholic church with children praying? It makes no sense, except what NYCfan just posted about his mom. May be a personal vendetta against the school.

Do we know if the shooter had a significant criminal record or prior to today was he a law-abiding gun owner?

Yeah, but there are usually red flags about these people beforehand.

Typical goofy looking incel self-important piece of shit. Desperate for any semblance of power and control, and handed that on a silver platter by the gun nuts and sycophants in government.

Right wing talking points currently emanating from the WH.

#1) Another in the growing list of assaults on Christianity
#2) National Guard will be called up for the twin cities
#3) Democrat policies have put us here
#4) 2nd amendment still rocks
#5) Catholics.......
#6) Arm the teachers
#7) National Guard at schools
#8) Moral decay
#9) Tim's fault
#10) How can this tragedy be monetized?

@BoonetheAiredale with the list...

From what I could read off his manifesto in the video on X, he' s all over the board. Written on his magazines:

"Where is your God"?

"Suck on This"

"Psycho Killer"

"Fuck Everything you Stand For"

"Kill Donald Trump"

He should have been locked up in a psych ward. Do you mean to tell me his parents and family didn't see any signs for this occurring?

The GOP Congressional candidate endorsed by the shooter unequivocally rejects the shooter’s endorsement:



Also the AKguy:

He's trans - biological male who identified as a female. Picture is up on X.

So how would someone like this be prevented from buying a gun? No criminal record, potentially no mental health history. Sometimes bad things just happen.

You mean someone that should have raised flags because people knew he was obsessed with mass shootings, and the stuff he posted online? Maybe at least take away the assault weapons and high capacity magazines to give the kids a better chance at surviving.

Minneapolis Catholic school gunman ID’d as Robin Westman— while possible manifesto shows psychotic obsession with mass shooters​

Exclusive | Minneapolis Catholic school gunman ID’d as Robin Westman— while possible manifesto shows psychotic obsession with mass shooters

Robin Westman, who is in his early 20s, opened fire through the stained glass windows of Annunciation Catholic Church during a celebratory back-to-school Mass filled with children, around 8:30 a.m.…

nypost.com

“… Police are investigating whether a series of sick YouTube videos shared on an account hours before the shooting was connected to Westman, law enforcement sources told The Post…”

NYPost says one of the mags says “kill Donald Trump” (though as fast as I can tell that has not been included with the photos).

“Kill Trump Now!” is visible on the bottom of the scope in the tweet that ends with “many far-right, white”.

Yep. Seemed like he hated everyone.
