LIST OF PERPETRATORS

The posts mention a “Nashville shooter,” which appears to reference the recent school shooting at a Christian school in Nashville, Tennessee, on March 27, where the suspect, identified as Audrey Elizabeth Hale by police, reportedly identified as transgender (here).

The “Colorado Springs shooter” refers to Anderson Lee Aldrich, who is accused of a killing five people at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in November 2022, and whose lawyers have asserted identifies as non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns (here). (Skepticism over Aldrich’s assertion has since arisen, with extremism experts and people who knew the shooter weighing in, more on that here ).

The “Denver shooter” in the posts refers to a shooting at a charter school in Denver, Colorado, in May 2019. Alec McKinney, a transgender teenager, was sentenced to life in prison following the shooting, Reuters reported at the time (here).

The “Aberdeen shooter” appears to reference Snochia Moseley, the suspect of a shooting at a Rite Aid Corp facility in Aberdeen, Maryland (here). Some news reports said Moseley identified as transgender (bit.ly/3ZpwMMQ), (bit.ly/3LX7DWF).

NOT THE MAJORITY

Calculating exact percentages when it comes to mass shooting statistics in the U.S. varies by way of counting, as organizations define mass shootings in different ways.

A spokesperson for The Violence Project, which records data on mass shootings in the U.S. since 1966 with “four or more” people killed in public (here), told Reuters via email that “Nashville is the first case of a trans” perpetrator in their database and per their methodology. They sent Reuters a database of shootings with 190 entries.

A normal person who identifies as the sex they were born.

Yeah, I myself was asking Grok about this, and Grok decided it was time to give me a little sermon about trans being victims more often than perps, and that cis men composed the greatest number of mass shooters. But then I said to Grok, but compared to the PERCENTAGE of the population of each group how does it stack up? That was when Grok had to admit that there was something amiss. But it came back one more time to mention that trans are more often victims than perps.

I refuse to acknowledge the legitimacy of the pronoun “cis”, and will immediately dismiss anyone using it in a conversation with me.

Therefore, ipso facto, all trannies are loving, kind people, despite the fact that when they look down, they hate what they see.

Straw man argument through and through.

No one is arguing that the majority of mass shooters are the mentally disordered with gender dysphoria, as the headline implies.

What is obvious to anyone with two brain cells to rub together, is that an inordinate number of mass shootings are being perpetrated by this group.

I know a few FReepers often post a list of mass shooters, the majority of whom are disordered sex-pretenders.

Trans is a small percentage of the total population. Trans is a large percentage of mass shooters. The term disproportionate applies.

You never heard of all this transgender crap prior to the Obergefell decision. It really did open a gigantic can of worms, and not just in the USA but worldwide.

The depraved homosexual movement is what started all this. There is no fetish that those freaks won’t approve of. Just look at what that disgusting NAMBLA association is all about. Their members are filthy degenerate cretins.

Rick Santorum warned about this. No we are here.

I guess the phrase per capita is lost on the author. Most of the folks killed by cops are white, too, but the blacks get the hyped, hysterical press, and the rioting.

Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

What is a “cis man”?

Those who seek to undermine Western Civilization invented that term so that they could legitimize the terms “trans” and “non-binary” to argue that those perversions are normal.

It is a way to assign a woke classification to identify a normal healthy person.

Okay, now let’s do percentage of population. Out of the population of people who are self-identifying as trans, what is the percentage of mass shooters as opposed to the percentage of those who don’t identify as trans?
