The crazed transgender dad who shot up a high school hockey game in Rhode Island threatened to go “BERSERK” in a trans-rights rant just a day before he massacred two family members and injured three others.

Robert Dorgan, who also identified as Roberta Esposito, killed himself after opening fire at the Pawtucket ice rink where his son was playing on Monday afternoon — less than a week after another transgender gunman shot up a school in one of Canada’s deadliest mass shootings.

The night before the bloodshed, the 56-year-old dad — who underwent gender reassignment surgery in 2020 — made an ominous post on X in anger at someone calling trans Democratic Rep. Sarah McBride a man.

“Keep bashing us. But do not wonder why we Go BERSERK,” Dorgan wrote in the chilling post.

Police believe Dorgan, too, was targeting his own family when he wreaked havoc at the ice rink following years of heated court disputes over his identity.

The fatal victims of Monday’s shooting include the mother of Dorgan’s hockey player son and the student athlete’s sibling, multiple sources told WPRI.

I can’t say this guy was mentally ill.

That would be a secular diagnosis.

For those familiar with the Bible, then this guy was pure evil.

In this age of information and secular humanism, common folk have lost their ability to discern evil.

Evil in the broadest sense is rebellion against God and the ways of God.

Nimrod, grandson of the cursed Ham, became known as a great rebel against God.

What greater rebellion can their be than to deny the gender God created you in?

To say he was mentally ill is an insult to those who are mentally ill.

For these perverts there is no therapy or cure other than repenting and turning towards God.

I have yet to see a happy ending for one of these perverts.

Maybe Bruce Jenner will live out his temporal life in some degree of peace.

As for his eternal disposition, I would not want to trade places with him.

X is a social media account. This guy didn’t do it in private. Did anyone drop a dime to the cops about the guy on X threatening to go postal?

I suspect there are tens of thousands of such threats per day.

I also suspect his family stopped reading his tweets years ago. They're victims and don't need to be exposed to more of his illness online.

The "doctors" who would have exposed him were instead the ones mutilating him and prescribing him mind-altering hormone shots, so they're not trustworthy.

Employers, except in certain industries, don't follow employees due to risks of discrimination lawsuits.

The man likely had an audience of strangers who were also mentally ill and felt the same internal rage that he did, so they wouldn't contact authorities.

I can't hotlink the image but yeah, he's a National Socialist (Nazi). Notice the tattoo of SS lightning bolts and the SS skull.

It’s almost like when you enable mentally ill people, they run amok. Shocking.

I hope the Good Samaritan that disarmed the shooter (first weapon) is named if he is ok with it. We need more heroes to look up to.

What he said was probably not actionable. He said no wonder people go berserk. That can have lots of meanings but coupled with his delusional thinking that he was a woman it should have probably been looked into.

Long past time to reopen th emental hospitals closed in the 1970s. When that happened and the crazies declared sane enough to walk the streets, mass murders took off like a rocket.
I can only remember THREE mass killings between 1949 and 1969.
Howard Unruh in 1949 Luger pistol.
Richard Speck killed 8 student nurses with a KNIFE.
Charles Whitman the Texas Tower shooter with a bolt action rifle.

It was actually Reagan in 1981. One of his big mistakes.

IMO trans people are angry because they have the ache from hemorrhoids constantly.

In the mid-1960s a Medicaid provision prohibited reimbursement to states for mental illness treatment in facilities that had more than sixteen beds. States then closed their large mental hospitals in order to get 50% reimbursement from Medicaid for out-patient treatment.

I have always said one should avoid transgenders in social gatherings. If you see one, leave with your loved ones.

Just like yah can’t cure rabies.

Dad just realized that his self-hatred was not cured by taxpayer funded mutilation and life-long drug dependency. Awwwwwwww.
