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 AM GUESSING THE “BERSERK” CAME BEFORE THE “BASH”.

I looked at the photo. Dude has some serious shoulders. Must have lifted a few weights early on.

It is clear that not only are these transgenders scizophrenic but they are quite dangerous and prone to murderous violence. They need to be isolated and locked up. Can’t deny the evidnce.

Gender is subjective? Do you think this is true? There is something wrong with this argument when those who change gender start to act like they think members of the opposite sex act. So there is some element of sex that determines gender behavior. It seems like a trick of nomenclature mixing grammatical concepts, biological reality and societal norms to come to conclusion where being a man or a woman is a choice and the rest of the world now has to 1. Pretend that a is b 2. Feel good about lying to themselves 3. Censure others so they also play make believe correctly. Reading old math books they talk about the gender map it is clear the word gender has been refined to what you wrote. Can’t shake the notion that it logically doesn’t work. Pretending doesn’t make false true. Why do you think gender and sex can be separate unrelated? To me it seems the practical Application demonstrates that notion to cause insanity .

AND NOW SPORTS.

I was wrong about the BC tranny murderer. I thought it would be erased by Friday. But it lasted the whole weekend.

This tranny murderer will be memory holed by Thursday since he was so ghastly looking.

We need to lock these lunatics up.

And we need to lock up any doctor that performs surgery to "convert" them.

I could swear that I saw this exact person at a hotel swimming pool a few years ago when I was visiting family for a wedding. Same physique, same face, hair, had tattoos. He was a nutty guy then trying way too hard to be a little girly, except for his voice was still quite masculine. He was talking so loudly that you didn’t need to be near him to hear him. He totally creeped me out.

When I look at that guy, I think there should be a law allowing anyone to beat these people with bats.

The memes are already starting with the Netflix posters, but I posted this because it shows his SS lightning bolt tattoo with the skull and crossed bones the SS officer wore on their hats. The man was a leftist.

and the Left “celebrates” this Trans mess. Doctors should be sued for “doing harm”.

You may not want to see such manifestations of mental illness but there's something to be said for encouraging them to show you exactly who they are instead of adopting disguises from "the closet".

This man was 50 years old when he decided to come out of the closet as a transvestite. It would have been much better if he was encouraged at age 12 to "be true to himself" and never marry nor have children.

I hope the Good Samaritan that disarmed the shooter (first weapon) is named if he is ok with it.

There are videos that show several people piling on him to get the gun.

That’s what happens when you close the mental institutions.

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.

Jesus died for him too. If he repents and accepts Christ's sacrifice he will be forgiven. It's up to him.

I don’t believe that any of them were declared sane. It was more of an “inclusivity” push from the democrats. Remember in those days they were pushing the whole self-esteem dogma, and being locked up was stigmatizing negative effect to one’s self esteem.

I don’t recall who sponsored this law but I bet Ted Kennedy was involved.

Also it didn’t help that there were several high profile cases coming out about the abusive and inhumane conditions that were happening at some of these facilities

***It was actually Reagan in 1981. One of his big mistakes. ***
Actually begun by Edmund G. “Pat” Brown (1959-1967), carried on by Ronald Reagan (1967-1975), the continued by “Jerry” Brown (1975-1983).
No one gets a “pass” on this travesty.

There must be more than that. The Charles Manson murders were 1969.

I just stayed as far away from him in the pool as I could. He really made me uncomfortable.

Police are probing for motive, as though being another tranny whackjob demon, expressing their violence upon people who would not share their delusion, was not enough.
