Alicia Blonde, a teacher at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, remembered school shooter Nikolas Cruz as someone who had a "pride issue" with his Hispanic background and "didn't feel comfortable in his own skin, in his culture."
Blonde lamented that Cruz "didn't really like to speak Spanish too much."

It sounds like the school was cramming him into Spanish language expectations when he simply wanted to speak English.
I guess the strongly worded statement to him to not show up was another straw broken.

What does that image of a post even mean? How does this prove it was false?

Every other Hispanic kid who moved young to the states from, say, Puerto Rico, and assimilated themselves into the mainstream, has issues speaking Spanish or clinging to their culture of birth. It’s uncool to speak Spanish or to Speak English with a Spanish accent.
I know. I can count five nieces, two nephews and a couple of godchildren who moved to the mainland early in their lives, but late enough where Spanish was their first language, and now they just want to be just like any other mainland teen/young adult.

Really? Where did you hear that? I read yesterday that he was adopted(Along with his brother) as an infant, not sure where he came from
To: Sarah Barracuda
Supposedly his mother died of the flu in November.
Anti-Vaxxers. That’s the REAL culprit here!

To: Buckeye McFrog
Yeah and the FBI was alerted about posts he made in SEPTEMBER..two months before his mother died of the flu..he was always a freakin nut..he killed animals, shot at chickens..banged his head against the wall..he was such a freak that the freaky kids in school stayed away from him..he freaked out the freaks
To: Sarah Barracuda

The kid posted does not look like Nikolas Cruz imo. The eyes are even a different color. Eyebrows a different shape.

I've long thought such flagrantly guilty mass murderers should have all their federal privacy shields judicially removed. I'm sick and tired of all the 'authorities' saying they can't discuss whatever preceded this because of the perp's privacy rights. I suspect too often the 'authorities' are hiding their own malfeasance behind the perp's privacy shield. If you believe the death penalty is appropriate for such then certainly we should also be able to kill their 'privacy.' If you don't believe in the death penalty, but want to lock them up for a long time, shouldn't you accept opening all their juvenile records, counseling records, etc. so long as that is done with due process and in ways to not impinge on the still legitimate privacy rights of the innocent. I don't care a d*mn about whether a properly convicted mass murderer is embarrassed by his coming out. Heck, maybe the risk of becoming so embarrassed might dissuade some from becoming perps.
And, just maybe, dispassionate, public, examination of all that evidence will lead society to recognize patterns that let us prevent future mass murders. Seems to me an awful lot of these were alleged to have warning signs in advance. There used to be a common sense category of 'dangerous lunatics' to which you could be assigned and for which you could be institutionalized, before proving your membership by inflicting mass casualties. And that we'd been able to do that without shipping all political dissenters to Soviet style 'psych' hospitals. Study the heck out of the worst cases. Let different jurisdictions legislate different remedies. Compare their results and adjust accordingly.
