NY Post reporting that the shooter was an "incel" who was goaded on incel discussion boards into self-loathing--blaming his incel status on being black.

I think the whole “incel” thing is basically pretty stupid. But, in this instance, we have 17-year-old who is being classified as an “incel”. Ummmmmmmmm. How many 17-year-olds are basically “involuntarily celibate”? The answer is: “a lot”.

By all means, blame mental illness, or blame various aspects of our debauched society. But “incel”, at that age? That’s a stupid bit of name-calling by the press.

Why does it matter? It’s just tossed around for political points after the internet decides which team the shooter was on.

No pragmatic proposals enacted /enforced by either side.

Someone posted his rants the other day right after the shooting. I’m sure its been scrubbed from the original source by now. Anyone? Bueller?

Did his mother put him in day care at 6 weeks? If so he had heavy likelihood of suffering from terminal grief

Agreed. Their use of the word "incel" is a way to disparage people into thinking their life is meaningless unless they're engaging in modern day hedonism.

It's like preteen boys bragging to each other about how much they're "getting it" when everybody knows it's a lie, but nobody wants to be man enough and admit to their peers that they're all lying.

This reminds me of the DC sniper......fbi profile was a 45 year old White guy (of course).

Turns out they couldn’t have been more wrong.

And yes, we will hear very little of this particular tragedy as it fails to fit the “White people are all evil” narrative.

Here is a 2 minute skit from The Onion about how virtually 100% of 13-year-olds are having sex “all the time”.

Publik Skool students killing other Publik Skool student.

I wonder what the “teachers’ union” thugs think about that.

“Teach your children well....”

Did I also read that the metal detectors at this school had been disconnected?

“...metal detectors were pulled from Antioch High School because they had “unintended consequences.”


This jumped out at me. What were the ‘unintended consequences’?

If I had to guess, I say that black students were getting flagged more often than white students. The racist metal detectors had to be disconnected.

I haven’t looked at the article, but my first thought is that the boy perp wanted to be a girl. These people are a violent bunch.

It should not come as a surprise that many young blacks have low self esteem, a low opinion of their own abilities and potential,and ultimately a belief that they are of little value to the world.

To push their racist identity politics and keep blacks in line democrats have lectured generations of blacks that they are less capable than others and that they cannot have much of a life on their own without government help and handouts.

The message from democrats to young blacks is that you are second class humans.

Who wouldn’t be discouraged being brought up to believe that about yourself?

Where did a 17 year old get a handgun. There ought to be some law to prevent that.

Oh wait.

Never mind.
