perhaps the manifesto would support the contention that the transgender movement is protecting a mental illness that needs to be treated and in many cases committed to mental institutions. Anyone claiming to be something he/she isn’t definitely is a mental case.

Dangerous obviously means that he was an in your face Rat Party stooge.If it was anything that could be spun to look like support for DJT it would have been leaked to Politico by now.

“What I was told is, her manifesto was a blueprint on total destruction, and it was so, so detailed at the level of what she had planned,” Metro Nashville Council Member Courtney Johnston told the NY Post, without elaborating. “That document in the wrong person’s hands would be astronomically dangerous,” she added.

Astronomically dangerous for whom? There are multiple sound reasons not to release the docs unredacted (including denying the murderer any posthumous fame or martyrdom). It makes me nervous that instead of explaining those good reasons, the FBI, etc., have propped up this Courtney Johnston to present “scary” hearsay of zero value, since she admits to having no direct knowledge. If she hasn’t seen the material, she is spewing whatever bilge LE told her to spew.

That creates suspicion that LE is hiding something dangerous to themselves, or that they don’t want the public to know about the Dem’s transexual heroes. It would seem possible to redact the document as much as necessary to protect any named individuals, suppress operational techniques, and deny copycats any istructional info.

To know the pool of Kool-Aid from which the shooter was drinking. The shooter didn’t come up with these ideas in a vaccuum, the shooter picked this up somewhere, from someone.

No, the most obvious reason is to avoid exposing how much hatred the trans community has towards conservatives and especially Christians.

Who gives a flip what this child murderer wrote? Burn it and piss on his/her/its grave.

The FBI and the DNC; after all, they are the ones who coached and paid her!

I was thinking something similar. Perhaps her manifesto has names of accomplices, future actions…

Why does the FBI have the documents?

Murder is not a Federal crime.

The only reason this council person thinks the manifesto is dangerous is because she knows that most trannies and their friends are just as psychotic as Hale was.

One of them, or maybe a group of them, is going to realize her fears with or without the manifesto. They have already gotten permission and encouragement from the Dem leadership and the MSM.

Just about the only thing that would make sense here is some sort of very persuasive and detailed (instructions and tactics) call to widespread violence against schools that could either:

Result in such violence B4 authorities can take preventive steps. Or,

Result in widespread attacks on those the “instructions” were directed to. Sort of “preventive vigilante actions”.(Much harder to prevent. However, I really doubt that would happen in the US, tho’ some parties might well fear it could. Personally, I think organized citizen defenses of school locations would be more likely if there seemed to be a serious large scale threat to schools.) OR,

Result in widespread pulling of students from schools by fearful parents.

Either way, IF authorities really believe there is good reason to not release the manifesto, we citizens deserve at least a reasonable explanation, such as “we are very concerned about other potential attackers finding details in this manifesto useful.”

About 20 journals, five laptops, a suicide note, and other materials written by Hale
= = =

How many guns did ‘she’ have?

Reported as 7, and used 3.

Compare with:

20 journals - too many, need to limit purchase and possession of journals. And what was the writing tool? Pens EEK, pencils EEK - ban them!

five laptops - who needs this many? Limit to one (monitored by fbi)

etc.

Mostly agreed, but then if you end up with a document 75% redacted (LE is going to be very “proactive” in that way) then that creates a whole new controversy...

At the very least, some independent entity not overly connected to any side of the tranny controversy(s) or this particular case should be asked to review the question of the release of the “manifesto” if Nashville LE continues without good explanation to block said release.

Here’s an exercise for the reader: you’ve read the news, now write in your own words what you think the perp’s manifesto says.
= = =

Oh, good idea. And ask ChatAI what it says.
