Deranged Minneapolis gunman Robin Westman blamed his mother for his decision to kill “so many people” at a Catholic school after she warned him that he would regret transitioning to female — while in the next line discouraging people from letting their kids transition.

In his disturbed manifesto, Westman, 23, claimed to be anxious about a visit from his mother in an entry dated July 1, where he recalled her concerns about him transitioning.

“Your words, mother, made me stay in my discomfort unable to ask for help to avoid admitting defeat. You were right mama, but the way you handled it led me to wanting to kill so so many people,” he wrote.

In the rambling writings, the crazed gunman also appeared to blame transitioning and smoking marijuana for his violence.

“Gender and weed f'd up my head,” he claimed. “I wish I never tried experimenting with either. Don’t let your kids smoke weed or change gender until they are like seventeen.”

I think the urinalist used inverse transition spin on this .

He wanted to ask to DEtransition, but it would be admitting defeat. And his mom objected to his DEtransitioning and kept him in his misery

That’s how it reads to me.

This isn’t an exoneration of his mom , it’s the exact opposite.

And the media are masters of inverse translations.

Masters of spin.

Her lawyer probably wrote this and gave it to the media to push.

Spit.

It was the schools and especially the school psychologists who create these monsters with all their ludicrous psychobabble. These fake experts on human behavior belong in jail. Everyone of them is a charlatan with full conscious knowledge of their fakery and money making mental health scam.

These confused children need to universally hear your sex is permanent and anything else is a damaging lie.

More proof the killer was evil. This was a mother trying to do the right thing - and the kid blames her because she didn’t beg him properly? My the monster rot in hell.

I’m waiting for an explanation for the disparity in national media coverage of the Minneapolis shootings at Cristo Rey Church and Annunciation Church, just one day apart from each other.

Could it be that Cristo Rey is a predominantly minority-serving school (over 95% students of color, many from low-income backgrounds)? Or is it that the perp was likely a gang banger?
