It’s pretty much confirmed at this point that Covenant School shooter Audrey Hale was transgender, although we’ll bet the mainstream media keeps deadnaming him in its reporting. Hale was apparently trying to get a jump on the Trans Day of Vengeance:
A point of clarification, especially for national media who were not in Nashville for that last press conference — Audrey Hale used he/him pronouns but was assigned female at birth. @alexistmarshall confirmed this info on the scene. The latest: https://t.co/BOu3qUhx7x

Hey, remember that thing about a “Trans Day of Vengeance” on April 1?

The shooting certainly has raised the visibility of the trans community, which California State Sen. Scott Wiener reminds us is at “war.”
As we start Transgender Week of Visibility — a week to uplift our trans siblings — red states continue to all but ban trans people from existing.
Latest: On Friday, Idaho enacted a law banning trans kids from using restrooms per their gender.

Your unwillingness to help mental illness cost the lives of three children today.
TO BE CLEAR, the problem isn't trans people, the problem isn't guns, the problem is POLITICIANS LIKE YOU using the beforementioned as political pawns.

Flawless timing, groomer.

Ask Nashville how the war on trans is going

Today is not the day. One of these transgenders literally just shot up an elementary school. The war against schools continues at the hands of transgenders. We were upset that they were teaching transsexualism in kindergarten classrooms and now they're shooting them up.

We are trying to protect kids from adults that are obsessed with their sexuality.
Why does that bother you?

To lift up trans ppl, you tell them their entire existence is threatened if bathrooms are separated by biological gender
wonder if that lifts them up, or if it just scares & confuses (gaslights) them to incite em to violence
(if its the latter, ur def waging war on trans ppl)

We figure President Biden’s already got his Transgender Week of Visibility video shot.
