I don't care if you want to take your genitals off, stitch them for your forehead, and identify as the queen or king, or even the kieen/quing, of Omicron Persei 8... you don't put a freaking CHILD through some shooting spree. Why the hell did they not leave the kid with someone before this?

Edit: You know what... kid was probably an intended human shield. Guess it didn't work.

Sure, once I saw there was a trans/internationalist/racial twist, I figured the mainstream media would prefer to abandon it, but the high-profile nature of the church and bringing a kid hostage into a terrorist attack seemed like it would make it impossible to do that.

Seems like a really messy backstory, according to a local news outlet:
https://www.khou.com/article/news/lo...8-e413d3b763e3

Maybe the alias was just a fake name and the shooter was biologically born female and identified as such the whole time?

Right, like.... there's a little something for everybody here!
You've got your right wing "SEE?! These people ARE nuts and we keep telling you!" as well as your left wing "SEE! These right wing churches hate people and now they are reaping what they sew!"

But I think Cowabunga-Gal's meme above said it best to be honest...

Just wanted to point out that Fox News has been the #1 cable news network for the last eight years.

You're watching "mainstream media." You're reading "mainstream media."

You're consuming the most mainstream of mainstream media.

They're not the "alternative." They're the standard.

And IMO Joel Osteen is a giant grifting POS, but he is an amazing showman. A greasy one, but still. Captivating to watch.

Yeah heard about this few days ago. Already knew it would get zero media attention. Why would the mainstream media wanna break their own narrative of “the transgender community is under attack”? In reality it is Christianity that has been under attack by leftwing. Shooter was probably radicalized by mainstream media narrative. That’s why this story is buried and you only hear about it on platforms like X/Twitter. Mainstream news outlets worship satan, they probably more concerned about the shooter being “dead-named” or whatever, while (D) politicians too busy putting baphomet statues in state capitols.

The more I read about this the more confusing it is. Are we SURE this is a transgender?
