    Regardless of them being trans, the cause is almost always bullying. Be it bullying trans, silent guy/gal, nerds, because they speak weird or any other arbitrary reason. It is almost always is bullying. Not a trans problem. Bullying problem. If shooter was trans, it only means that they were bullied. Nobody would come to school with a gun and shoot people who they been spending time having fun.

      Nobody would come to school with a gun and shoot people who they been spending time having fun.

      Unless they were severely mentally ill. Bullied or not, some people are just broken. Sociopathy is a thing that exists.

      Whether this shooter was trans or not is irrelevant. Focusing on that muddies the waters and makes it harder to nail down and fix the real causes. So of course that’s what the right will do.
