Nashville Christian school shooting - Where's The Manifesto?
[ZERO] This has been ineffably sad for the family and friends of the victims, who are victims themselves, their grief often overwhelmed in a city, indeed a country, now so politicized that our common humanity seems some distant memory from a long ago Jimmy Stewart movie one sees only at Christmas.
Lost too in all this is any sense of what really happened that Monday or why it happened.
Distraction reigns.
The last few days have been arguably the mother of all distractions when, as reported here at The Epoch Times and virtually everywhere, riots or protests (depending on how you see them) broke out in front and within the Tennessee State Assembly.
The rioters/protestors were largely high school students, bent on gun control, instigated, at least in part, by three members of the assembly, two of whom have now been expelled for their behavior.
Unfortunately for the local GOP and Republicans everywhere, the two expelled, deservedly or not, happened to be black, naturally providing a propaganda opportunity for our resident White House "civil rights activist" and ally of former Sen. Robert Byrd (D-N.C.) who once informed us "If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black."
Meanwhile, the tragic murders are being used inevitably as a battering ram for gun control that has never been shown to work and for red flag laws that can work, but not in the way intended.
Which brings me to the missing "manifesto."
In the immediate aftermath of the murders the police informed us the obviously emotionally disturbed shooter was transgendered, something that was ratified by the video of the killings at the Christian school showing the female-by-birth Audrey Hale dressed entirely like a macho terrorist.
Further, they told us she had left behind documents and a manifesto, explaining her actions.
Then, as if by magic, we heard no more of the word transgendered in any of its forms, from the media or anywhere, nor, almost simultaneously, anything of the manifesto, except that it had been handed to the FBI for review.
Regarding the media, it isn’t just CBS, widely known to have decreed the word "transgender" should be omitted in coverage of the crime but almost all of the MSM. NPR, recently labeled "state-affiliated" on Twitter, does not mention the word in its recent update on the crime, nor does it apply a pronoun of any sort—male, female, or "they"—when referring to the shooter. This must be a new form of asexual reporting.
As for the FBI, no word so far on when they will release the manifesto, in original or redacted form.
Sound familiar?
