This is what I have also concluded. Mental illness is at what we are talking about here, and so it is no surprise that the person should do something that a mentally ill person would do.
Not even sure where to start here with this person. But the next call will be to end christian schools because the Bible represses LGBTQ+- while satanic after school clubs start to rise. Remove God remove morals and threats of what happens in the afterlife, just as my good friend Chad stated.
That has already happened. There is some extreme leftist pro-gender affirmation group that has published a letter about this very topic. It is absolutely INSANE and RIDICULOUS!
I wanted to post a picture of the statement here, but substack doesn't permit images in comments. You can, however, read the statement from the Trans Resistance Network in an article from the Post Millennial (and other places - access to the TRN's twitter feed is "protected", so I can't link that directly):
You write beautifully; even when the subject matter is as difficult as the murders of these three nine yr. old students and the three over sixty adults, your words are pleasantly placed together for clarity of interpretation of meaning. Thank you, and I will try to comment more on this post later.
We have come to a point where so many of our mental health experts have stopped providing real counseling for mental health problems. So many now just affirm and provide drugs to make you feel better. They stopped telling us the long lists of medications these shooters are usually on some time ago. My guess though is this person had list with drugs that would affect her ability to reason.
This may upset some people, but I think many of our mental health experts are encouraging the behavior rather than treating it. They encourage transgenders to indulge their delusions or, instead of providing helpful therapy, as you pointed out, they throw unproven and potentially dangerous pharmaceuticals at the patient.
Well expressed. All highly relevant concerns. In Nashville and all across the nation we have highly confused and mentally unstable churches and schools (to put it mildly). We have reckless transgenderism of children being pushed by those who should be charged as child abusers. The transgender movement is riddled with violence. This is all politically mandated and yet most are unaware. When the inmates are running the asylum we do not have far to go.
We should also consider the consequences of giving large doses of testosterone to a depressed and mentally ill individual. Hormones are very power substances that cause mental as well as physical changes. To prescribe a treatment likely to cause additional problems--including anger and hostility--to someone who is potentially suicidal, depressed and unstable seems foolish and dangerous.
Absolutely! Pharmaceuticals are rarely the best solution for psychological and spiritual maladies. ALL pharmaceuticals have side effects, and most of the ones used for psychiatric relief have the most atrocious effects on mental state, which is a recipe for disaster with someone already suffering a disorder.
I am in total agreement that giving hormone replacement drugs to people that are already emotionally unstable is not just dangerous but foolish as well and borders on criminal. It can certainly be argued that it goes against the "do no harm" oath that medical professionals take. There are places and times for meds in the treatment of any number of mental health conditions. Sadly, most doctors do not communicate with each other while treating the same patient and that person ends up with all kinds of funky drug interactions. And they aren't paying attention to that stuff. Most of the mental patients WANT that reaction to alter their reality. And they certainly aren't going to tell their doctors that it's happening UNLESS they end up in the hospital.
My Mom is a trained psychologist and I grew up around this stuff from the time I was 6 or 7 years old. I actually looked into going into social work myself at one point but realized it was NOT my cup of tea after a 6 month stint at a group home for severely abused children when I was in my early 20s. Their stories broke my heart and I was ready to wipe their parents off the face of the Earth for what they had done to their kids. I say this to say, I have seen all kinds of scenarios over the course of my life. There is just so much to unravel with each case. And it has gotten to the point that there is NO mental health counselling and they just shove more drugs at the people that need to TALK to someone about the problems they have without being "affirmed".
I remember in the late 70s into the early 80s there was a push to get rid of the labeling of mentally ill people. The term "Card Carrying Crazy" actually came from the fact that people with mental health problems CARRIED A CARD explaining the condition they had along with any medications and emergency contacts. These cards were intended for police and EMS to know how to deal with them when they were called to do so. But some jackleg bureaucrat decided it was wrong to place such a stigma on those mentally ill patients so the cards went away.
It wasn't long that mental health services started to be cut. And eventually there were basically NO mental health services provided by the state. The only care you could find was through the private sector. People are screaming for the government to implement socialized health care in the US, but this is what you get when the government sticks it's nose in business it has NO BUSINESS being in! People do NOT get the care they TRULY need because some IDIOT that was put in a position of authority, that they were never qualified to be in to begin with, starts making arbitrary rules because THEY don't like how it currently is. Never mind that the current system actually works. They feel that it is imperative that they fix what isn't broken.
You have covered the fact that we have entered a time where we have a godless society. People started screaming about having freedom FROM religion rather than freedom OF religion and the fools that we voted in to legislate around these issues actually did NOTHING to help. They encouraged this NONSENSE of being without God.
Thankfully not ALL of our society has lost their senses. There ARE enough of us left that DO believe in THE One True God and His ability to heal this nation, or at the very least, to deliver His followers to start a NEW country that doesn't cater to the CRAZY of the leftist controlled areas.
Pardon my rant. I should have written my own post about this. ;-)
Thank you! Well said, I just can’t see how anyone can refute this logic.
...but they will anyway.
they might try! The deluded and broken will never come around
It has been confirmed that the shooter was, indeed, suicidal. Another commonality with other school shootings.

Prediction: the school will be blamed for the kid's trauma and he will be made out to be the victim.
I'm waiting for it already.
