Right-wing media claimed the shooter was trans.
At what point do we admit that this is no longer "free speech" but instead incitement to violence?
Of course they did. They do that every single time there’s a mass shooting now, which is daily.
another trans shooter
Pretty sure there's been a grand total of like... a single trans shooter? As opposed to almost every other which has been... cis white male, who probably watches the programs that claim he was a trans shooter
- Pretty sure they tried to do this with the Texas concert shooter too
- This has been a common tactic for the right going back as far as there have been mass shootings. They will always claim the shooter is part of some out-group, while simultaneously cheering for mass murder. Then they will bring out """"crime statistics"""" about how black and Latino people are the real mass shooters, so a white shooter doesn't count because reasons.
Reich wingers can't read. Its disgusting how they just make shit up and every reich winger just believes them and joins the hate parade.
You just can't talk to these people. They live in a different reality and nothing you say or do will make them change their mind.
- It's not even a question of reading comprehension, they push out misinformation anytime a big news story happens.
  
  Because it works and wastes our time.
So, nothing new on the right wing scene - up is down, right is wrong - "Gray had threatened a mass shooting, posting an image of a family holding signs showing support for their trans daughter, and writing, “I need to put an end to that. … im on the edge of a lgbtq massacre.”"
They didn't "misinterpret" any fucking thing. They are shit people who want to tear down the US for money.
- What's wrong with wanting to tear down the US?
  
  Some of us live here?
It's always white chuds
It's the guns, don't get distracted by this noise.
How many transgender mass-shooters have there even been? Zero? One?
I assume they just spew this fake news in order to make people hear "trans shooter" over and over again until they think it's a pattern.
The right wing continues to show they are incapable of rational thought and just eat up everything handed to them and react on base instinct and impulsivity alone.
This is how you define an animal. And as a peaceful society we usually deem animals that become dangerous to society as a threat that must be removed by one means or another.
