Would you care about the 200 people who died? Not in the slightest. You'd just be pleased as punch that it was a transexual who committed the murders...it'd also give you something to talk about.
And, what would it prove? That some trans people have mental issues? No shit! Some (insert literally any category of people) have mental issues. It certainly doesn't surprise me that some trans people have mental issues; when you combine the social ostracizing with the sexual abnormality that they immediately present, it certainly stands to reason that they wouldn't all be balanced.
My concern would be more along the lines of society failing to see the signs that this person would become an indiscriminate killer, annihilating 200 people with an explosive, and not collectively finding some way to prevent that. I'd tend to be a bit more concerned about them killing 200 people than being a transexual.
The conservatives here would just be thrilled that the perpetrator was a transexual.
How does celebrating murder feel? You guys feel good about yourselves when you're celebrating people being murdered?
I'll help you understand then.
Conservatives are not "thrilled" if a transgender person commits a mass shooting.
When this occurs, conservatives note two things, both of which are serious matters which are worth discussing:
1) The mainstream media goes out of their way to hide the fact that the shooter was transgender.
2) There is a much higher incidence of mental illness within the transgender community than the general population. The left has hand waved this away as simply a PTSD-type reaction to years of intolerance and discrimination, but I don't think that's correct. There have been (and currently are) many highly oppressed groups in world history, yet these groups did not suffer from a higher degree of mental illness. The problem is that the left is terrified that people will come to see transgenderism as a form of mental illness, and thus they shut down any discussion of why mental illness is so prevalent in that community.
In general, it bothers me when the media tries to suppress details of a story (or suppress the story itself) because it might cause people to think the "wrong" thing.
If the killer here really was transgender, this should be part of the article. We shouldn't have to wonder and guess about it. That's what's become so sad about today's media. We know that whether the killer was transgender or a biological female, it won't be mentioned in the articles.
Remember the Turpin case, where a white, Christian, heterosexual couple starved, beat, chained up, and abused their 12 children, and were finally caught? That was a major national news story, and rightfully so.
However, a similar but worse story occurred shortly afterwards -- also in California. A liberal activist lesbian couple adopted six black children from various bad situations, paraded them around social media so the women could get kudos from all their left wing followers, and then were secretly beating and starving the children behind closed doors. They kept moving every time people in the neighborhood began to suspect things and report them to CPS. Furthermore, notoriously left-leaning CPS dropped the ball in multiple states, giving the women the benefit of the doubt multiple times (despite the kids clearly being malnourished and tiny for their age, while being genetically unrelated), because the women were liberal and lesbian. Finally, with the hammer about to come down, they drugged the kids, and intentionally drove everyone off a cliff, killing themselves and all 6 kids. This should have also been a huge story, but it got little airtime. Why? Because the media didn't want people to get the "wrong" idea about gay people adopting children, nor make you think too much about the hypocrisy of many left wing social media activists, so the story was hardly covered.
In short, my wondering about the shooter being transgender was criticism of the media, and not transgender people as a whole.
