So hormone imbalance is not an issue in your opinion. So why is the fact the shooter was trans an issue?

we will get verification and find out more if the manifesto is ever released, but if it quacks like a duck it most likely is a duck.

because it was an anti-Christian hate crime.

It's like asking why the fact that the Tops mass murderer was white is an issue

you need to do better than that, even if this so called manifesto comes out and this person was in a fit of rage against christianity and did the attack strictly because they believe they were helping some sort of lgbt cause, it would be nothing more than a murderer making up bullshit to justify their need to murder

LGBT people do not advocate violence against their opressors, the argument you are trying to set up does not work the way you think its going to

takes a special kind of person trying to exploit this for their personal gun agenda - based on nothing but speculation. especially considering how so many mass shooting were committed with ar-15s, and every common sense evaluation suggests they would have been significantly less lethal had assault weapon bans been in place...

okay I thought we would have a serious discussion but I guess not

yes that is what a murder hate crime is

again i state, even if this was a hate crime and the evidence shows it undeniably, what should we do about this?

While no reason could ever justify this--the possibility that it is such retaliation makes my heart ache just that much more.
