The story was quashed as soon as it was revealed that the shooter was transgender


No

I think it’s more of a case America doesn’t care about only 1 dead 6th grader in a school shooting

With highly educated, I meant anyone with a 4-year degree or higher. Maybe should have phrased that better, because that's obviously not actually a super high standard.


Even that must still be pretty rare these days I'd think. Obviously it's a very small percentage of people that are home schooled even smaller again that mom or dad went and got an undergrad then decided they would become a stay at home parent and teach.

The other parent would have to be brining home good bacon, at least here in Canada with the huge increase in home costs, and other daily living expenses. Single income families are dying which is unfortunate because it remove choice and I have nothing against those that would want to be stay at home parents.

You're so confident of your no eh?

Do you think the story would be quashed if it was a white Trump supporter targeting Pakistani kids?

Correct, I don’t think it’s relevant. I didn’t even know the shooter was trans and didn’t read anything about that. Feel free to link

Rather I think the main reason is desensitized to the point where 1 dead kid in a shooting is a cause for celebration relative to how much worse it could have been

You didn't know the shooter was trans because the leftist media you consume never said it.

Reading through the AP article - Yup, they don't mention that he was a transgender.

My point has been proven

Considering your heritage I don't hold being this stupid against you, but really do try to learn ok?

I just googled Iowa shooter and clicked a random link.

I don’t think if he was black, white, brown, gay is relevant to why it didn’t get national attention, when it’s ongoing you don’t know these details

When it was actively going on before identify was known it wasn’t even getting national attention

After the fact it’s obvious why it didn’t get the level of attention as others, only 1 dead child

Quite Dense this morning are we

What you think is so egregiously erroneous that it is contemptable - in fact, it is very clear that that is not your true opinion and that you have a severe implicit bias towards conservatives to the favour of insane far left terrorists

We have clear precedent that if the shooter was a white racist it was be plastered absolutely everywhere, re: anti-black Tops mass shooter in Buffalo, anti-hispanic El Paso mass shooter

My sympathy for any mass shooter is zero

To be clear, when trans shooters go under the radar like the case we discussed in the other thread, I find that equally wrong. Generally speaking, I don’t like shining the spot light on any of the actual shooter identities regardless if maga or black, and would rather shine the light on the victims. Media fascination with the shooter in general is not helping this ongoing problem.

However

Before shooter identify was revealed here, this case still had minimal attention

This is the point you’re dancing around

It did have national attention.

For a day. Because identifying the shooter was trivial.

When it became clear that the story could not be used to push the anti-2A narrative it was shut down.
