Transgender Mass Murderer Targets Christian School – Kills Six

-

ANALYSIS – None dare call it hate. The recent horrific mass killing in Nashville is even more tragic when we understand who the killer was – and how the mass has either ignored or downplayed her ‘trans' identity.

Or has made it a point of calling her a man rather than a mentally ill woman.

It's also tragic, no – outrageous – that none in the establishment media, or or anyone in his administration, has labeled the shooting a ‘hate ' even though it was.

Local has called it a targeted attack against a Christian school.

The heavily armed 28-year-old mass murderer Audrey Hale who committed the massacre at Covenant School used two AR-style rifles and a pistol to kill three 9-year-old children and three adults. (RELATED: Nashville Shooting Highlights Need For Mental Health Reforms)

Reportedly a former student, she was was killed by police. 

Her ‘manifesto,' discovered at her home, has still not been made public.

The killer was first reported correctly as a woman.

Then the media fell all over itself apologizing for its mistake and quickly began stealth editing its initial reports and started calling her a ‘transgender male' (which in most cases is actually a female claiming to be male).

It is now mostly downplaying the trans issue and the fact that she was being treated for 'emotional' issues.

And unlike the rhetoric often employed by Democrats after a shooter targets any minority community – like an LGBTQ club or killings simply in a neighborhood with a high number of Asian Americans – they aren't calling this a ‘hate crime.'

The left is usually very quick to identify any crime it can committed by white conservatives, MAGA Republicans or supporters.

Sometimes it is valid. Most of the time it is not.

As my Georgetown roommate, and colleague, Quin Hillyer writes in the Washington Examiner:

The message is clear: The media will bend over backward to kowtow to transgender ideology when it benefits the gender bender yet will also do backflips to hide a transgender status if somebody might draw negative inferences. Too bad the media honchos aren't concerned about contributing to inaccurate characterizations of conservative people as dangerous and unhinged.

First, let me be clear, most conservatives despise the ‘hate crime' moniker because, well, a crime is a crime. Murder isn't more of a murder because of the races or identities of the victims or perpetrators.

But if you are going to use the term and have it impact how cases are investigated, tried and suspects are sentenced, then call this what it was – a hate crime against Christians by a lunatic transgender person.

Federal law considers violence that causes bodily injury to a person to be a hate crime if it is motivated by race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or disability.

Of course, the fact that this killer was ‘trans' shouldn't become the sole focus, nor should it be used to unfairly label other trans persons.

But it should be noted by the media and included in the entire process.

And the targeting of Christians by a trans person should be a major focus. (RELATED: Biden Cracks Joke About Christians Following Tennessee School Shooting)

Senator Josh Hawley, R-Mo., who has opposed hate crime legislation in the past as too broad, quickly took action to ensure this anti-Christian hate crime perpetrated by a self-described transgender was treated as such.

He called on federal authorities Tuesday to investigate Monday's massacre as a hate crime against Christian believers.

The New York Post reported:

In a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Homeland Security Secretary , Hawley described Audrey Hale's rampage through the Tennessee school that left three adults and three 9-year-old children dead as a “targeted” assault “against Christians” and called for “the full resources of the federal ” to be deployed to determine why the 28-year-old former student carried out the heinous crime. 

It is commonplace to call such horrors ‘senseless violence.' But properly speaking, that is false,” Hawley writes. “Police report that the attack here was ‘targeted' — targeted, that is, against Christians.”

“I urge you to immediately open an investigation into this shooting as a federal hate crime. The full resources of the federal government must be brought to bear to determine how this crime occurred, and who may have influenced the deranged shooter to carry out these horrific crimes.

Now, let's see how Team Biden and the establishment media react.
