I take it more as the level of this persons mental issues was evident and something should have been done. The article doesn’t even mention trans at all.

We should be informed of the information around these cases and not bury our heads from viewing information. It’s hard to refute or understand events in a vacuum. I don’t see this as shaping things…he clearly has SS bolts on his arm.

7. That's probably why there's been little discussion about this shooting relative to other mass shootings on the forum.
