Flying in the face of the MSM narrative

With a thank you to Ann Coulter...

Taking into account their percentage of the population, economist John Lott determined that, between 2018 and 2024, transgenders committed a wildly disproportionate number of the mass public shootings -- 6.8 times their share of the population.

A list of high profile mass shootings committed by non-binary identifying individuals:

In 2018, transgender Snochia Moseley, one year into her pre-surgery hormone therapy, shot and killed four people at a pharmaceuticals distribution center in Aberdeen, Maryland.

In 2019, transgender Maya McKinney, born female, but who "identified" as male ("Alec" McKinney), shot nine students, killing one, at a STEM high school in Denver, Colorado, allegedly because they'd mocked her identity.

In 2022, nonbinary ("they/them") Anderson Lee Aldrich opened fire at a gay night club in Colorado Springs, Colorado, killing five.

In 2023, transgender Audrey Elizabeth Hale, who went by "Aiden" and "he/him" and was "miserable being raised a girl," shot up a Christian school in Nashville, Tennessee, killing six, including three children.

In 2024, transgender Genesse Ivonne Moreno fired around 30 rounds from an AK-47 into a Houston, Texas, megachurch before being taken out by a couple of off-duty law enforcement officers.

Just last month, transgender Robin Westman, who changed his name from Robert because, as court documents put it, he "identified as female and wants her name to reflect that identification," fired dozens of rounds from a rifle at the children attending Mass at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, injuring 21 and killing two, ages 8 and 10.

Perhaps this is why the media is so desperate to pin the shooting of Charlie Kirk on right wing Magas.

In any set of events that is not large enough to represent the entire population is is inevitable that the proportion of the people involved who have some specific identifiable characteristic will be larger in that set than in the whole population.

Without more information, including analysing for other subsets (red hair, flat feet, squints, acne, employment status, income, etc.) it is not possible to say how robust the conclusion is.

@ninalanyon Fair. But I am calling attention to the issue with some shocking revelations that aren't being discussed. I'm less interested in the exact percentage, rather calling out the issue since the media is corrupt and biased.

Do you think you could be objective on this issue considering you identify as transgender?

@SumKindaMunster If you aren't interested in 'the exact percentage' why are you claiming that first 'transgenders' (whatever that means to you), and then 'non-binary' are over-represented in mass shooting statistics.

Also:

"4 shooters out of over 300 mass shooters since 2009 are transgender or non binary. That's just 1.3 percent of all shooters," Anthony Zenkus, a lecturer in social work at Columbia University, wrote on Twitter. "You just proved our point: 99 percent of mass shooters in the United States are cis gendered."

According to the Williams Institute research center, around 0.6 percent of Americans over the age of 13 identify as transgender.

@ninalanyon I already answered that question. I'm calling attention to the issue to counter the massive propaganda campaign that the shooter was right wing MAGA.

This article is old, and doesn't reflect the recent shooting by Robin/Robert Westman. In addition, the data point you used starts at 2009. The issue with violent TRA's really didn't start until 10 years later.

Will you answer my question?

Do you think you could be objective on this issue considering you identify as transgender?

@SumKindaMunster Yes I do believe I can be objective on this issue. An American trans person is just as foreign to me as any other American. I owe no allegiance to any of them.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@ninalanyon Why are they different to you? You identify as trans, do you not? What's the distinction?

ninalanyon · 61-69, T

@SumKindaMunster They are different because they are American. The general impression I have is that most Americans of all types are more likely to believe that deadly force is a rational solution to problems than are most Europeans. This is much more important to me than any individual persons gender.

Also the word trans is really not a well defined term. Some people use it to label anyone who is neither cis-gender nor gay. Others restrict it strictly to those who have had gender reassignment surgery, and others to some point in between.

My profile here has a T against it simply because I feel that neither M nor F describe me well enough, not because I believe that I am representative of all those who might label themselves, or be labelled by others, as trans.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@ninalanyon Americans typically are self reliant, and prefer to resolve things themselves, or within their community. They usually don't like the government stepping in to do it for them.

What you interpret as deadly force being a solution is just one possible solution. However, we are not afraid to see that solution happen, or use it ourselves if it comes to that.

Yes, I believe the vagueness around "trans" is purposeful. It's SUPPOSED to be confusing and vague, it makes it easier for more people to accept it. It makes it easier to dismiss accountability for actions like invading women's private spaces or their sports.

Thank you for clarifying your personal reasons for identifying as "trans". I do appreciate hearing alternate opinions and experiences on this, in my opinion, the issue has been hijacked by zealots and crazy people, it's rapidly becoming a dead end.
