Probably just a coincidence

In the wake of the shooting at the Annunciation Catholic Church School in Minneapolis on Wednesday, we’re confronted with an uncomfortable but inevitable question: Is there some sort of correlation between transgenderism and mass school shootings?

This is, after all, the second time a transgender shooter has claimed lives at a Christian institution in about two years. This time, Robin Westman — born Robert — killed two and injured 17 more before killing himself. In 2023, in the Covenant School shooting, Audrey Elizabeth Hale — who identified as Aiden Hale — killed six and injured two.

What the WJ article does not mention is that both schools were faith-based schools, Catholic and evangelical Protestant respectively. The shootings may represent, in the minds of the queer shooters, revenge on churches which still consider homosexuality and related woke queerness, a sin which cries out to heaven for vengeance. 

Michael Matt, editor of The Remnant newspaper, has more to say about this in his latest video on this weekend's gay invasion of St. Peter's, which we'll repost here tomorrow.
