Another day, another transsexual mass shooting

From the frozen wastes of the Great No-longer-white North, Agent 3 reports that the Canajan lickspittle meeja were so busy downplaying the chosen gender identity of the tranny who mudered 9 people (including his mother and himself) in Tumbler Ridge BC, that it completely omitted to report a similar mass shooting which occurred yesterday in Rhode Island.

In Pawtucket RI (home of the Pawtucket Patriot Ale), a gunperson who was born male but identified as a woman killed two people and injured three others at a high school hockey match at the Dennis M. Lynch Areana, before turning the gun on himself.

According to local police chief, 56-year-old, the birth name of the shooter was Robert Dorgan, but "We have also learned that the person does go by the name of Roberta and also uses the last name of Esposito."

Mr/Ms/Whatever Dorgan, believed to have been the father of one of the hockey players, sat at the back of the stands on the home team's side during the hockey match before moving to the front and opening fire on four family members and one family friend. He/she/whatever died as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The mother of a student hockey player died inside Lynch Arena, while her child died later at the hospital. Three victims were in critical condition as of last night.

The motive has not been officially established, but police believe it was a targeted shooting that stemmed from a family dispute. Police have not identified the victims, but a different official source told Fox News that the gunman killed his wife and shot three of his children. The similarity with the mass murder in Canada is notable. Not that all transsexuals don't gert along with their families, of course, but... just sayin'.

Another similarity with the Canadian story is the reluctance of the American controllede media to inform their audiences that the shooter was a transsexual. The ultra-liberal-left New York Times, for example, spends 800 words without using the word. The only clue their five (count `em, 5) reporters give us is the quote from the police chief.

Why is the NYT so diffident? Breitbart's John Nolte says that their "lie of omission" of the unpleasant fact -- he calls it "as good as spreading disinformation" --  is due to their desperate desire not to offend their shrinking subscriber base, which (he says) "is made up mostly of intolerant leftists who will cancel their subscription should the Times begin to report truths that make them in any way uncomfortable.

"New York Times readers 1) don’t want to be exposed to anything that makes them uncomfortable, 2) do not want facts published that go against leftist narratives, and 3) do not want the Times to publish any truth that might hurt the leftist cause."

Of course the NYT is not the only media outlet turning a blind eye to the painful truth. Forget about the mainstream media. Before drinking their liberal Kool-Aid [Yes, we know it was actually "Flavor Aid". Ed.] check alternative sources... like WWW. The truth is out there. You just have to look for it.

Walt's message for the Glorious (?) Fourth of July

I trust the import of Ed.'s remark about a bang-up Fourth of July (especially in Baltimore) was no lost on our readers. What can one say about a country in which there have been, on average, ten (count `em, 10) mass murders every July 4th for the last five years.

What can one say about a country whose large cities -- almost all run by Democratic "administrations" -- are unsafe for straight, law-abiding citizens? What can one say about the "blue states" on the east and left coasts whose sane people are fleeing to the unwoke heartland, where there is a chance of living in peace, without having to keep one eye open while sleeping?

Demented Joe Biden's America is broken (and broke, too). You know it. I know it. Even President Brandon -- "God save the queen, man!", his cronies and arse-kissers, and the lickspittle media know it, although they keep pretending everything is OK. 

Walt, Poor Len [and Ed.! Ed.] 
wish our American readers and friends 
Happy Independence Day.

Please join us in prayer...

Agent 3 writes about mass murder in Saskatchewan

Ed. here. Agent 3, who worked for a short while in northeastern Saskatchewan, where, last Sunday, 11 people were stabbed to death (and another 19 wounded) by one man, shares a few thoughts.

In 2017, on the occasion of Canada's sesiquicentennial, the Liberal government declared that "First Nations" -- the people who used to be called "Indians" -- were the rightful owners of the land, and much better people than the white colonialists who built the country up from nothing to one of the top five in the United Nations Human Development Index.

The fact that many of the First Nations lived in poverty on "reserves" in rural areas, rife with unemployment and alcoholism was, the Liberals told us, the fault of us racist white supremacists. We were guilty, guilty, guilty, they told us, of taking Indian children away from their homes, putting them in prison-like residential schools, and trying to make them into white men and women.

So the First Nations became permanent "flavours of the month", forever victims, about whom nothing negative could ever be said, and whose entitlement to the land (and every sort of benefit) was to be proclaimed at the start of every public meeting or ceremony, including hockey games.

Just over 40 years ago I lived and worked for a short time -- it seemed much longer -- amongst the Indians (that word was OK then, so I'll just keep using it) in northeastern Saskatchewan, trying to reconcile their culture with white man's law -- a very difficult task. In those days, life on the "rez" (reserve) was nasty, brutish and short. Seems like it hasn't changed a lot since then.

I refer, in particular, to the James Smith Cree Nation, northeast of Prince Albert, where, last Sunday, a 30-year-old man named Myles Sanderson ran amok, repeatedly stabbing some 30 people, 11 of whom died. They were all Indians, except for one elderly white man who was killed in the village of Weldon, about 20 miles from the rez. 

One of those slain was Damien Sanderson, on the left in the pictures displayed by the Mounties. Damien was Myles' brother, and was initially believed to be his accomplice in a folie à deux.

Exactly what transpired between Myles and Damien Sanderson will never be known, because Myles  died of unknown causes while he was in police custody shortly after being arrested near Rosthern yesterday afternoon. The Mounties had rammed the stolen pickup truck which Myles was driving, pushing it into a ditch, but witnesses said Myles appeared to be alive when loaded onto a stretcher.

Police investigations continue but of course there will be no trial. Many people are saying, even now, that Myles Sanderson got what he deserved, even if the "justice" was administered by the cops rather than the courts. After all, he had already been "dealt with according to the law" many times before. 

He had been in prison -- the Saskatchwan pen is conveniently located at Prince Albert -- more than once. He was once sent to a "healing lodge", to get straightened out in the Indian way. And then back to prison. At the time when Myles went on the rampage, he was on statutory release, meaning he'd done his time and they had to let him go.

Yet the woke politicians and liberal media are already trying to portray Myles Sanderson as the victim! After all, he was an Indian, so whatever he did, whatever happened to him, had to be the fault of white society!

Like many of his peers, he was a hopeless alcoholic and drug addict. That's the white man's fault because drugs and booze were brought to the Indians by white men centuries ago. Although he was never sent to a residential school, just as American blacks are still suffering because their ancestors were slaves, everyone knows that the adverse effects on the psyche can be handed down through the generations.

The Liberal party line is that we white folks have a duty to make things right with the Indians. If they're going to heal, we have to heal them! How? By making life on the rez better -- building houses for them, paving the roads, and (of course) giving still more money for "community projects" and other types of welfare.

My question is: how do you help those who can't or won't help themselves? If getting educated, working hard, and striving to improve your lot in life are "white virtues", then I would suggest that the residential schools were not wrong to try to inculcate those virtues into the children placed in their care. I could go on, but political correctness forbids.... 

"Summer of rage" = Civil War v 2.0? - NOT a new idea!

This morning's headlines... 

1 dead, 5 critically wounded after shooting at church in gun-controlled California 

2 killed, 3 injured after shooting at busy Houston flea market 

33 Shot During Weekend in Mayor Lori Lightfoot's Chicago

Biden: Buffalo shooting "racially motivated act of white supremacy and violent extremism"

And so it begins... No. That should be: And so it continues.

President Brandon, and all the other liberal loonies acting like this weekend's mass murder in  Buffalo is something new (and obviously the fault of President Trump!) seem to have forgotten about "race riots" (as they were called in more innocent times) in:

Detroit - June 1943 - President FDR (Democrat)

Watts - August 1965 - President LBJ (Democrat), the great champion of equal rights and "freedom now"

Newark - July 1967 - President LBJ (again)

Detroit - July 1967 - aka the 12th Street Riot, aka the Detroit Rebellion - President LBJ (yet again) 

I don't remember the 1943 event very well, but the Detroit Rebellion is clear in my mind. You could see the smoke from across the river in Canada, which is where sensible Americans went to wait it out. And of course there was the TV news. Images of mobs of black people (they weren't "Black", back then) in the streets, protesting discrimination and racism, demanding equality and justice...

...and maybe doing a bit of "reparations shopping". Of course it wasn't called that, in those more innocent days. It was called "looting", `cause that's what it was! Martin Luther King would be horrified, I think, to see what's being done nowadays, in his name and in the name of "justice".

"No justice, no peace!" That's what they're yelling now. In the long hot summer of 1967, it was "Burn, baby, burn!" The point of yesterday's  post was to predict another long hot summer, a "summer of rage". Lifetime pct .991. 

I think now that I should have added "and riots" to that phrase. But the message was clear enough for our sponsor to call to let us know that a civil war between blacks and "others" was predicted in  the January 1980 "Fantasy Issue" of National Lampoon, "the Humor Magazine for Adults". Check this out!

This excellent piece of satire, written by John Hughes and superbly drawn by George Evans, could never be published today. The editors would probably report the creators to the Department of Homeland Security's new "Disinformation Governance Board", so they could be re-educated in a pleasant summer camp somewhere in Alaska.

Fortunately, the DHSDGB has not yet been able to destroy the archives of National Lampoon and other politically incorrect publication. Our sponsor has made a .pdf file of this prescient piece, which you can buy for only $2.00. Hard copy is also available. Tell `em Walt sent ya!

UPDATED: "Allahu akbar!" at Boulder?

Here are the bare bones of this horrendous story. 

Yesterday in Boulder, Colorado, a gunman entered a King Sooper supermarket and shot dead ten (10) people, including one policeman. 

Boulder police had now identified the sole suspect, taken into custody after being wounded, as Ahmad Al Aliwi Al Issa, pictured at left. 

Police have not released a motive. Nor have they said anything about the suspect's nationality, ethnicity, status in the USA or religion. 

Whether or not they will divulge any of this information is uncertain. Mustn't stoke the fires of Islamophobia, you know. Meanwhile, Americans are drawing their own conclusions. 

Walt awaits comment from the Face in Front of the Curtain at the White House. Behind the curtain, the puppeteers are working feverishly to devise a way to blame this (as they have blamed last week's mass shooting of Asian "masseuses" in Atlanta) on President Trump. Stay tuned.

One further comment: A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

UPDATE ADDED at 1600: Walt is watching the lamestream media spin the story to avoid giving any details that would suggest that the shooter is a follower of the prophet. 

Here are the first two paragraphs of the AP follow-up posted about an hour ago: 

"Police on Tuesday identified a 21-year-old man as the suspect who opened fire inside a crowded Colorado supermarket, and court documents showed that he purchased an assault weapon less than a week before the attack that killed 10 people, including a police officer. 

"Supermarket employees told investigators that Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa [sic] shot an elderly man multiple times Monday outside the Boulder grocery store before going inside, according to the documents. Another person was found shot in a vehicle next to a car registered to the suspect’s brother." 

CBC News, Canada's Liberal government-owned broadcaster ran the first paragraph, but skipped the second, going straight to the names of the victims! Wonder why... Might have something to do with not giving the shooter a "platform" for whatever views he might hold. (Can you say "jihad", boys and girls?) 

Then comes a piece from the Daily Caller, headlined: "Facebook Confirms It Deleted Account For Suspected Boulder Shooter Containing Posts About Islam, Trump". How about that... But the Caller says it "did not identify any content on the Facebook page that suggested a motive for the shooting Monday during a review of the account prior to its removal." So Mr Al Issa was a Muslim, OK, but not one of those nasty ones intent on killing all infidels. He was just a little mixed up, is all. 

For a more realistic portrait of the killer, you need to go to Jihadwatch, which reported this afternoon "Brother of Boulder jihad mass murderer detained, along with other family members". 

Robert Spencer writes: "...it is noteworthy that the establishment media continues to spell the killer's name 'Alissa', which of course is a common first name for women in the U.S. and thus gives the impression that he is an American non-Muslim, when the shooter himself spelled it 'Al Issa'. Are 'journalists' trying to obscure the fact that he is a Muslim migrant ISIS sympathizer? Of course they are."

To here Sleepy Joe and the Democrats [sounds like a 60's folk group. Ed.] talk about the "incident", it all proves the urgency of passing laws to take away Americans' guns. All of them. Right now. And that's all there is to it....

Annapolis mass murder not Trump's fault - media types disappointed

This is an update of Walt's bare-bones report on the mass murder at the offices of the Capital-Gazette, in Annapolis MD, first posted just after 1700. At that point the body count was 5 dead and 7 wounded, some seriously. Local cops were keeping shtum about the suspect they had taken into custody, supposedly because he had mutilated his fingertips making it difficult to identify him by fingerprints.

Similarly, nobody was saying anything about the shooter's possible motivation. I suggested three possibilities:

- Crazed Islamic terrorist protesting President Trump's "Muslim ban", upheld Tuesday by the Supreme Court. But there are no reports of shouts of "Allahu akbar!" being heard.

- Crazed anti-Trumper protesting President Trump's "Muslim ban" after hearing the ladies of The View denigrate the ban, the President, and SCOTUS, all in one breath.

- Crazed... something or somebody else... maybe an ex-employee who went postal. Who knows?

The (((controlled media))) were quick to jump to the first or second conclusion, leaning to the second when it was learned that the killer was a white man. All too typical was Rob Cox, Global Editor for Thomson Reuters' Breakingviews who tweeted (@rob1cox): "This is what happens when @realDonaldTrump calls journalists the enemy of the people. Blood is on your hands, Mr. President. Save your thoughts and prayers for your empty soul."

Imagine the consternation of Mr Cox (and all the other liberal meeja types who were writing their own similar messages) when the shooter was revealed, by the Baltimore Sun, the owners of the Capital-Gazette, to be 38-year-old "Jarrod W. Ramos, a man with a longstanding dispute with the newspaper." Mr Ramos filed a defamation lawsuit against the paper and one of its columnists in 2012.

Mr Cox has since deleted his tweet and acknowledges "jumping to a conclusion." Although Mr Ramos appears not to be an ex-employee of the newspaper, I think my third guess is close enough to raise my lifetime pct to .989. Keep that in mind any time you want to know what's really going on.

What motivates mass murderers?

Even leaving aside the almost daily attacks by Islamic jihadis, mass murders have been much in the news lately.

A couple of days ago, a Canadian aviation "expert" said he was "100% certain" that the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 -- still undiscovered somewhere at the bottom of the Indian Ocean -- was an extreme case of murder-suicide, perpetrated by the plane's pilot. Last month, 10 people were killed and 16 wounded by a young Toronto man who for some reason decided to drive a rented man down the sidewalk of a busy main street.

And in the USA, there are "school shootings", not in the ghettos of Los Angeles, Chicago, or Detroit, but in white(ish) locales in states like Florida (Parkland) and Texas (Santa Fe). The massacre at Columbine happened just over 19 years ago. Since then, there have been hundreds, hundreds of similar "incidents".

Why do people kill dozens, scores or even hundreds of innocent people? What is their motivation for mass murder? These are questions I ask myself every time something like this happens. It seems to me that only two reasons are possible. Someone who would commit such an atrocity must either be:

A - a fanatical follower of the Religion of Peace (read: Islam) or some other extremist religious and/or political group; or

B - someone whose cheese has slipped off his cracker (read: a psychotic individual).

In "Toronto killer of 10 'seemed a little off'... that's all", the perpetrator of the recent massacre in Canada's Proudly Diverse City is described as "kind of a loner, kept to himself, and 'seemed a little off'." Later it emerged that he identified himself as an "incel" -- "involuntarily celibate" -- someone who couldn't score with women and so decided to take his frustration out on the world.

The Santa Fe TX high school student who allegedly opened fire on his classmates on yesterday has been described as "a quiet and unassuming teenager who enjoys sports and showed few if any warning signs of violent behaviour." He was a member of a dance group at a local Greek Orthodox church and an avid videogame player, known among his classmates mostly for playing on the school's junior varsity football team. A teammate told a Houston TV station, "He stuck to himself. He had a few friends but never really talked to many people. For him to do something like this, it's crazy."

Exactly! But how did those young men -- they are always young men -- become "crazy"? And how are we supposed to protect ourselves and our communities against the crazy behaviour that kills?

To guard against Islamic terrorists, the authorities tell us "If you see something, say something!" But that doesn't work in the case of people like Deimitrios Pagourtzis, the Sante Fe High School killer. The only odd thing that people noticed about him was that he liked to wear a trench coat, even in the Texas heat. What are you gonna do, call 9-1-1 and tell them "my classmate keeps coming to school in a trenchcoat!"?

For that very reason, stricter gun controls won't work, unless America can be turned into some kind of liberal Utopia in which no-one, absolutely no-one has a gun, which seems highly unlikely, to put it mildly. And if that were so, what is to stop a crazy man [or woman! Ed.] from finding another weapon... like a rental van. If you have a good answer to my question, something that doesn't involve locking up every oddball and eccentric in the land, please tell the world... quick!!!
