Gee…I’d think usually it goes the other way, and a leftist becomes more conservative with age. I wonder what happened to him.

I believe he worked security for Hyles and saw a lot of things first-hand. He now hates all things evangelical/Christian.

This is part of it:

But after that, Trump happened to him. Before the 2016 election campaign, Smellin would occasionally post some evangelical leftist stuff (usually about race, "Jim Crow 2.0," and so forth) that was generally harmless. But he caught a terminal case of TDS.

Interesting. I can’t imagine he saw too many wild scenes doing security at Hyles, but who knows.

So, let's consider some facts... the school where the shooting occurred is a primary school. The shooter who was allegedly bullied for being transgender while attending was 28.

So, someone who can't let go of this comes back after a minimum of 14 years and she's a victim?

I edited this post to reflect the shooter's correct gender.

This is the problem of transgenderism and preferred pronouns. If referring to a TG, is the pronoun used the correct or the preferred one?

Outrage as Trans Resistance Network says Nashville shooter was victim

Daily Mail: "Nashville mass school shooter ... was rejected by her Christian parents who 'couldn't accept' she was gay and trans"

Reuters: "Former Christian school student kills 3 students, 3 staff"

NBC: "Fear pervades Tennessee's trans community amid focus on Nashville shooter's gender identity: 'We were already fearing for our lives. Now, it’s even worse.'"

Benjamin Ryan, NBC reporter: "Nashville is home to The Daily Wire, a hub of anti-trans activity..."​

If a mosque gets shot up, it's Islamophobia.
If a synagogue gets shot up, it's anti-Semitism.
If a gay nightclub gets shot up, it's homophobia.
If a Christian school gets shot up, it's the fault of Christians, parents, transphobes, Republicans, right-wing pundits, and probably Donald Trump.

Basically, blame everyone but the sexually confused, mentally ill psychopath who bought the guns and pulled the trigger.

I have mixed feelings on the use of preferred pronouns. I believe in using the pronouns of the gender God gave a person, but at the same time, if in a corporate situation, if a person clearly requests I use an alternative pronoun, I will acquiesce because sometimes the juice isn’t worth the squeeze. It doesn’t change the fact that I don’t believe in it, but I believe in picking my battles in life, and fighting with a mentally unstable person about a pronoun isn’t a battle I feel like having.

There’s a congressional effort underway to make this act a hate crime. I’m hoping it’s successful, but I’m not betting on it.

The fashionably correct answer is to use the person's preferred pronouns rather than the ones consistent with their actual sex.

"Misgendering" or "deadnaming" (using a transgender person's birth name) are right up there with genocide.

Part of the problem early on was that people weren't really sure which direction the delusion properly ran. Was the shooter a man presenting himself as a woman, or a woman presenting herself as a man? It turned out to be the latter. It always helps clear the confusion to substitute "make-believe" for "trans" in phrases like "trans woman."

The media has bent over backward today to clearly identify the shooter as a woman. I guess the only sin worse than misgendering is making a trans activist look bad because she's a mass murderer of children. I'll bet if we ever get to read her manifesto, it's filled with progressive trans talking points. Which is why the Alphabet Soup doesn't want it published.

I don't want to be the one to pick a fight in the workplace, so I would probably, as much as it depends on me, avoid this person, or talking about him, as much as possible.

The reality is, they're not their pronouns, they're the English language's pronouns. People don't get to demand custom grammar rules for themselves, or regulate my vocabulary for conversations they aren't taking part in. To participate in the gender delusion is to participate in a lie.

It's frankly not much of an identity, if it can't be maintained without the pretence of my validation.

That’s my approach as well. I only use a pronoun when forced in a corner.

I've been busy and missed some of the news . I can always check here and get a view . We need a police officer on duty at every school.

If I was in a conversation with you and you told me that your preferred pronouns are she/her, in what context would I actually use them? Unless I was referring to you in the third person, I would say you just as I have in this post.
