Mass shooting at high school in Tumbler Ridge BC - Nine dead 27 injured

[CdnFox]

Nine people killed, 27 injured in Tumbler Ridge mass shooting | Vancouver Sun

Obviously details are light and subject to change but it appears that an unidentified female has killed nine people and then shot herself for 10 total dead. Some are critically injured.

Most of the shootings happen at a high school but not all of them. There's no word as to whether or not the shooter was a teacher or a student 

Pretty freaking horrible. We'll see as more details come out what happened here

Once again, we see what appears to be the absolute dishonest madness of the trans crowd. Female mass shooters are incredibly rare, and all the news reports on this being a female appear to be playing to not "misgendering" what appears to be a trans person, aka a dude who thinks he is a woman. 

So, if true, we can never get a truthful, honest account of who actually did these things because anytime the media says it was a female, we have to wonder if it was really a female or a dude they don't want to misgender.

That's what got me looking deeper too... there was clearly a deliberate I/O ring to the reporting.

Here's a bit more information from locals who knew the shooter. 

Caution though...  the media credibility here (based on reviews) is mixed. 

Here's another from a family member..

When things like this happen, the thing to do is try to figure out why. Society is filled with people who have mental/emotional problems who don't get treated. That is a major issue. A subset of that is the way we coddle people. If your delusions are never challenged, despite you being aware on some level that they're entirely fictional, that's just going to cause you further mental health problems. Men who think they're women need mental health treatment, not affirmation.

And the way we're encouraging this in children is disgusting and disgraceful and certain to encourage more of this.

A simple way out of the confusion here and everywhere else would be to clarify whether the person was a cis or trans-female. Mass shooters born as women are incredibly rare.

When the news media see fit to report this was a female with no mention it is actually a trans dude, THAT is politicizing this.

And your fanatical approach to this problem is, as usual, useless. There really is no point engaging with you at all. You have zero to contribute.

Fanatical? I am pointing out that the media is lying to us. That is just me stating an objective fact. 

Meanwhile, you are over here pushing made-up propaganda words to describe normal people.

So for the record there is ZERO evidence that the shooter is trans or has anything to do with trans and nobody has suggested that. 
 

But you know what I find even more funny?  Whenever someone mentions gun control in wake of a tragic shooting the right wingers are like “now is not the time to politicize this tragic event you shameless ghouls!”  But they don’t miss a beat to start spreading misinformation and rhetoric about Trans , Muslims, immigrants etc and calling for drastic reforms before the bodies are even cold. Pure hypocrisy.

For the record, you are full of shit as usual. This is the problem with the media lying, as it will take a bit for the truth to finally be verified, but folks are in fact talking about this.

It's on dozens of accounts. The Western Standard reported it was a tranny last night.

You know what I find even more funny? Every time some third world mouth breather guns someone down in the street the Left is all like "Now is not the time to talk about immigration or crime or smuggling or increased sentences, you vile racists! He was oppressed by a racist society! It wasn't his fault! He was the real victim!"

Good statement from Poilievre.

He was a chubby guy with a dick. Is that good enough?

Began identifying as a girl two years ago. As an adult. Seriously? That's not how reality works. Those rare people born with gender dysphoria know it at a VERY early age. They don't suddenly 'discover' they're a girl in their twenties. This is an unstable personality looking for an excuse for their failed life.

The search engine is saying the shooter is Jesse Strang.

The perpetrator has been identified as Jesse Strang, a transgender individual who began identifying as a woman around 2023. Reports indicate that Strang was involved with a community that shared interests in firearms, and there are indications that she had previously expressed violent tendencies.

https://www.durangoherald.com/articles/multiple-victims-in-school-shooting-in-northeastern-british-columbia-canadian-police-say/

How the narrative comes out in the Canadian news media will depend largely on who the shooter is. If the transgender angle is confirmed, then this shooter will be portrayed as a victim and the focus will be on how it's the fault of society for  not embracing the trans agenda, and also that the Liberal gun confiscation program is a good thing.

If the shooter was of a conservative mindset, then they would somehow blame Conservatives and tie them to MAGA.

A horrible tragedy for the country.

How many posts did you make trying to turn a woman getting shot for running over a cop into a poltiical issue?  Give me a break,

And they're right.  Trying to weaponize a tragedy to promote your political ambitions and agenda isn't appropriate.

Who's spread any misinformation? The shooter was trans.  Nobodys' said anything else or claimed they were muslim or whatever. 

That's just a simple fact of the case.  Just like if the gun turns out to be a registered firearm or illegal handgun we'll hear about that as well.  Those are just facts. 

What you REALLLLY don't  like is that this is yet another in a growing list of what you perceive as 'left wing violence' and you're butthurt about it. 

Sorry muffin but you'll have to suck it up that this is just a fact, same as i'll have to suck it up if they were a lawful gun owner. 

Yeash.

With the shooter dead getting to the why  is going to be really hard. We don't do enough to promote mental health in this country although we're certainly better than a lot of others.

It'll probably take a better part of a week for all the details to come out and before we can get a clear picture. But I agree with you that trying to get to the bottom of why this happened trying to prevent it in the future is critical. There were probably signs, but the people around this person probably didn't know what they were looking for or how to deal with it if they saw something concerning

I don't know that this person transitioned yet. They only came out two and change years ago, it's possible that they started hormone therapy but that's not clear. It's actually an interesting question.
