Now and then I have expressed some skepticism about why the Covenant School Shooter's writings were never released. To this day, they have not been officially made public. But one journal's worth was given to the Tennessee Star. It's 90 pages, and I'm on page 68. I honestly don't know why anyone cared if these writings were released.
CAUTION: It is not something I would suggest anyone read if they struggle with self-harm issues. Every page is a risk.
That being said, I'm including the link, but I can't honestly say there's a lot of value to be found in these writings. Hale was just a person hurting badly who decided to direct that pain to destruction of other people's lives.

A little over 1 year after elementary schoolchildren were massacred in the #Nashville #CovenantSchool shooting that involved an #AssaultRifle , the #StableGeniuses holding a #supermajority in the #TNleg passed a #GunLaw that puts MORE GUNS in schools! They have done NOTHING to take guns out of the hands of the mentally ill or red-flagged #ammosexuals. 😡

#JillianLudwig is an 18 year-old student from #NewJersey studying at #BelmontUniversity in #Nashville. She was struck in the head on Tuesday while walking in a park near the downtown campus. https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/crime/2023/11/08/nashville-belmont-university-student-shot-stray-bullet-edgehill/71501213007/?fbclid=IwAR1QIAhKTM9FGMGhVrzTQDf-tAU6yXD1TwJsGLqU3xItaxgmfG3A2BZkUH0
Earlier this year, a #MassShooting with an #AssaultRifle at the #CovenantSchool not far away left many elementary school children in unrecognizable pieces.
What is the #TNleg having a 'Special Session' about? Should #Tennessee reject federal #education funds?!
What FUCKING morons!

Sixty-six Tennessee #Republicans seek the release of #MassShooter Aiden Hale's #manifesto.
#CovenantSchool sued to prevent its release as it contains the layout of the school and confidential information about its employees.
House #Republican Caucus Chairman, Jeremy Faison, told the New York Post his group doesn't "understand the apprehension".
Predictably, #mainstream #media continues sowing confusion by misgendering and deadnaming the shooter, who is a #trans man.

Negligent #GunSafety laws in the state of #Tennessee set the stage for the tragedy of the mass-shooting of children and staff at the #CovenantSchool in #Nashville.
To amplify and coordinate the voices of the #TennesseeThree in the #TNleg and the spontaneous grassroots movement that erupted after the inevitable result of #BananaRepublicans protecting #GunsOverChildren , a non-profit organization has been formed; Voices for Safer Tennessee (#SaferTN , safertn.org).

CW: Description of trauma
Mother of child at #CovenantSchool gives a heart-wrenching speech recounting the morning of March 27.
She takes the audience inside the shattered calm of the morning, the pre-school text loop repurposed into survivor-search mode and trauma processing, the family reunification chapel rent by the scream of a mother whose child isn't coming back.

Moral Monday protest takes on gun legislation at the #Tennessee State Capitol.
Three weeks after the #CovenantSchool shooting, Tennessee Republicans are preparing to vote on a new law to arm teachers.
Around a thousand marchers, led by Rev. Barber have processed with coffins to Legislative Plaza.

Tennessee Senate Democrats:
“Justin Pearson comforts a woman holding a sign that reads: ‘Covenant Mom.’
Reminder for the people in power: The families, who are burying children and loved ones murdered in last week’s #CovenantSchool shooting, deserve real action to stop gun violence.”

RT @MichaelSteele
Just a bit of perspective on the GOP: They refused to unseat George Santos for his fraud on his constituents but feel compelled to remove Tennessee Democratic Rep. @brotherjones because he stood with his constituents in protesting mass shootings. #CovenantSchool #democracy

CW: Transmisia, school shooting, Christian CSA
Via @wdlindsy who refused to add a CW:
Mark Wingfield does a good job of reporting what most media may overlook – the history of Covenant School in Nashville where a mass shooting just took place, and of the right-wing Presbyterian group, PCA, that sponsors the school. ,
PCA promotes complementarianism, a homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic religious doctrine that subordinates women to men and condemns LGBTQ people.
#CovenantSchool #homophobia #transphobia #misogyny
The shooter attended the church school as a child (3d and 4th grades) at a time when the church employed a staff member who molested children, but the church ousted the person who raised the alarm about the abusive staff member.
This is important background history that should — but probably will not — inform media coverage of this shooting.

Some strategic thoughts on #NashvilleWalkout protests yesterday at the Tennessee State Capitol (#TNleg), one big step in a movement that is clearly touching a political nerve in Tennessee politics.
1. Republicans and gun culture are losing youth in suburban areas like where the #CovenantSchool shooting happened. This loss spells eventual electoral doom, but no time soon.

As we deal w/ another #schoolshooting (6 dead in #Nashville) we learn the shooter was armed w/ 3 #guns: 2 semi-automatic rifles & a handgun. Biden has called for a ban on #assaultweapons. Please sign this #petition to tell #Congress to stand up to the NRA, & pass an #assaultweaponsban.

Nothing justifies killing children. But people are attacking the trans community for it. Should they look deeper?
From the article /at a religious website/:
As evidence of this “abuse,” Erlick pointed to a 2014 blog written by Oklahoma Baptist pastor Wade Burleson, who detailed how a leading layman in Covenant Presbyterian Church — the man who designed the Covenant School logo with the Latin phrase Veritas Christo et Ecclesia (“Truth for Christ and the Church”) — was facing persecution from church leaders, whom he accused of covering up sexual abuse of minors by a deacon in the church.
That alleged abuse happened in the early to mid-2000s, which would correspond with the time this week’s 28-year-old shooter was involved in the school and perhaps the church. No direct link has been stated between this alleged abuse and the shooter. Whether the shooter attended the church as well as the school is not known.

CW: CW: Mention of death by guns again.
Details from the rich, full lives of the three adults killed Monday at a Nashville elementary school have emerged quickly in the aftermath, but information on the three 9-year-old children — whose lives ended tragically young — has been slower to publicly surface from a community buried in grief.

E' trapelato che #AudreyHale, la killer della strage nella #CovenantSchool, era una persona transgender e che si identificava come un maschio, come è emerso dai suoi profili social.
Ovviamente, il lato conservatore degli #USA accusa Audrey di fare l'ennesima cosiddetta "propaganda #LGBT".
Io auspico solo una cosa: a causa del suo gesto folle, sono morte 6 persone,
tra cui alunni dell'età di 9 anni
a cui sono state stroncate le vite.
Il dibattito non va spostato SU NIENT'ALTRO!

It’s as though they deliberately say, “praying for the such and such, blah blah blah”….to mock every single victim of these violent, horrific shootings. CHILDREN ARE FUCKING DYING. But do go on about praying to your Cloud Genie, ‘cause THEY’LL fix it.

"A recent study published in the journal JAMA Pediatrics in December backs that point, finding that homicide is a leading cause of death for children in the United States and the overall rate has increased an average of 4.3% each year for nearly a decade."
