| According to the brewery’s Facebook page, they had already been planning a fundraiser for GivingTuesday to support their local community. In the comments, you can link directly to UCCS Mosaic and LGBTQ Resource Center. |
This is absolutely something a rightwing degenerate troll from 4Chan would do. I bet he’s giggling to himself in his jail cell. That’s the pathology we are dealing with in this country among a subset of radicalized men. |
Bingo. This is exactly correct. |
Well just carry on and ignore it. Don't let it be made into a joke for amusement. |
You realize that the shooter’s claim will now be the main narrative on Fox News and rightwing media ecosystem, right? |

The ONLY way to responsible gun control is an amendment to the Constitution and here's how;
Article V of the Constitution provides two ways to propose amendments to the document. Amendments may be proposed either by the Congress, through a joint resolution passed by a two-thirds vote, or by a convention called by Congress in response to applications from two-thirds of the state legislatures. Sadly, I do not see this happening any time soon. |
Link that this is what’s going on? |
Go read any of the "Chan" forums, read the manifestos of the many right-wing mass shooters, read the research of the experts who have been following the far right. This sort of trolling is an intricate part of their movement. |
So your proof is speculative. Got it |
Speculation it may be, but it is much better supported that the claim by your bedfellows that drag shows are harmful to children. |
| Is there any other evidence supporting him being non-binary? Or are we just going with the lawyers’ claims? |

This one is hitting my family hard. I have an adult trans son, and he said last night that it feels like open season on the LGBTQ community, which we've known for a while. Between the proposed laws against them, leaders saying vile things, and now another hate crime/mass shooting. The shooter claiming to be nonbinary is like a cherry on top of this hate sundae. My son said it feels like if they can't pray them away or legislate them away, someone's going to try to blow them away. It's a terrible thing to see your child grappling with the idea that there's a huge portion of the country that thinks he's less deserving of rights or life just because of which gender he identifies as. I feel like the upcoming discussions/hate speech that's going to come from the shooter's gender identity is twisting the knife and I hate that this is going to be the reality throughout the investigation and trial.
Transphobes are vile people, just like every other bigot, homophobe, racist, and intolerant person. That's what's hurting children, not books or drag queens. |
Can it be a hate crime if it is perpetrated by someone within the same group? |
Children belong at drag shows. Full stop. |
I'm sure we will learn soon enough whether this is an identity they recently "realized" or if they've been living as an enbie for some time. They sound very troubled and it wouldn't be surprising if they have cycled through many identities. |
