Trans people are not the same as drag queens.

So, your point would be?

They all look the same to him.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Has there ever been another trans mass shooter? If not I'd say that makes them at pretty low risk to go on shooting sprees.

If memory serves, there had been four, if I'm recalling what I read correctly.

Now put that up against Cis shooters ..... Dodgy

https://www.newsweek.com/mass-shootings-...rs-1790854

Quote:"4 shooters out of over 300 mass shooters since 2009 are transgender or non binary. That's just 1.3 percent of all shooters," Anthony Zenkus, a lecturer in social work at Columbia University, wrote on Twitter. "You just proved our point: 99 percent of mass shooters in the United States are cis gendered."

It was literally a trans person...

Hale was assigned female at birth. At the time of the shooting, Hale self-identified as male.

Thus, we have one more white male shooting up a school.

Wrong trans.

Look up transexual.  Just 'cause it starts with 'trans' doesn't make it the same thing.

Look sweetie, YOU attempted to make a semantical argument.

If you want to claim that drag queens aren't trans people, my answer to that nonsensical comment that had nothing to do with anything is that drag queens were also referred to as Transvestites and technically still fall under trans umbrella.
