The Wrinkle(s) In the Nashville School Shooting – Top 3 Takeaways – March 29th, 2023

It’s a sickness. That’s true of anyone who picks up a weapon and murders someone. That’s especially true when it’s premeditated. It’s most especially true when it’s the premeditated murder of elementary school children. For most of us the concept of murder is incomprehensible, which is a good thing. For an ever-increasing number of people in society, however, it isn’t. While Monday’s horrific school shooting in Nashville was a different version of a horrible story we’ve become all too familiar with, there were three wrinkles to this story along with additional insight into future risks our society may be facing due to the depravity it’s begun to normalize. The first wrinkle, the age of the attacker who was 28. While we’ve had a proliferation of school shootings since the horror that played out at Columbine in 1999, there’s a been a consistent theme and a consistent age. The theme, current or recent students of the school, and the age – 16. That’s median age of a school shooter in the United States preceding Monday’s attack. In fact, 70% of all school shooters have been under the age of 18. In Monday’s attack the perpetrator was a former student but one who hadn’t attended the school in over 16 years. The second wrinkle, the gender of the attacker – female, at least by why of biology. Which plays into the third wrinkle which is transgenderism. Monday’s school shooting was the first on record I could find with someone who identified as being transgendered. And it’s that wrinkle which could be showing us what we may be in store for in the future. And that’s because...
Adolescents are the most likely of any age group to identify as being homosexual and/or transgender. As I covered over a year ago during the debate over Florida’s Parental Rights in Education... We have problems in the classroom. It wasn’t just that the pandemic brought about all kinds of weird agendas like the teaching of the tenants of CRT and gender discovery. It had been happening in many schools for years. We just weren’t paying attention. Gallup has sampled regularly on the sexuality question over the past decade. Ten years ago, 3.5% of all adults sampled by Gallup identified as being homosexual. That already was a figure close to double the number of adults who’d engaged in homosexual behavior. Most recently a record 7.1% of adults said they were LGBT. And there was this... A study by the UCLA School of Law found the following. Adolescents are the most likely of any age group to identify as homosexual and/or transgender. The question I posed at the time was this... Did something specific change within the human genome starting at around 2005 or is this dramatic increase in homosexual/transgender identity – even over those aged 18-22, a product of something else? What's been happening over the past decade which might account for a doubling of the population identifying as homosexual with teenagers being the most likely to do so and at a rate that’s triple that of the adult population? During that time five states mandated LGBT education. California, Colorado, Illinois, New Jersey and Oregon. Elsewhere school boards advanced it in local school districts. And yes, it’s widely supported by teachers’ unions. This is the most likely explanation for what’s been happening. It’s not hard to theorize that some adolescents still trying to figure things out presented with this material might become experimental. Regardless, it’s likely what’s been happening both culturally and specifically inside the classroom, which most certainly accounts for why current teenagers are the most likely to say they’re gay – followed by young adults. Either that or it really was something in the water starting around 2005. But consider...
The mental health effect of large swaths of teens who aren’t biologically homosexual identifying as and experimenting as such with some which go so far as to transition? Thirteen months ago, based on the data I uncovered as part of the research pertaining to Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law, I suggested that for as bad as the mental health issues in our society had become, as it continues to distance itself from the values and principles of God, along with even biology for that matter, that’d we’d likely see the already rampant mental health issues in our society proliferate. What we saw on Monday could be a prelude to what’s to come. The focus will remain on guns as it always does. But as I’m also inclined to point out. Even if guns didn’t exist, would it be acceptable to have created a society with people who feel that what they need to be doing is murdering children? That’s the bigger issue here. The guns aren’t new. In fact, an April 30,1866 article in the New York Times shows how people have changed. The article cited the need for the increase in gun safety at schools as... pistols (are) being dropped on the floor at balls or being exploded in very inconvenient ways. A boy of 12 has his pantaloons made with a pistol pocket; and this at a boarding-school filled with boys, who, we suppose, do or wish to do the same thing. Yep, so in 1866 the school safety concern with guns was that they properly holstered by children while at school. Ask yourself, what’s changed in our society that children regularly brought loaded guns to school without incident back then? It’s pretty clear. And it’s also not very complicated. The further our society moves away from God, the worse the results continue to be. This is why it’s important we do our best to connect or reconnect with our faith with a willingness to do and say what is right, instead of what’s politically correct.
