OUTRAGE: Trans Organization Paints Nashville Covenant Attacker As A Victim – ‘We will not be eradicated or erased’

On Monday evening, the ‘Trans Resistance Network’, an organization that claims to support transgender individuals, issued a statement regarding the shooting at Covenant Elementary School by a transgender individual that led to six dead.

The massacre led to the death of three nine-year-old children and three elderly staff members who have been identified as Evelyn Dieckhaus, nine, Hallie Scruggs, 9, William Kinney, 9, Cynthia Peak, 61, Katherine Koonce, 60, and Mike Hill, 61.

“We point out that today’s incident in Nashville, TN is not one tragedy, but two,” the statement began.

“The first tragedy today is the loss of life of three children and adults. We extend our deepest sympathies and heartfelt prayer to those families dealing with the loss of loved ones. There is nothing we can offer that will comfort the hurt, or ease the sorrow,” the statement said in the one and only paragraph acknowledging the victims. “We mourn with you.”

“The second and more complex tragedy is that Aiden or Aubrey Hale, who felt he had no other effective way to be seen than to lash out by taking the life of others, and by consequence, himself,” the network wrote as the beginning of a lengthy statement justifying the shooter’s actions.

“We do not claim to know the individual or have access to their inner thoughts and feelings,” the network explained, claiming, “We do know that life for transgender people is very difficult, and made more difficult in the preceding months by a virtual avalanche of anti-trans legislation, and public callouts by Right Wing personalities and political figures for nothing less than the genocidal eradication of trans people from society.”

“Many transgender people deal with anxiety, depression, thoughts of suicide, and PTSD from the near-constant drum of anti-trans hate, lack of acceptance from family members and certain religious institutions, denial of our existence, and calls for de-transition and forced conversion,” the trans network continued. “All of these factors contribute to a population that is medically under-served and who often face anti-trans bias while accessing care leading to significant physical and mental health disparities. Hate has consequences.”

“It is a testament to the inner strength and beauty of transgender people that despite the overwhelming odds of homelessness, job discrimination, and constant anti-trans bigotry and violence, so many of us continue to persevere, survive, and even thrive,” the group wrote. “We will not be eradicated or erased.”

The group then went on to remind the media to respect the shooter’s preferred pronouns.

In response to this letter, Human Events Senior Editor Jack Posobiec wrote, “The ‘Trans Resistance Network’ has released a statement that Audrey Hale is the real victim in the Christian school shooting.”
