‘DECEASED GUNPERSON’
A profoundly mentally ill psycho with apparent longstanding violent tendencies stormed into Canada’s Tumbler Ridge secondary school Tuesday and reportedly shot dozens of people.
Approximately 25 were injured and 10 are now dead. It’s one of the deadliest mass shootings in British Columbia history.
Authorities initially described the suspect, found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, as a “woman in a dress.” Then RCMP Staff Sergeant and Tim Walz impersonator Ken Floyd repeatedly referred to the shooter as a “gunperson” in a press briefing.

And there’s the tell, Dear Reader.
It’s technically illegal in Canada to speak true biological reality when you’re dealing with mentally ill transgenders, dead or alive, so it makes sense a member of law enforcement would be ultra careful with a “non-binary” mass murderer.
Reduxx, an excellent and quite aggressive Canadian conservative outlet, reported the news that the shooter was actually a confused, violent and troubled young man named Jesse Strang.
It gets a bit more disturbing from there. Strang’s mother, who describes herself as a “libertarian conservative,” appeared to be all in on transgender ideology nonetheless. At her apparent encouragement, Jesse had started a gun enthusiast YouTube page. He abandoned it, deleted all the content, and then later converted it to a weird, tranny anime YouTube channel.
His mother appears to have gone to Facebook groups for advice regarding problem children with violent tendencies several years ago. Finally, the kicker is he later appears to have further radicalized himself on a popular Reddit “male-to-female” transgender page.
What we’ve got in this particular case is a perfect storm of red flags and systemic communications breakdowns, in no small part due to prevailing far-left attacks on language and culture.
Jesse was a man in a dress. He was a deeply troubled man with longstanding and very public mental illness. He was a gun enthusiast. Authorities in charge of protecting the population failed on every level. They failed to protect the kids with proper security measures, and now they’re failing to properly identify the suspect and the ideological pipeline that led up to the shooting.
Fringe left-wing ideology contributes significantly to these failures. In the case of Canadian authorities, they are literally barred from calling a spade a spade, so to speak.
The prevailing Gay Race Communist vocabulary acts to confuse, obfuscate, demoralize and transmute.

We can’t properly identify the shooter. We can’t properly characterize his mental illness. Any potential blame would also be reflexively blunted by appeals to “societal” or “systemic” oppression. As a result, the ability of authorities and otherwise thinking people to take any meaningful action is nullified.
Obviously, there will be ample discussion over guns, but zilch about the psychologically deranged stew that pickled the brains of Mr. Strang.
There are other popular Gay Race Commie phrases that serve a similarly Orwellian function. “No one can be illegal on stolen land,” a phrase Billie Eilish recently stole, is basically inarguable mumbo jumbo***. It’s meaningless and intellectually convoluted, so arguing against it puts rational people at a distinct disadvantage. Unfortunately, it’s really easy to say, so brainless emoting idiots like Eilish deploy it with frequency.
***(The concept traces its roots back to Mao’s China and something they called “Tifa.” James Lindsay wrote an interesting post on the history of it here.)
In the case of the Tumbler Ridge Shooter, were you to interrupt SSG Clark with a series of questions about why he’s choosing to refer to a dead mass murderer as a “gunperson,” you’ve basically already lost sight of the matter at hand. You’re debating semantics with a low IQ goon programmed to spit out Right Thought.
Fortunately, we don’t live in Europe or gay Canada. We live in America and still have freedom to speak.
America might have invented Gay Race Communism, but I kind of look at it like that phrase my parents used to say.
“I brought you into this world, and I can take you out of it.”
The tide is indeed turning on these things, Dear Reader; the only question is how many more Tumbler Ridge shooters will occur before we finally win.
