The thinking of the transgender person responsible for the Nashville Christian school massacre, which resulted in the deaths of six people, has been partially revealed. Extracts from the shooter’s notebook, as disclosed by podcaster Steven Crowder, expose a terrible cocktail of racial hatred, envy, and vitriol directed toward whites, whom the shooter perceived as “privileged.”
The 28-year-old shooter wrote the disturbing entry “Kill those kids!!!” in his diary on February 3. Those nerds who wear designer khakis and sports bags to private schools and whose parents drive Mustangs and Convertibles. I want to shoot you weak-ass d—ks with your mop yellow hair, wanna murder all you little crackers!” the diary passage continued, escalating into a venomous rant. You white people and your little f—got privileges.
Crowder’s team of investigators independently verified three images of these diary pages, adding weight to their authenticity. The pages were verified as genuine by other sources as well.
The shooter’s notebook offers an insight into her diabolical plans, including a disturbing itinerary for what she named “death day.” At 7 a.m., the schedule simply said, “get dressed,” and at 12:37 p.m., it ended with the frightening words, “time 2 die.” She wrote, “I hope I have a high death count,” in her diary on March 27. All set to expire, lmao. A worrisome preoccupation with violence and anarchy is suggested by this haunting revelation.
Writings reflect a critical race theorist-aligned envy of what the shooter sees as a “dominant” and “privileged” culture. This ideology, taught in some public institutions, promotes the idea of racial superiority and privilege.
The shooter apparently boasted to a companion before the tragedy that she would leave behind indisputable evidence of her motivations. Nashville’s police chief, John Drake, had said that the shooter’s manifesto would be made public, but it took nearly a year for that to happen.
Frustration and lawsuit arose as a result of the lengthy delay in releasing the manifesto, for which officials provided conflicting reasons and resisted transparency. The parents of Covenant School students were allowed to intervene in an open records lawsuit because they feared for their children’s safety if the manifesto were made public.
With these horrific postings, the FBI’s decision not to label the school massacre as a hate crime comes into question. The incident was not labeled as such, but it appeared to have been motivated by racism. The diary also uses slurs, calling the targeted kids “f-gots” and reiterating harmful ideas about traditional masculinity.
Several members of the Nashville City Council voiced their disapproval of the manifesto, with one calling it a “blueprint on total destruction.” The diary’s contents, however, indicate a dangerous agenda involving firearms and violence at the school and provide no details that would encourage imitation.
Delays, legal challenges, and contradictory comments from law enforcement have all plagued the tale of the shooter’s manifesto. Clarity and resolution are needed for the sake of justice and public comprehension because it raises questions about transparency and responsibility in handling key evidence in such cases.
