A man who left his family to live as a woman and threatened to “Go BERSERK” in defense of transgender ideology shot and killed his son and the boy’s mother at a Rhode Island hockey game on Monday, but the corporate media really don’t want you to know he was a fanatical adherent of one of their pet ideologies.
A transgender man sexually assaulted his girlfriend repeatedly with a sex toy during a “violent and controlling relationship”, a court was told.
Zainab Jamshaid, a 20-year-old student, is said to have ignored the alleged victim’s pleas to stop despite her repeatedly saying the agreed safe word.
The crazed transgender dad who shot up a high school hockey game in Rhode Island threatened to go “BERSERK” in a trans-rights rant just a day before he massacred two family members and injured three others.
Robert Dorgan, who also identified as Roberta Esposito, killed himself after opening fire at the Pawtucket ice rink where his son was playing on Monday afternoon — less than a week after another transgender gunman shot up a school in one of Canada’s deadliest mass shootings.

The sight of Canadian police and journalists extending fraudulent courtesies to a trans-identified mass-murderer may prove to be a clarifying moment.
On 10 February, Jesse Van Rootselaar (also known as Jesse Strang) killed eight people in the remote British Columbia mining town of Tumbler Ridge. The first two victims were the killer’s mother and half-brother, whom Van Rootselaar shot at home. Van Rootselaar then went to a local secondary school and murdered six more people—five of whom were twelve- or thirteen-year-old students—before committing suicide. Twenty-seven others were injured. It was the deadliest Canadian school shooting in almost four decades, and the highest-casualty mass-shooting event in the nation’s history.
Recently, two major American medical groups endorsed age restrictions on gender-related surgeries, marking a dramatic shift in a debate long dominated by claims of consensus. First, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) issued a policy statement firmly opposing “gender-affirming” surgeries for people under 19. Then, the American Medical Association (AMA) signalled its support. These pivots deal a significant blow to Canadian activists and politicians who rely on the supposed professional consensus to defend these highly contested, unproven treatments for youth.
Days after a deadly mass shooting devastated a rural town in British Columbia, Canada, police are still searching for clues as to why the suspect, 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar, would have turned violent, and how she could have carried out her attack.
In Tumbler Ridge, a mining town of roughly 2,700 people, a picture of the teen’s unsettled life was emerging from police and court records and a family statement. Van Rootselaar went mostly by Jesse Strang, the maiden name of her mother, Jennifer Strang. Van Rootselaar was the name of her biological father, a man she barely knew after a difficult split between her parents. Even though her father lived in the same town, they never had much contact.
Van Rootselaar dropped out of school around four years ago, authorities said.
Social media has misled children about the realities of transitioning, the expert who led a review into NHS child gender services has said.
Baroness Cass, whose work led to sweeping changes including a ban on puberty blockers, criticised the “unrealistic images and expectations” spread online.
She said social media had contributed to the rise in the number of cases of gender dysphoria. Children were not given enough information about “what transition would really mean and how hard it would be”, including intensive medical treatments and “sometimes quite brutal surgeries”, Cass said.
Matt Jacobs, the father of Tumbler Ridge shooting victim Emmett Jacobs, and two surviving children living at Jennifer Strang’s home, has released a statement after the horrific events in the northeastern B.C. community Tuesday.
“The pain I have been feeling from this tragedy is unbearable. I can’t even imagine to explain how lost I feel. I lost my little boy, a man’s pride and joy. Jennifer and I had our differences but she did not deserve this, none of them did. I couldn’t even begin to comprehend the news I had heard on Feb. 10,” the statement reads.
There were signs. There are always warning signs.
Like nearly all horrific episodes of mass violence and domestic violence, the Tumbler Ridge shootings were preventable in hindsight. The killer had a long history of mental health issues, drug use, and police interactions. The signs weren’t just there — they were glaring.
My first column on Tumbler Ridge argued that Canada has a threat-detection problem, not just a violence problem. The subsequent days have only sharpened that diagnosis. As the official timeline firmed up and the reporting deepened, what emerges is not a neat “cause” story but a systems story: a rural community hit by a two-scene escalation, an emergency response that moved fast but arrived late in the only way that matters, and a national information ecosystem that struggled to stay accurate when accuracy was most needed.
Canada’s transgender school shooter was a sadistic 7-year-old, his own mother once said — and he grew more sinister in the months before the shooting as he became obsessed with twisted murder videos.
Jesse Van Rootselaar, an 18-year-old high school dropout, carried out the second worst school shooting in Canadian history Tuesday, first slaughtering his mother and stepbrother at home and then storming into Tumbler Ridge Secondary School, where he killed six people and injured 25 more before turning the gun on himself.
The teenager who murdered his mother and step-brother in a mass shooting in a Canadian town had tried to kill his family before, a neighbour revealed.
On Tuesday, Jesse Van Rootselaar opened fire at his home in Tumbler Ridge and then at a local school before turning the gun on himself.
Investigators have not yet established a motive for the attack that killed eight people, one of Canada’s deadliest gun incidents. A police spokesman told The Telegraph that they “might never be able to”.

The massacre at Tumbler Ridge feels like the militant wing of grievance culture.
There was a double tragedy at Tumbler Ridge in British Columbia this week. The first was the shooting to death of five schoolkids and an education assistant in what ought to have been the sanctuary of their place of learning. The second is that the names and even the bloody fate of those innocents will not be long remembered. Why? Because they had the great misfortune of being murdered by a member of a celebrated minority. By an adherent to that most sainted ideology: transgenderism.
When I was 11, I began identifying as transgender. I had gone down a rabbit hole of websites and niche online forums. There I met a friend—an artist who was 14—whom I admired and looked up to.
We both felt different, out of place in society. Born 10 years earlier, we would have been called tomboys. Instead, we writhed under the pressure of the “female role.” The internet told us the logical conclusion of that struggle was to identify as boys.
I come from a broken home. While my mother and stepfather always loved me, my stepfather became severely disabled when I was 3, leaving me feeling as though I had to raise myself. I eventually reached out to my biological father around a decade later. When he and my stepmother saw my distress—and were told by a psychiatrist that this distress was related to my transgender identity—they began to consider the benefits of affirming me in my transition.

On Tuesday afternoon, Jesse Van Rootselaar, 18, grabbed two firearms from her home and, the authorities in British Columbia said, killed her mother and 11-year-old brother. Then she traveled a mile to the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and killed five students and one educator before turning her weapon on herself.
The mass shooting, which also left two children injured with gunshot wounds, has sent shock waves across Canada, where such violence is rare, and has devastated the small rural community of 2,400 people.
An investigation of Ms. Van Rootselaar’s online life offers a chronicle of a young person’s gradual descent into mental health crises and radicalization into extreme violence.
