‘Manifesto’ Revealed: The Reasons Behind the Louisville Bank Killer’s Assault Are as Untethered as He Was

The Louisville bank murderer wrote down why he planned to assault the bank he worked for, and his reasons are as untethered as the killer was from reality.

The 25-year-old University of Alabama finance major was said by a co-worker to have had a “kind of a monotone personality.” He decided on April 10 that he’d take an AR-15 platform rifle and assault his co-workers at the Old National Bank building. He bought the gun six days before the shooting.

Murder Manifesto Mystery

Hale planned the attack for months, but her “manifesto,” in the hands of the FBI, has yet to be released.

On Monday, March 27, as the April 1 “Trans Day of Vengeance” approached, Audrey Hale, a woman who thinks she’s a man, shot open a locked door and entered the Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee.

In 14 minutes, Hale fired 152 rounds from an AR-15–style rifle and 9mm Kel-Tec SUB2000. Hale shot dead Evelyn Dieckhaus, 9, Mike Hill, 61, William Kinney, 9, Katherine Koonce, 60, Cynthia Peak, 61, and Hallie Scruggs. That nine-year-old was the daughter of Chad Scruggs, senior pastor at the Covenant Presbyterian Church, on the same site as the school.

When political correctness stifles the reporting of a mass murder

IT’S only a week since six people – three nine-year-olds and three staff – were shot dead at a school in Nashville, Tennessee, but already the story has all but disappeared from the mainstream media. Some might say this is due to such shootings being tragically routine, but I suspect more subversive motivations may be at work here. As we saw with the 28-year-old ‘child refugee’ who drowned in the Channel a few years back, it’s always telling when the BBC suddenly stop promoting a story they’ve sunk their teeth into. In this case they barely nibbled it, the British coverage of these gruesome killings being remarkably sparse.

The Skewed Nashville-Shooting Coverage

On this Friday edition of The Editors, Rich, Charlie, and MBD are appalled at the skewed media coverage in the wake of the horrific shooting at a Christian school in Nashville.

Charlie doesn’t think he’s “ever seen an incident such as this one in which the perpetrator has been treated, reflexively, as if she were the victim. It seems to me that the press just writes the same thing, whatever happens. If a Christian had killed six transgender people, what would look different about the headlines in media segments that we’ve seen? . . . I can’t move for pieces about how this has ‘sent a chill through the transgender community.’ I have seen precisely zero pieces about how this has and should have scared Christian children.

Groomed to Kill

The massacre in Nashville is not the fault of conservatives, it is the bitter fruit of a madness that has poisoned an entire generation.

After the horrific massacre in Nashville, the Democratic Party is hellbent on feeding the malignant narcissism of the “trans community,” in which they see a reliable, perpetually aggrieved voter base and a tool with which to terrorize society.

This isn’t “Christian nationalism.” Virtually every institution is sending a message that murderous violence toward Christians is acceptable, or at least less bad than exposing the “trans community” to obloquy. Law enforcement is obstructing the release of the manifesto. Merrick Garland won’t call it a hate crime, and neither will Joe Biden, who apparently thinks this is all a big joke.

Las Vegas mass shooter Stephen Paddock opened fire after losing $1.5 MILLION while gambling weeks before massacring 60, newly-released FBI files reveal

The Las Vegas mass shooter Stephen Paddock killed 60 people and injured hundreds more after losing $1.5million gambling weeks before the shooting, new FBI files revealed.

An FBI interview with the gunman’s fellow gambler detailed in hundreds of pages of documents made public this week’s suggests his loss could have been an influence.

The other gambler, whose name is redacted in the documents, said he believes the stress could have easily caused gunman Stephen Paddock ‘to snap.’ Paddock, 64, was a video poker player who relied on gambling as his main source of income.

Canada mass shooting inquiry identifies many police failings

TRURO, Nova Scotia (AP) — A public inquiry has found widespread failures in how Canada’s federal police force responded to the country’s worst mass shooting and recommends that the government rethink the Royal Canadian Mounted Police’s central role in the country’s policing.

In a seven-volume report released Thursday, the Mass Casualty Commission also says the RCMP missed red flags in the years leading up to the Nova Scotia rampage that resulted in 22 people being slain April 18-19, 2020 by a denture maker disguised as a RCMP officer and driving a replica police vehicle.
