It seems that the perpetrator of this heinous crime was, once again, a deranged and demonic “trans” person. Reports also suggest that he had the support of his parents in making his transition from Robert to Robin. Everything associated with this evil lifestyle from the perverted mindset to the chemicals and mutilations have a profoundly negative effect on the souls of those who live it. Those who cooperated with psychopath’s “journey” from the doctors to his family need to be held accountable. I want to hear no admonitions about how we must “respect the privacy” of his parents. They must answer for this, especially as his mother apparently worked for the school.
It was made public knowledge that The Southern Poverty Law Center had listed the Catholic Church, because of its beliefs as a hate institution and terrorist threat to freedom, which was followed up by the FBI under the Biden administration placing Catholic churches under surveillance. This could likely incite unstable persons to react. Our USCCB should take legal, political action.
