the group chat must have gotten leaked

[@adrienneflora7078]

Smart friend to report him.

[@soloyoni2000]

He doesn’t even own a single gun

[@WhiteDragon110AC]

Alex Ye may not own a single gun but it is abhorrently easy to get one on short notice legally and illegally . The people who who bullied Alex Ye can thank themselves for causing that . Seems more and more people are being born that would rather hurt others than show kindness and/or understanding . People that the world doesn't need. I don't weep when bullies meet a nasty fate because they are the ones who bring it on themselves.

​@@WhiteDragon110AConly criminals can get a gun on short notice, the rest of us have to wait and jump through hoops.

My man's really wrote a whole memoir. Who upset this man?😭

[@commonsense504]

A dude named Andrea. There's your reason.

lol sucks to be Andrea right now it seems 😂

[@zigzagzarf]

another example of the harm that happens to a kid when you transition them instead of giving real mental healthcare

[@denverlilly3669]

So you have to isolate the one factor in this that fits your narrative. I agree we should keep LGBT matters away from kids but let's not pretend this is because this kid used male and female pronouns.

[@zigzagzarf]

@@denverlilly3669 would you like a list of the 15 trans shooter in the last 2 years

[@sriavula]

i highly doubt this would have went through, maybe now after all this when he gets released

[@johnd.5601]

Dan Brown writes in a similar fashion. Close to reality.

[@williammurray1341]

There was a time when mental illness was acknowledged and treated. Today one is often labeled "phobic" for pointing out aberrant behavior.

[@denverlilly3669]

This didn't happen because he was using male and female pronouns. This is obviously the result of a very troubled kid who didn't get the help he needed.

[@Tallacus]

Thank you Jesus for stopping this man

[@disastermaster1413]

Trumps fault

[@MrWaltercronkite]

Wow, seems these people are dangerous. Getting scared. This has happened enough times that im fearing for my safety.
