Three Dead, Including Suspect, After Shooting at Rhode Island Ice Rink
Was this simply a family dispute or did gender ideology have a part to play?

The Spin
Left narrative
While police are still investigating this tragic event that appears to be a family dispute, prayers go out to the victims and their loved ones. Children and families should be safe at sports events, not the subject of gun violence.
Right narrative
This latest tragedy adds to the long list of shootings carried out by individuals struggling with gender identity. More must be done to effectively supervise those gender questioning who show signs of mental distress, not to stigmatize, but because it is evidently easy for those in this state of instability to become radicalized. Blindly woke acceptance of trans self-identification cannot be allowed to pose a danger to innocent lives.
