I used to think it was ridiculous that someone could commit an act of violence and/or stupidity and think that it would somehow win over people to their cause. Case in point would be the Just Stop Oil protesters in Europe who think blocking roads, making people late to work, or keeping them from getting medical attention if they are in an ambulance will make them sympathetic to their cause.
Then I realized that wasn’t the goal. It is to annoy or scare people so much they give in and give the protesters and terrorists what they want. It’s a case of the squeaky wheel gets the grease on steroids.
Terrorists don’t care whether people support them or not, they just want them so afraid that that they won’t oppose them.
The Covenant School shooting earlier this year is an example of that. The Audrey “Aiden” Hale, a transgender man, was so upset at perceived biases against the transgender community that he entered a school and killed three young students and three adults before police shot and killed him.
The media, politicians, and police already showed that the terror tactics worked on them. Some blamed the victims, as if an elementary school child’s opinion (even if it is formed about transgenderism) would affect someone he or she has never met. Police refused to release the killer’s journals with excuse after excuse. They even went after the police officers who did allegedly release some of the information, which should have been released months earlier.
The only person the Covenant School shooter did inspire was another transgender woman who wanted to follow in Hale’s footsteps. Jason Lee Willie, who goes by the name, “Alexia N. Willie,” and is a transgender woman was arrested and charged 14 felony counts of Interstate Communication of a Threat to Injure, according to court documents. Willie was charged on Nov. 7 in U.S. District Court.
The indictment says Willie threatened to kill and rape Christian schoolchildren, inject people with HIV, and more. He also allegedly proudly declared that he is a pedophile.
“We’re out here walking into your school, shooting your children, and I’m going to tell you right now, I’m gonna be one of them and the FBI isn’t gonna stop me, but I’m gonna kill your children out here,” Willie said.
He reasons for wanting to kill children he didn’t know were the same as Hale’s: bias against transgender people.
At no time do Hale or Willie explain how killing innocent children will support their belief in transgenderism, make things better for transgender people, or convince others to support transgenderism.
“There’s a lot of transgenders out here that are tired of being picked on and we’re going to go into the schools and we’re going to kill their f*cking children out here, and that’s the end of it. We’re at war,” Willie said, according to the indictment. He added, “Let me put a bullet in your head.”
We were lucky this time, perhaps luckier than you might think. This arrest was not the first time Willie had been arrested on such charges. After a previous arrest, a judge release him on no bond because of Illionois’ new SAFE-T Act, which gives transgender individuals leniency because of safety concerns, according to Reduxx. The state wants to avoid being seen as biased against transgender people so much they are willing to endanger everyone else.
However, these are federal charges Willie is facing now not state charges. Hopefully, the prosecutors and judge will the do the right thing and take Willie off the street and get him the counseling he needs.
