  1. Killing God out of nature is the last thing we should be doing

    I was laying in my hammock thinking to myself on the Appalachian Trail watching trout eating flies overlooking a clear mountain stream when I realized something… This is impossible. Thinking to myself is impossible, there is no way nature could’ve accidentally made this happen… it is a life thing to know consciousness living in it yourself! To see yourself in your own reflection made it clear that God is real and lives in nature as much as I do. We may have personality to think in our feelings but to have soul to care about what we’re thinking about is another thing. I don’t need proof that God exists… I can feel it! What is the point in believing in God if the impossible cannot be made possible and life is my witness that the impossible actually exist.

    It was during this trip that all of life fell into place with me in it, try making this on your computer for the sake of artificial intelligence.… Bliss is a terrible thing to waste!

  2. She was trasgender. Obviously something terrible happened to her in that school for it to fester in her tmind hat long so let’s look at the big picture here. Ask the right questions. Where did the hate begin and from whom.

    1. First of all, he was a transgender man. Secondly while I think you make a good point regarding his potential motives he was still a murderer and needs to be regarded and investigated as such

  3. The entire idea of a hate crime is ridiculous but if it is to be applied it should be applied evenly.

  4. The whole idea of a Hate Crime is silly.
    The killer clearly had mental issues so
    he’d be excused by reason of insanity anyway.

  5. Yeah lets just totally ignore the 90% or more of White male shooters who often come from Christian households.
    That and the shooter was said to have been deeply religious.
