Law enforcement analyst on Nashville shooter’s manifesto: 'It's very disturbing'| Morning in America

Monday marked 56 days since the Covenant School shooting in Nashville, Tennessee, and those following the case still know little about the shooter’s motivation since their manifesto remains under seal. Tennessee state Sen. Jack Johnson says the public has a compelling interest in — and a right to know — what was in the mind of someone “capable of perpetrating such a horrific act.” Evy Poumpouras breaks down why the victims' families are fighting the release of the manifesto.

Release all of it. The people need to know.

[seandebelle]

why is this being treated differently from any of the others

[HandgunSafe]

Let's address the elephant in the room: None of these writings reflect well on the Leftist transgenderism movement.

[AnimeMerfox]

No. That manifesto needs to be released. It will help prevent further mass shootings if people pay attention.

You have to trust the people who call something "disturbing." We don't. The more something is censored, the more certain you can be that the actual definition of "disturbing" is "uncomfortable truth." The people are not children who need to be protected by the nanny state. We are adults who have every right to know what in the actual f-bomb is going on in the gated enclaves, especially if said places are cranking out defectives with rifles.

Doesn't cause harm to others. All the crap that has been spewed out in this world today. They are only protecting the shooter here. These families have a right to know. We need to be able to change this crap in this world.
People who commit these crimes are only thinking about themselves and they need help. This whole country needs God.

She's just a part of the COVER-UP. I'm betting there is not-so-nice info about the school AND the church being OUTTED of nefarious actions that the people want to know!

[maddieadams]

The murderer chose to put herself out there, she created the story not the victims. 3 children were killed 3 adults were killed. No one hardly mentions them. Don’t won’t a copycat then don’t create a environment all about the killer.
The public has the right to know what her thoughts were. The media needs to stop pitting ideology, race, politics, against each other. Take responsibility too. Stop picking and choosing whose is a good killer and whose is a bad killer. I’ve never been against much in my life, except crimes of any kind that involve children. Then my blood boils..I have to use social media to find out the truth, breaking news. Not some network the decides it for me.

Eyebrows can sometimes be very fascinating.

[gordonshumway]

So this manifesto will be filtered... but the Buffalo manifesto wasn't because they want copycats of that particular shooter?

[chadmason]

Another possibility of releasing the manifesto is more people may possibly understand what happened to prevent it again. Perhaps help recognize the signs in someone else.

[CaptainUnconventional]

The "dont focus on the shooter cuz it might cause copycat for infamy " is BULLSH T ! Then why aren't they saying these things about movies ?

[gordonshumway]

Still no manifesto... Buffalo manifesto was available in an hour lol

[pagexi]

It’s not up to another human to tell me wtf is best for my grown ass 😡

[JerryinSEMO]

“Is this best for the general public?” Scary stuff. Also, “free speech is free speech until it causes harm.” And who is deciding this? Don’t need the government to protect my feeling. Release the manifesto.

[joymorris]

So they want families, friends, employers & schools to recognize "possible active shooter" behavior but don't want those same people to see examples of that behavior....got cha, makes total sense....DUMB

[Bazinga]

her name should never be said again. her manifesto should be forgotten.

[missf]

The main question when a loved one is killed is why why why and why did they think this was ok what where they thinking that made them do it?? So this doesnt make sense

[JoTracy]

Respect the VICTIMS rights, not the perpetrator's, the rabid mob's, or his sicko supporters
It is not "censorship" to not release it It has nothing to do with "free speech" at all

[FunStuff-zcps]

As long as we're censoring - pass a federal mandate to immediately redact a shooter's name and just call them "the shooter". Presto, all the inspirational glory goes down the toilet just like the shooter.
But good luck getting the msm to cooperate.
