Wisconsin Police Chief Says It’s ‘Not Important’ If School Shooter Was Trans

“Whether or not she was, he was, they were transgender is something that may come out later, but for what we’re doing right now, today, literally eight hours after a mass shooting in a school in Madison, it is of no consequence at this time,”  Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes said.

The chief also waded into online speculation over the shooter’s gender or possible status as a transgender person.

Barnes slammed speculation over Rupnow’s gender on social media after he was asked about it.

‘I don’t know whether Natalie was transgender or not. And quite frankly, I don’t think that’s important at all,’ he said.

Whenever the shooter is a leftist, the big cover-up begins.

JUST IN: The Christian school shootėr is 15-year-old Natalie Lynn Rupnow, according to multiple reports

Part of the manifesto was posted by Rupnow prior to the shootıng, and it expresses radical feminist ideologies

WTF? Police in Wisconsin are unable to determine if the Christian school shootėr “is male or female.”

Wisconsin Police Chief Says It’s ‘Not Important’ If School Shooter Was Trans

Three are dead, six others injured after police say a 15-year-old female student shot up a Madison Christian School study hall.

By: M.D. Kittle, The Federalist, December 17, 2024:

Wisconsin’s capital city is in shock after a 15-year-old girl pulled out a 9mm pistol Monday morning and shot up her study hall, killing a teacher and a fellow student at the Christian school she attended before turning the weapon on herself and ending her life, Madison Police confirmed.

Natalie Rupnow injured six others, including two students with life-threatening wounds and a teacher and three other students who suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the attack on Madison’s Abundant Life Christian School, according to police.

While Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes wasn’t commenting on motive Monday evening, an unidentified law enforcement source told the Associated Press that the shooter “had been dealing with problems and expressed some of those in writings,” CNN reported. There were reports that Rupnow, who police say liked to go by “Samantha,” had penned a manifesto, although Barnes said police had yet to verify the authenticity of the document. “The good news,” the chief said, is that Madison police have shared the information with its partners at the FBI.

There’s no doubt the suspected killer was disturbed, as evidenced by her violent outburst at the K-12 private school with a mission “to develop students who are committed disciples of Jesus Christ through an excellent, comprehensive, Biblically-integrated educational program.”

She planned the attack in advance, a “law enforcement official familiar with the investigation” told CNN.

‘I Don’t Think That’s Important’

There was speculation Monday that the shooter was transgender, although other sources disputed the claim. Some said she had an “online obsession with school shooters.”

Barnes insisted that he doesn’t care whether Rupnow was transgender, as some reports indicated. It’s not important, he said, when asked by a leftist reporter about “misinformation” online. The Madison journalist effectively wagged her finger at parental rights group for claiming the shooter was transgender, “which is a reaction that we see across the country linked with mass shootings to claim that trans people are dangerous.”

Barnes, a far-left police chief in one of the most LGBTQ agenda-pushing cities in America, said he wished people would “leave their own personal biases out of this.”

“I don’t know whether Natalie was transgender or not and quite frankly I don’t think that’s even important. I don’t think that’s important at all,” the chief told reporters at an evening press conference. “I don’t think that whatever happened today has anything to do with how she or he or they my have wanted to identify …”

Barnes subsequently acknowledged that Rupnow’s gender identity “is something that may come out later.”

While investigators continue to search for answers, the transgender question could prove to be very important. Just ask the families at Nashville’s Covenant School.
