Summary of Events


The shooter, identified as Robin Westman (born Robert Westman, 23 years old), carried out an attack at a Catholic church and school during mass.


Weapons used: pistol, rifle, and shotgun.


Casualties reported: 2 children (ages 8 and 10) killed, 17 others injured (14 children and 3 adults).


The shooter allegedly took their own life inside the church.


The FBI labeled the case as a hate crime and domestic terrorism targeting Catholics, though local police had not fully confirmed the motive.

Shooter Background


Legally changed name from Robert to Robin at age 17.


Described as transgender by commentators in the text.


Left behind videos, writings, and a manifesto with disturbing content:


Admiration for previous mass shooters.


Anti-Catholic, anti-Trump, and anti-Israel messages written on firearms and magazines (e.g., “Kill Donald Trump,” “Israel must fall”).


Obsession with school shootings and extremist rhetoric.


Mother previously worked at the same school; shooter graduated from it in 2017.

Political & Media Reactions


Trump administration officials and FBI leadership framed the shooting as an act of religiously motivated hate.


Commentary in the document accuses Democrats and liberal media of downplaying the hate-crime angle and focusing instead on gun control.


References to Amy Klobuchar, Jen Psaki, and the Minneapolis mayor, criticizing their calls for tighter gun laws and for allegedly ignoring the ideological/mental health aspects.


The mayor’s emotional remarks about gun violence and children’s safety are quoted, but framed as anti-gun rhetoric.


The commentary repeatedly emphasizes a pattern of transgender shooters and accuses mainstream media of suppressing that detail.
