Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

i don't get it : they say who she is, then say ; we should not speculate about who she is :
Because most school shooters are male, the wingnut social media is going off about how they're actually transgender.
There's 1000% no evidence of that, but when has that ever gotten in the way of the wingnuts?

Is that their go-to now? Something bad happens and the perpetrator doesn't appear male, they must be trans?
(As usual, they can't even conceive of the concept of a trans man.)
Oh that's easy, article was already written before the name was released and it was just a quick Find and Replace, Editing? What's that? No time in the modern media era. Gotta be the first to report it 3 seconds before the competition.
Can confirm, had a friend who listened to police scanners for a major news station. One time a cop goofed and said the victim’s name (a minor) over the radio, and my friend was thrilled because they had a name to release the instant it was allowed. Less of a friend after I saw their level of glee.
Maybe they are trying to discourage people digging too far into her life and family? Not that it wasn’t already going to happen once the name was released
