Should be the safest country on the planet by all accounts if that is even remotely true.

 

[The blue phantom]

As for the Madison shooter, the girl had the 'manifesto' posted about how men need to be wiped out. I wonder how the media will deal with this..?

Have you cleaned your room?

Have you read this purported "manifesto"?

I have and whilst it's rambling and incoherent and makes racist remarks, the only thing clear (if it is genuine) is that she hates everyone including herself.

It's not even a manifesto tbh.

she was a misanthrope not a misandrist.
