Mass shooting in British Columbia leaves 10 dead and dozens wounded

[bigheadfred]

A shooting at a school in British Columbia left at least eight people dead, including a woman whom police believe to be the shooter, with two more people found dead at a home believed to be connected to the incident, Canadian authorities said Tuesday.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said more than 25 people were injured, including two with life‑threatening injuries, after the shooting at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School.

RCMP Superintendent Ken Floyd told reporters that investigators had identified the shooter but would not release a name, and that the suspect's motive remained unclear.

Excerpt:
You know that tragic yet predictable moment when a mass shooting unfolds, and the left’s woke agenda twists the narrative into absurdity? That’s the horror at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in Canada, where at least 10 are dead (including the suspect) and 25 injured in a rampage, with two more dead at a connected site nearby. The suspect, initially described as a “woman in a dress,” has been identified by media as 18-year-old Jesse Strang, a trans biological male who used she/her pronouns and displayed the trans flag on a public YouTube account. Family confirmation came from his uncle, Russell G. Strang, but police have withheld the name officially, leading to speculation they’re protecting the narrative by treating the shooter as a victim.


God forbid you offend the mass murderer.

Okay let's get this clear right off the bat. They are not "profoundly evil" They are mentally disturbed and in need of Psychiatric care, not gender affirmation, legitimate care.

they hate life and they hate God

That may also be true, I think it is more that they hate themselves and do not have  the ability to deal with it.

  they will shoot your kid in the head for no reason at all.

Which is a good reason to not allow them access to firearms and not give them medication that severely alters their cognitive abilities. Get them the mental health care they need the the lefist woke quarkery.

Maybe not all of them @verga  But , IMO, anyone who deliberately harms kids is profoundly evil.

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

Let's see here, schools encourage kids to cut their junk off, take chemicals that no doubt mess with their emotions, and be unhappy at their "gender assignment at birth"... kids take out their rage on schools. Makes sense no?

According to now-deleted Reddit posts by Strang, he had used psychedelic mushrooms, nearly set his house on fire, and ended up in a mental hospital. After he was released, he was reportedly seeking other psychedelic substances. At the time, he was taking a high-dose antidepressant and an antipsychotic. ...

The trans shooter who carried out one of the worst school shootings in Canadian history at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School, killing nine, has been identified as 17-year-old Jesse Strang, who began transitioning at age 15 and who is also on heavy doses of SSRIs.

Spin?     If it is like our media they'll just bury it like it never happened. 

[Canuck Conservative]

Canadian Leftist Media were probably all set to run with the narrative of "another gun-obsessed right-wing kook", maybe even manage to falsely portray him as "a Trump supporter" ...

Then they discover, to their horror, that he's trans ....

Stop the presses! Don't release his name or any other info about him! Focus only on the suffering victims, and the Liberal politicians' brave, brave responses in this crisis!!

Media and police are referring to him as a woman, aren't they?

@bigheadfred Agreed, but I am not ready to lump them all in the same pile. Over the years I have met/known several that are very nice people.
I have hasd 2 students that I would describe a "gender confused" but later in life (After several years of Therapy) got their lives together.

Seems like SSRIs are involved in a lot of these events, going back to the Columbine Shooting. If the drugs don't cause suicidal/homicidal ideation, abruptly stopping taking them without supervision can.
Combine that with the wrong hormones for the genetics of the individual and it is no surprise that so many of these type of events involve "trans" people.

[jafo2010]

This is all part of the trend toward degenerate behavior in the western world.  Sadly, these people are suffering from a mental disorder that Democommies have normalized. 

How many people have to die at the hands of these lunatics before society wakes up to the genuine threat of these people?  And how long will teachers/administrators be permitted to coach children without parental involvement into pursuing this transgender nonsense?

I consider this behavior a serious crime that should be dealt with the most extreme sentencing.  I consider a very serious crime of child abuse.  Once these children go down that road of destroying their body, there is no road back usually.  They have destroyed their body.

[Canuck Conservative]

CTV finally identified the shooter, same name that I saw here on TBR 6 hours ago

They're also reporting that his mother and brother were among the victims ... plus this -

"CTV News public safety analyst and former OPP commissioner Chris Lewis called the incident “absolutely heartbreaking” in an interview with CTV News Channel on Wednesday.

“People will know the individual, will know the family or the other people that were killed,” Lewis said, in reference to the small size of the community. “They may well appreciate that there has been problems in that family, maybe threats in the past, and of course, the police will know the individuals involved too, and know what has occurred in the past and what they might be linked to.” ..."

A psychotic & probably always sadistic young man decides the answer to all of his problems and mental distress is that he's actually a woman. He's pumped full of prescribed drugs based on a wide range of diagnoses none of which include batshit crazy. He pumps himself full of street drugs on top of that.

The world sends him the message that he's being genocided because he's "trans." He takes up arms, because his thinks the world wants him dead. A lie fed to him by the entire culture and media machine. He kills his family and school children in one of the worst massacres in Canada's history.

The media calls him "woman in a brown dress" then stops talking about him then shifts to "gunperson" because we need to respect his pronouns, in death. This is the state of things. Now Canadians will blame his actions on all the awful anti-trans-ness in the world. Not the fact that he was a drug addicted psycho unleashed and made worse by the trans/medical/industrial complex.

BREAKING: Mother says her 12-year-old daughter who was shot in the head and neck by a transgender school shooter in Canada will not survive the night

[Smokin Joe]

The stats in that video show 'trans' shooter incidents are more than double every one else combined (Black/white/Latino/Native). It is a serious Mental Health problem.

[Canuck Conservative]

Big Media is quick to claim there were only 5 trans mass shooters since 2013, out of 5748 "mass shootings" (4 or more dead or injured) -

"Of those, GVA said there were five confirmed transgender shooters, or fewer than a tenth of one per cent. (There have also been four cases of mass shootings by females in the U.S. since 1982.)

In addition to the Minneapolis shooting, the five by transgender people GVA listed included a March 2023 shooting at a school in Nashville; a November 2022 shooting at a gay bar in Colorado Springs, Colorado; a May 2019 shooting at a school in Highlands Ranch, Colorado; and a September 2018 shooting at a warehouse in Aberdeen, Maryland. However, the convicted shooter in the Colorado Springs incident was later identified as nonbinary, a category that overlaps with but is not identical to transgender..."

(* But I think the list is more complicated than that ... Charlie Kirk's assassin had a trans boyfriend, for example)

Excerpt:
You know that chilling moment when an old online post comes back to haunt the left, proving their defense of radicals was dead wrong? That’s the bombshell resurfacing from 3 years ago, when Redditors on r/VaushV lost their minds over Matt Walsh quote-tweeting a disturbing post from u/jesseboy347—a trans person ranting about comparing themselves to “fictional characters” in anime, feeling “unrealistic” about their body. Walsh called it out as “hate to say I told you so,” and the left branded him a “monster” for “targeted harassment.” Fast-forward to now: u/jesseboy347 is Jesse Strang, the 18-year-old trans biological male who just shot up Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in Canada, killing 10 (including himself) and injuring 25. Yeah, that post didn’t age well—the shooter was a monster, not Walsh.



We've got a full-blown plague of transgender terrorists marinating in Reddit echo chambers, then unloading into innocents like last night’s massacre.

It seemed fairly apparent from the get-go that this young man was lacking a strong male (father figure) influence in his life. I had wondered what the story was.

Transgender school shooter’s father distances himself from killer son: I ‘was not part of his life’
By Patrick Reilly   
Published Feb. 13, 2026, 8:39 a.m. ET
New York Post

The estranged biological father of transgender school shooter Jesse Van Rootselaar is trying to distance himself from his murderous son — while referring to him with male pronouns and his mother’s surname.

Justin Van Rootselaar released a statement insisting he is not to blame for the heartbreak his 18-year-old son, Jesse, inflicted on the small community of Tumbler Ridge in British Columbia, Canada, when he gunned down eight people, including six children.

“I was estranged from Jesse Strang and was not part of his life,” he told the CBC in a statement, using the last name of the shooter’s mom, Jennifer Strang, who was among the eight shot dead Tuesday.

“His mother declined my involvement from the beginning, and I was not given the opportunity to be a part of raising him. Jesse did not use the [Van Rootselaar] family name at any point in his life,” he continued.

“While that distance is the reality of our relationship, it does not lessen the heartbreak I feel for the pain that has been caused to innocent people and to the town we call home,” the father added. ...

 Gender ‘affirming’ care turned Canadian school shooter Jesse Van Rootselaar into a monster — this MUST end
By Post Editorial Board
Published Feb. 13, 2026, 6:57 p.m. ET

Taking an unstable teen boy, giving him powerful hormones and telling him that the entire structure of history, society and biology is allied against him is a recipe for disaster, writes The Post Editorial Board.

If it wasn’t already, the Jesse Van Rootselaar horror story makes it tragically obvious that the “best practices” our health-care establishment adopted for cases of “gender dysphoria” are absolutely terrible.

Radical activists somehow persuaded the medical and mental-health establishments that “gender-affirming care” is the only answer — when in fact it is destroying the lives of confused children.

Supposedly responsible and caring adults are using kids as culture-war cannon-fodder, grooming them into permanent mutilation.

Affirming something that (in all but a tiny fraction of cases) is only a passing confusion is awful even when it doesn’t come with life-changing hormone therapy and/or surgery.

Particularly when the underlying issue is significant mental illness, which then goes untreated.

Think about it: In every other scenario where a young person believes that something is wrong with their healthy body, responsible adults in the caring professions counsel the child to align his or her perceptions with physical reality.

Add to all that, the echo chamber cries that these people are being "genocided", and in their already questionable mental state, you have added the justification for killing anyone who is out to kill them--and that is literally everyone who is not one of their ranks.

In short, they have, by feeding already mentaly ill people cause for their paranoia, created a monster. From that perspective, those already suffering from delusions can now see the straight and even LBG world as hostile and justify preemptive violence in their minds and belief system, as distorted as that picture may be.
