State of Tuesday: Man In A Dress Shoots People In Public Again. Who Could Ever Have Predicted It
It’s not just the random individuals in our society who are mentally ill, our society as a whole is ill
Greetings, Dear Reader,
Here we are again, State of the Day, where I strip the euphemism and misdirection off national politics and give it to you straight, no ice, no mixer.
Ahhhh feel that burn. So good.
We had a long weekend, what happened?
GIRRRRL***, YOU CRAZY!
***A man in a dress shot up a hockey rink in Rhode Island yesterday, and the whole thing was caught on video.
The stands were full because children were out on the ice competing and families, normal people, were there to cheer them on. And suddenly in that sea of normalcy, there he was, Robert Dorgan, a hulking, middle-aged man wearing a dress, rumbling down the stands. He had targets in mind. He opened fire at point-blank range.
Luckily, ice hockey dads aren’t afraid to get physical. As the crowd fled, a man tackled Dorgan and took his gun. Dorgan reportedly had another hidden on his person, and used it on himself, but not before killing two people.
Pardon me for thinking he could have saved us all the trouble and simply stayed home and skipped to the end by himself.
People believe the shooting was the result of some domestic dispute. Dorgan’s wife reportedly filed for divorce, first citing “gender issues” and then citing irreconcilable differences. Perhaps the differences were Dorgan getting breasts surgically attached to his torso.
As far as transgender mass shooters go, Dorgan was both unique and an entirely expected and predictable consequence.
Let’s run through Dorgan’s derangement. He changed his name to “Roberta Esposito,” so he was not only transgender; he was transracial. He called himself a Republican, followed several large GOP accounts, but he also harassed them nonstop over transgender issues. He was a prolific reply guy whenever anyone questioned trans ideology. When Kevin Sorbo called Democrat Rep. “Sarah” McBride, another man in a dress, “creepy,” Dorgan replied “keep bashing us. but do not wonder why we go BERSERK.”
He apparently had both SS and Totenkopf tattoos, so a real Nazi enthusiast. Not unusual for hardcore motorcycle enthusiasts though, which Dorgan apparently was. He was also a big fan of Nick Fuentes (except for his hands, which he frequently said Fuentes should surgically alter) and InfoWars. Dorgan was also very clearly a gym rat. Many images of him in dresses also feature him busting out the ol’ biceps.
But of all the demographic wickets Dorgan hit, the most obvious one went ignored: Insane.
Like most, if not all, of the transgender movement, Mr. Dorgan was clearly insane. The kind of insane that should be promptly and summarily relegated from normal society. When I say normal, I mean exactly the kind of society Dorgan rampaged through: Parents, families, a community, gathering to watch a high school hockey game in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
You don’t get much more normal than that as far as America goes, and Dorgan, the sore thumb of it all, went ignored.
Perhaps the community is just too polite. Perhaps they’ve also been bludgeoned non-stop by a far-left psyop. They’ve been demoralized. De … Moralized.
The red flags are too numerous to count, in Dorgan’s case, and somehow they went almost entirely ignored. Number one, he’s a father abandoning his family to pursue fringe sexual deviancy. Normal, healthy societies would usually shame such behavior, but not us. Number two, he’s not a woman and he never will be. In more discerning and morally moored decades of American history, such pursuits, if pursued at all, would be kept in the bedroom, never mind appearing in full, unhinged regalia in the stands of a high school sporting event.
Something is broken when both one and two appear in public and there isn’t a concerted, community effort to put a stop to it. Instead everyone just sits and bears it. De … Moralized.
Last but not least, his public persona screamed brimming potential violence. He was a prolific poster to social media. His posts were often tinged with or outright declared impending violence.
So we’ve got a mentally unwell, violent, sexually deviant, hulking man in a dress and he’s sitting in the stands with peaceful, normal people.
Why?
Friend and former colleague Greg Price said the obvious:
“If a white guy named Robert who decided one day that he’s now a Latina woman named ‘Roberta’ got sent to an asylum instead of having his delusions ‘affirmed,’ his wife and daughter would still be alive,” he tweeted.
We used to put the Dorgans of the world away. And please, spare me your civil rights lecture. In saner times, this is an open-and-shut involuntary committal. A hundred years ago, Dorgan’s wife gets a judge’s signature posthaste. A few hours later a white van pulls up to Dorgan’s house, four sizable orderlies get out with a straitjacket and some Thorazine. Problem solved.
For some reason we not only have to suffer through disruptive mental illness, we have to celebrate it. And I don’t just mean transgenderism.
Pretty sure Renee Good and Alex Pretti were mentally ill. Pretti also committed a violent crime in broad daylight on camera 11 days before he was shot and killed by police.
Were he locked up then and there, he’d still be alive. He’d be in treatment. Maybe one day he’d reemerge a better, more whole person.
But no. They’re both martyrs now to the worldview of godless, degenerate leftism.
Why on earth is a bearded lady (allegedly) doing mental health counseling at an elementary school in Virginia?
“JW” insists he saw the man at Friday drop off. I checked the school directory and saw nothing of the sort. Would I be even remotely surprised if ol’ JDubs here was totally correct? No, I would not.
It’s not just the random individuals in our society who are mentally ill, our society as a whole is ill.
We deeply need a “retvrn.” We need a reawakening. A restoration of basics. A rebirth of common sense and common decency.
Criminals need to be arrested and jailed promptly. The mentally unhinged and chronically anti-social need to be restricted from accessing public spaces, preferably institutionalized. Illegal immigrants need to be deported. All of them, Liam too. The sexually deviant need to be shamed, explicitly, outwardly and aggressively. The fat, slovenly, hideous, pink-haired masses and their academic mumbo-jumbo that has been casting a spell over the best and brightest in our culture need to be barked at ceaselessly, they need to be checked, shoved, and cajoled back into their musty, fungal basement studios, only ever to come out in order to stand behind the register during the graveyard shift, where their interactions with healthy society can be kept to near zero.
We need men like the hockey dad who tackled ol’ Roberta to start stepping up long before the man in a dress is armed and amid the public.
Stand up, dear brothers. Our country needs us.
I’ll see you in the breach.
