Ok. So how would you personally benefit from the killer's writings being publically released?
Maybe I wouldn’t send my trans kid to that school if it’s a place known for fostering hate.
The school's name was already published. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Nashville_school_shooting
That doesn’t tell the public anything about why a shooting occurred.
You stated that knowing the school's name would help you. The school's name is public. Therefore your 'want' has been fulfilled.
I wanted to know why the shooting occurred at that particular school. Nothing has been done. Especially if there was anti-trans sentiment being used against the shooter daily. It being a Christian private school would fit the narrative. Totally speculative but a person who murders their bullies instead of just killing themselves is a more believable scenario
Then pressure the police to complete their investigation and release the findings.
That’s probably why all those groups mentioned in the article are suing
They're not suing. They filed a public records request with the cops.
Maybe my would-be killer gets caught because their psychologist studied the killer’s writings and noticed a troubling pattern.
I don’t want even more manifestos glorified and memed on 4chan. I’m cognizant there’s generally a reason horrible things see the light of the public eye.
Body cam footage of someone’s worst moments of their life… release it, violate one person’s privacy, keep one officer/department accountable, public has to weigh that tradeoff.
Even releasing lottery winners’ names ruins lives, but otherwise some would assume the lottery’s fraudulent (money going to politicians’ friends)… instead of just a tax on the poor 🌈
None of that tells me how you would personally benefit from this killer's writings being published.
Not dying:
Guy wants to kill me. Guy complains about me to their therapist without mentioning killing me. Therapist thinks “wait, this sounds like something I’ve read…”
And what they read was some lunatic’s writings that were released. Therapist is then able to report their concerns via appropriate channels and medicates my would-be killer, and I live another day.
That is crap. What-ifs don't benefit you directly like that.
There is absolutely zero reason that the judge erred in his ruling.
You just want to feed your snoopy gene. Nothing else.
What do you mean?
When it comes to violence, I pretty much stop at the headlines. Watched brutal videos many years ago & I’m set for a lifetime on the bulk of true crime and also fictional violence.
I was actually wondering if materials could be released in a limited fashion: send an application, go to a reading room… try to avoid leaks but still let people get science done or whatnot.
