The individual who perpetrated the shooting at the Christian school in Nashville on Monday was identified as Audrey Elizabeth Hale, a 28-year-old transgender male whose act of violence marks the second time since 2019 that a trans-biological female has carried out an attack on a school.
In 2019, Alec McKinney, who identified as transgender, participated in a school shooting in Colorado at the age of 17, resulting in the death of one teenager, Breitbart News reported.
While female mass shooters are not at all common, a 2011 study of 133 women who underwent masculinization treatment in Sweden showed that "female-to-males had higher crime rates than female controls … [and] did not differ from male controls. This indicates … that sex reassignment is coupled to increased crime rate in female-to-males. The same was true regarding violent crime."

Hale left a manifesto behind, according to police, but it has yet to be released. It's not clear at all if this was a hate crime since she attacked a Christian church -- one she attended as a young girl -- but it is hard to rule that out on the surface.
Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) has urged the pro-transgenderism left to reconsider its support for the notion that women can transition into men by taking male hormones, specifically testosterone, which is known to boost aggression.
"We're still learning about the horrific shooting in Nashville. But if early reports are accurate that a trans shooter targeted a Christian school, there needs to be a lot of soul searching on the extreme left. Giving in to these ideas isn't compassion, it's dangerous," he tweeted this week. "In the meantime, say a prayer for every kid who lost their life and every parent mourning a child. Christ have mercy."

Officials have not confirmed whether the perpetrator of the shooting had been taking testosterone, a hormone that is readily prescribed by doctors. However, some critics of transgenderism have raised concerns about potential links between the shooting, transgender ideology, and medical treatments.
"Who could have predicted that delisting a mental health condition, replacing therapy with blind affirmation, would result in a movement rife with, wait for it, people with untreated mental health conditions and raging narcissism?" one Twitter user noted.

"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! We have seen women getting violently beaten by trans activists. We have seen 1000’s of extremely vulnerable kids get coerced into having their body parts cut up. And now we have seen 3 CHILDREN AND 3 ADULTS being murdered by a Trans Extremism. We must end Trans Extremism now. No more violence from the trans community. We need tougher law enforcement, tougher sentences and tougher laws to stop Trans Extremists," noted "Gender Madness" author Oli London.

Several studies, including the Swedish study, have found that many transgender individuals experience increased unhappiness, withdrawal, and suicidal tendencies when they identify as members of the opposite sex.
A significant factor contributing to this difficulty is that the vast majority of non-transgender individuals cannot view those claiming to be transgender as potential romantic partners, resulting in a sense of social isolation for the transgender individual, research has shown.
