The parents of Iowa school shooter Dylan Butler — who killed a sixth-grader and wounded several others before turning the gun on himself — said they had “no inkling he intended the horrible violence” when they dropped him off at school last Thursday.

Jack and Erin Butler, whose 17-year-old son opened fire inside Perry High School just before 8 a.m., expressed their sorrows over the shooting in a statement released by their attorney on Monday.

The Butlers said they talked about the future with their son on the drive to school that morning and that “it felt like he was ready to get back to school after Christmas vacation and the start of a new semester.”

They are either lying or incompetent parents. If your kid identifies as trans the kid needs help, they are mentally broken. I am not blamimg the parents, just tired of the denials, incompetent or lying, there is no inbetween on this.

I would expect so. They'll probably face a civil suit. They may not be rich, but they want to keep their house and any other assets. A lawsuit would probably reveal how much they really knew about their son's activities, but it doesn't hurt to publicly claim "I knew nothing!"

Another trans shooter named Dylan?

Wasn’t the shooter in Nashville also named Dylan?

The tranny in Nashville used the name "Aiden Hale" in a social media post. Birth name Audrey Elizabeth Hale. We have the "male" name Dylan for this latest shooting, but not the birth name. If ever disclosed, I expect a female name as well. The LGBTQ+ community is bristling at the frequency of shooters turning out to be "trans". They press to label it "misinformation" to hide the reporting.

Another poster noted the absence of an Adam's apple on Dylan Butler. That suggests a female "trans" attempt to be a male.

I raised two socio-psychopathic step kids (adopted out of foster care) Everything I did was to protect myself from civil and criminal penalties when they finally when total shit house rat crazy.

I told them all of the treatment and therapy sessions I took them to was so I wouldn’t go to jail with them. And if they do get arrested, never to call me or expect me to give some sob story on the witness stand that would spare them a lengthy prison sentence.

One of the small towns in Iowa that I am quite familiar with is not a great deal smaller than Perry, but it has had the whole nine yards of LGBTQ agitprop aimed at it for decades, including the public school instigating an on-site club for "student understanding." A number of homosexual graduates from the HS over the years have returned with regularity, flush with cash and often their latest "spouse." The mission: normalize everything. Get the local paper on board. Co-opt the usual declining protestant congregations in their now-underutilized churches.

It would be funny if it weren't met with the most sickening "we must be tolerant and not judgmental" response from people who ought to be outraged. As it is, whenever I hear about the latest example, I shake my head and say a silent thank you for the considerable number of Mexican migrants that have come in and politely but firmly said, "¡No!" to the whole sordid thing.

Anyway, this particular town is going to have some sort of LBGTQ-fueled incident -hopefully not a violent one - and the "right people" will confirm their cluelessness and/or disingenuousness with a statement similar to the one these parents issued.
