ERLC President Brent Leatherwood Rips Steven Crowder for Releasing Three Pages of Nashville Shooter Manifesto
Protestia ^ | November 6, 2023 | David Morrill

Posted on 11/06/2023 7:33:03 PM PST by Morgana

In a press conference at what appeared to be the press room for the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), president Brent Leatherwood made an impassioned plea for continued censorship of remaining evidence collected from deceased Covenant School shooter Aubrey Hale, stating, “Parents and families came together to prevent this exact moment from happening,” and yet Stephen Crowder and other outlets who shared the pages “allowed this woman who terrorized our family with bullets, to be able to now terrorize us with words from the grave.”

Leatherwood, a parent of Covenant School children, has been vocally against the release of the manifesto despite the shooter being dead and leading an organization ostensibly committed to protecting the free expression rights of Southern Baptists.

Conservative journalist and podcaster Steven Crowder came into possession of three pages of Hale’s writings and released them on social media as well as his Louder With Crowder show. Big tech platforms like Google, Facebook, and Reddit flipped into high gear to censor mentions of the information, forming an unusual alliance between woke pro-transgender forces and the seemingly conservative Christian primary school, who have both been fighting against the release of the evidence.

Leatherwood told the gathered reporters, “Our parents are still committed – our families are still committed – to doing everything we can to make sure that none of the rest of this sees the light of day because we don’t want our children to someday read this stuff,” and noted that none of the parents have been given access to the manifesto, leading to questions about how the group represented by Leatherwood could possibly know what they were censoring.

This is a quickly developing story. Stay tuned.

I just cannot grasp where this guy is coming from. Maybe he thinks evil will somehow disappear if we refuse to face it. It doesn’t work that way.

Ask yourself if you need a nanny to protect you from this.

Every mass shooting has a sinister government hand behind it.

I agree. I am mystified.
I understand why the politcos and Feds are covering this up, but why would this alleged 'churchman' try to hide the truth? He certainly should know that the truth will make us free (of course this is The Truth - Our Lord Jesus Christ - but it also applies to lesser truths), and that Light is needed to overcome darkness.

So what's the deal? A faux Christian who loves darkness? I suppose I shouldn't say that. I don't know the full story - but keeping people in the dark doesn't help.

My guess is she had lengthy correspondence with other Trans (bio women who had declared themselves ‘men’) and her former pen pals may be adult children of big names in that city or state. Women tend to communicate more with each other than the typical men would do. This characteristic probably applies even for those women who have ‘declared themselves’ as men.

Maybe the parents just don’t want their kids to be reminded of what happened all over again. They didn’t know what was in the notebook. Now that we know how much Hale hated the kids, maybe the parents had a point.
