And Another Trans Shooter

Here at COTTonLINE we have repeatedly noted the frequency with which transexual individuals are involved in shootings. Today brings another, this time in New Hampshire, as reported by Red State

This has become a frequent occurrence considering a web search finds an estimate that they constitute no more than 1% of the population. In the last few years they constitute more than 1% of the reported shootings. I sort of get why it happens. 

Many species including humans are hard-wired to react badly to misfits. Presumably this has had species survival value, but it is tough on the misfits.

The experience of being trans is analogous to being a person with misshapen feet who cannot buy shoes to fit. The available shoes hurt the feet with every step taken, making the pained wearer constantly cranky. 

Similarly, the available "slots" in society don't fit the trans person. Normies react to them in distracting, edgy ways at best, and often in hostile, abusive ways. The result is resentment which, when combined with a suicidal impulse, can lead to revenge killings of normies.
