PAWTUCKET, R.I. (AP) — Three people, including the suspect, were fatally shot during a Rhode Island youth hockey game Monday, authorities said.

Pawtucket Police Chief Tina Goncalves told reporters that three other victims are hospitalized in critical condition.

“It appears that this was a targeted event, that it may be a family dispute,” she said. Goncalves did not provide details about the suspect or the ages of those who were killed, though she said it appeared that both victims were adults.

Authorities were continuing to try to piece together what happened and speak with witnesses, she said.

The shooting happened at Dennis M. Lynch Arena in Pawtucket, a few miles outside Providence.

Outside the arena, tearful families and high school hockey players still in uniform could be seen hugging before they boarded a bus to leave the area. Roads surrounding the arena were shut down as a heavy police presence remained and helicopters flew overhead.

Pawtucket is nestled just north of Providence and right under the Massachusetts state border. A town of just under 80,000, Pawtucket had up until recently been known as the home to Hasbro’s headquarters.

A transgender groyper having to ruin the lives of three people at a child’s hockey game is not something one would expect to happen this year. If you showed this to someone 20 years ago, they would look at you as if something was wrong with you.
First you'd have to explain what a groyper is to someone 20 years ago...
 
I am 100% fine with taking away guns from troons and other mentally defective nutjobs, as well as red flag laws in general.

If you could provide an example of someone sane having their guns unlawfully seized I'd be interested to hear it.
The second amendment says shall not be infringed. EVERY instance of a non-Felon having their guns seized is unlawful.

All Red Flag Laws are, by definition, completely illegal.

Look into divorce cases and you'll find them soon enough. All it takes, in many states, is a woman getting all misty-eyed in front of the police and you can kiss your collection goodbye.

"So, a bunch of brown, gay, Communists who pretend to be on the right..."
 
How mentally dilapidated do you have to be to look like that, look in a mirror and think "Yea, Im a Roberta"
The older, higher T(compared to twink-troons) trannies don't care about seriously trying to pass. Its a public expression of their sex fetish(es) and they want to be seen as the creepy old man who slaps on fake tits and gets fucked in the ass. Its also a control thing where they want to force others to bow to their "identity", knowing no reasonable person would ever actually mistake them for a woman. The canadian shop teacher with massive prosthetic breats was a (less homicidal) example of it.
