A top reporter on the right has alleged that the San Diego mosque shooters were a young transgender couple, but the evidence is limited.<\/p>\n

On Monday, two shooters identified as \u201cteenage gunmen\u201d entered the Islamic Center of San Diego and opened fire, killing a security guard and two staff members before committing suicide.<\/p>\n

The two \u201cteens\u201d have since been outed as 17-year-old Cain Clark and 18-year-old Caleb Velasquez, according to the New York Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Conservative journalist Nick Sortor has suggested that, based on how the two look in photos, they were a transgender couple:<\/p>\n

Why, you ask?<\/p>\n

BECAUSE IT WAS A TRANS COUPLE.<\/p>\n

In the tweet above, he accused local San Diego police of initially covering up the two\u2019s identity to protect their alleged transgender status.<\/p>\n

The only problem is that no other evidence has yet emerged to suggest or prove that Clark and Velasquez were transgender. If anything, evidence to the contrary has emerged, including how the two met.<\/p>\n

According to investigators who spoke with The Spokesman-Review<\/a>, Clark and Velasquez were radicalized on the Internet, which is also where they reportedly first became friends before meeting up in the real world.<\/p>\n

In addition, writings from both suspects were reviewed by the Associated Press<\/a>, which found them to contain \u201chateful rhetoric toward Jewish people, Muslims and Islam, as well as the LGBTQ+ community<\/strong>, black people, women, and both the political left and right.\u201d<\/p>\n

What makes this shooting particularly confusing is what the AP reported at the time, which is that the shooters\u2019 rhetoric targeted both the left and the right \u2014 meaning that, despite insistence from the left, this was NOT just some \u201cright-wing\u201d shooting.<\/p>\n

Some have suggested they were anti-capitalist \u201cNazi Bolsheviks,\u201d which would put them more to the left than the right.<\/p>\n

The shooters were not \u201cright or left\u201d politically.<\/p>\n

They were Nazi Bolsheviks who blamed \u201ccapitalism\u201d and \u201cTrump\u201d for our \u201cjoke\u201d of a \u201cdemocracy\u201d and wanted to burn down the system. pic.twitter.com\/7IIQR92VYq<\/a><\/p>\n

The evidence does fit the Nazi angle.<\/p>\n

\u201cA shotgun and gas can with an \u2018SS\u2019 sticker on the side were located at the scene where the gunmen\u2019s bodies were discovered,\u201d the Post notes. \u201cThe \u2018SS\u2019 sticker appears to represent the Schutzstaffel, the paramilitary organization led by Heinrich Himmler under Adolf Hitler\u2019s Nazi regime in Germany.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Los Angeles Times, meanwhile, analyzed Clark\u2019s social media accounts and found photos of him \u201cdressed in camouflage, a skull mask, before a Confederate flag, wearing emblems associated with Nazism ideology.\u201d<\/p>\n

There was also a racial element involved. One of the two \u2014 it\u2019s not clear which one \u2014 left a suicide note \u201cwriting about racial pride,\u201d a law enforcement source told the Times.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey didn\u2019t discriminate on who they hated,\u201d FBI Special Agent in Charge Mark Remily said during a press briefing, adding that the manifesto left by the two \u201ccovered a wide aspect of races and religions.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, people who\u2019ve obtained and read their whole manifesto have claimed that the two were especially antagonistic toward Jews.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs is with everything else Jews unsurprisingly have an overly massive amount of representation when it comes to control and influence of the media,\u201d the two wrote. \u201cThis shows with mainstream News, Hollywood, social media, influencers and celebrities, TV advertising, books both fiction showing historical and current events and non fiction as entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis of course, is their main way of controlling the masses of the regular people, your everyday Joe if you will, because as we all know people today consume a lot of media so this game they play is within subliminal messages, repetition of their agenda, and controlling the narrative,\u201d the pair added.<\/p>\n
