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.

It bothers me that this happened at a hockey game and not a speed running convention or something. Looney troons are very rare and congregate in fringe areas. I was blessed enough to not see a single troon when I went to the airport last year.
 
I wouldn't be shocked to learn that Roberto worked there considering he's also frequenting a gym in Brunswick, Maine.
Interesting.

Late-in-life macho military tranny is one of the standard archetypes. They're bullies who've found a way to stay alpha as their bodies fail them, demanding everyone call them ma'am as their claim to "sir" fades.

Some supposed right-wing guys—Steve Sailer and Richard Hanania come to mind—write weirdly admiringly of that kind of troon, the old CEO in a dress, etc. Slight chance this dude wasn't incoherent, or the boomer version of a 764 weirdo or whatever, but inspired.
 
MATI but we need immediate common-sense tranny control. I'm talking about mass detransistion.
They're turning autists into genocidal maniacs and this need to be stopped.
 
Because they are negative attention whores who WANT you to hate them because that, in some way, perversely arouses positive feelings in them
I have a relative who is Both. They don’t care if the attention they get is good or bad as long as they get attention.
Kevin Sorbo is responsible for driving this dude berserk. Search for motive is over.
Off topic but that troon congressman is horrifying to look at.
It's not necessarily great for the right because every shooting is a decent talking point for gun control
Notice how this happens RIGHT as there is about to be major gun control legislation looked at by the Supreme Court?
Becuase of this:
The second your rights are contingent on your mental health is the second the left declares disagreeing with them to be a mental illness.
Bingo.
If you could provide an example of someone sane having their guns unlawfully seized I'd be interested to hear it.
FPSRussia.
We still don't really know Tyler Robinson's true political beliefs...
Yes we do. His friends and family have confirmed it multiple times.
Tyler was the typical “Son of a conservative family who goes off to college and comes back a rabid leftist”, it’s not uncommon at all.
 
Speaking of which, Massie hasn't commented on the shooting despite Newsweek pointing out that the troon was a fan of Massie.

Massie gets all the updoots on Reddit too at the moment because he's spearheading the effort to get the Epstein files released. These same Redditors despise Massie in regard to every other thing he's ever done politically and would call him a Nazi on any other occasion. Likewise, it's disingenuous to say the troon liking Epstein related Tweets from Massie indicates he's a "fan" of him broadly speaking. I bet he wasn't a fan of Massie voting against The Equality Act (LGBT "protections") or voting for the Protect Children’s Innocence Act (banning transitioning kids).
