Minneapolis trans Catholic school shooter wrote Satanic symbols, other mass shooters’ names on guns

“This message brought to you by Blackrock and Exxon Mobil, sponsored by Pabst Blue Ribbon," Westman says off the top in the video, which has been circulating online. Police have confirmed that at least two children were killed and 17 others injured, including 14 minors, after the gunman opened fire at the Catholic school during morning mass.

Westman’s weapons were covered with handwritten messages, taunts, extremist references, and tributes to past mass shooters. Messages on Weapons and Magazines included:

KAYNBRED, A reference to Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza’s online username;

“I’m the Woker, baby, why so queerious?” — a play on the Joker’s line "why so serious?"

"Я террорист” (“I am a terrorist”) — in Cyrillic;

“Я комбин” (“I am combine”) — Likely miswritten, to reference Columbine;

“Where is your God now?” — a biblical taunt found in Psalms 42 and 115.
