Antioch High School Shooting Details Emerge, But Media Expected to Bury the Story (Video)
NASHVILLE, TN – In a heartbreaking incident that has once again highlighted the selective outrage of the mainstream media, a shooting at Antioch High School in Nashville has left one student dead and several others injured. The event unfolded around 11:15 AM local time when 17-year-old Solomon Henderson, a student at the school, opened fire in the cafeteria, killing 16-year-old Josselin Corea Escalante and wounding another student before taking his own life. Despite the severity of the incident, the story has been conspicuously underreported, likely due to its incompatibility with the narrative the liberal media prefers to push.

According to a spokesperson for the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department (NMPD), the call reporting the shooting came in at approximately 11:11 AM. The situation was quickly contained, but not before the damage was done. Here is the initial report from Breaking911:
. The identity of the shooter and the victim were released by the MNPD, with Chief John Drake providing further details during an afternoon press conference. However, the media’s silence is deafening, especially when compared to their fervor in covering incidents that align with their political agendas.
What’s particularly striking about this case is the background of Solomon Henderson. In a twist that challenges the mainstream narrative, Henderson’s writings, discovered by authorities and reported by NewsChannel5 Nashville, revealed a disturbing mindset. He expressed shame in his racial identity, writing, “I was ashamed to be Black.” His manifesto also included anti-Semitic sentiments, with references to the Goyim Defense League, a neo-Nazi white supremacist group. This detail might explain the media’s reluctance to cover the story extensively, as it does not fit the typical profile they often exploit for political gain.
Henderson’s writings also detailed his plans, including a layout of the school, weapons he intended to use, and his desire to livestream the attack. Here is a video from the scene provided by Breaking911:

. He had been contemplating this violence for months, expressing deep personal despair, stating, “I was so miserable. I wanted to kill myself. I just couldn’t take anymore. I am a worthless subhuman, a living breathing disgrace.” His connection to The Covenant School shooter from 2023, another tragic event, was also noted in his writings, showing a pattern of disturbed fascination with previous school shootings.
This incident, occurring in the shadow of the recent closure of the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention under the Trump administration, might have been expected to fuel the gun control debate. However, given the shooter’s background and motivations, which do not align with the narrative to vilify conservative policies or figures, it seems the story is destined to be buried. Here’s another report from Breaking911 on the incident:

. The media’s selective coverage becomes evident as they fail to capitalize on this tragedy to advance their usual political talking points.
As conservatives, we must question why such a story, with all its complexities and implications, isn’t receiving the attention it deserves. Could it be because Solomon Henderson doesn’t fit the mold of the ‘typical’ school shooter that the media loves to portray in their relentless campaign against the Second Amendment and conservative values? This incident is a stark reminder of the biases that permeate our newsrooms and the lengths to which they will go to suppress stories that challenge their political narratives.
Here are some additional perspectives from social media on the incident:

President Trump’s administration has always been about protecting American values, including the right to bear arms, which is why incidents like this are often sidelined by a media eager to push a different agenda. We must remain vigilant and ensure that the truth, in all its forms, is not buried by those who wish to control the narrative for their political gain. As more details emerge, we will continue to follow this story closely, committed toOops, something broke. Talk to me later?
