Breaking: OpenAI Staff Wanted to Warn The Police About Trans School Shooter Months Ago—What the Company Did Next Is Disgusting
You know that infuriating moment when a powerful tech company sees clear warning signs of a mass shooting, has employees begging to alert authorities, but chooses to do nothing because of “policies” and corporate cowardice? That’s the bombshell revelation from the Wall Street Journal about OpenAI and the Canadian trans school shooter Jesse Van Rootselaar (also known as Roberta Dorgano). Employees flagged his ChatGPT queries describing gun violence scenarios over several days in June 2025, and wanted to contact Canadian police. Management overruled them, deciding the activity didn’t meet their threshold for a “credible and imminent risk of serious physical harm to others.” They banned his account but stayed silent — until after he murdered 10 people (including himself) and injured 25 others on February 10, 2026. Only then did OpenAI reach out to the RCMP to “support the ongoing investigation.”
This is disgusting. OpenAI had the data, the red flags, and internal voices urging action, but chose to protect the user instead of potential victims. The shooter was already known to local police for mental health concerns, and guns had been temporarily removed from his home. Yet OpenAI — the company behind one of the most powerful AI tools in the world — decided it wasn’t their responsibility to say anything. Their excuse? The queries didn’t cross some arbitrary line in their policy manual. Meanwhile, the shooter was openly promoting transgender ideology, displaying the trans flag, and posting disturbing content online. The pattern of trans shooters (Nashville, Tumbler Ridge, now this) keeps repeating, and tech companies keep looking the other way to avoid being called “intolerant.”
The shooter entered the rink where a family member was playing in a high school hockey game and opened fire, killing three people — including his wife and a family friend — before turning the gun on himself. Three other relatives remain critically injured. A heroic bystander tried to wrestle the gunman to the ground, likely saving lives. The shooter’s daughter later said her father “was very sick” with mental health issues.
OpenAI’s decision not to report is part of a larger problem with Big Tech and the trans movement. Companies prioritize “inclusivity” and fear of backlash over public safety. They ban accounts for wrongthink but stay silent when users show clear signs of planning violence. This is the same crowd that censors conservatives for “misinformation” while letting disturbed individuals spiral in private chats.
The left’s response? They’ll blame guns, “society,” or “toxic masculinity” while ignoring the mental health and ideological red flags. OpenAI’s “thoughts and prayers” statement after the massacre is too little, too late. They had months to act. Instead, they protected the user’s privacy and let the tragedy happen.
This is why we need real accountability for Big Tech. When AI companies have access to people’s darkest thoughts and choose silence, they become complicit. The shooter was radicalized by an ideology that told him his feelings trumped reality, and OpenAI helped keep that bubble intact. The victims’ families deserve answers — and the public deserves to know why these warning signs were ignored.
The left seethes when called out, but this failure is undeniable. OpenAI chose politics over lives. That’s the real story here.

I’m shrewd, passionate, learned and energetic, God-fearing and patriotic. I’ve done a fine job reintroducing good old American conservatism to a new generation of Americans. I’ve earned the love and friendship of many, the hatred of some, but the respect of all.
Genius, talk us into WANTING someone to monitor ai conversations.
This enemy is brilliant.
