I won't post the picture of the journal pages... too inflammatory and disgusting.

Associated Press reported that the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has declined to confirm the authenticity of the leaked images.

Several US media outlets have quoted the lines purportedly written by Hale. The language spews hate.

"Wanna kill all you little c*******," one page from the manifesto reads. "Bunch of little f****** w/ your white privlages f*** you f******." says an entry, according to CBS News.

The mayor of Nashville, Tennessee, called Monday for an investigation after images purported to be the writings of a shooter who killed six people at The Covenant School in March were posted online.

The three images of writings, which were posted Monday by a conservative podcast and YouTube show host, are said to be from the shooter. NBC News has not confirmed whether the documents are authentic.

Audrey Hale, 28, was killed by police after having opened fire on March 27 at the private Christian school, which Hale had once attended.

2. I don't care who or what a mass shooter is...

Don't hold back stuff from the public.

3. I agree. Government withholding public information is bad

Denying multiple FOIA requests, often giving contradictory reasons for the denials, makes it look like government has something to hide. Government should not refuse to turn over otherwise disclosable records because government thinks the petty citizenry "can't handle the truth." And I do believe had the shooter been male, or worse a right-wing male, those writings (it wasn't a "manifesto" like Brenton Tarrant's, but was more like diary entries) would have been released or at least leaked way sooner.

Government in the sunshine and all that.
