The female school shooter, who gunned down students and teachers before turning the gun on herself in Wisconsin, was named by officials on Monday night.

Natalie 'Samantha' Rupnow, 15, killed a student, a teacher, and then herself at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison shortly before 11am on Monday.

Rupnow's alleged manifesto has been circulating on social media. Police said they have not confirmed the document's validity.

Two people are currently fighting for their lives in hospital after the rampage.

Rupnow - who died from a self-inflicted gun wound on the way to hospital after the school shooting - opened fire in a mixed-grade study hall, police said.

Follow along for DailyMail.com's live updates of the ongoing situation.

Was she taking psychotropic drugs or male hormones?

Leave it to the UK Media to share the truths that dare not be spoken this side of the pond.

“21:50
‘I don’t know if she was transgender’
Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes said that he ‘doesn’t know’ if Natalie Rupnow was transgender - and said that he doesn’t think it ‘matters,’ after rumors swirled online following the tragic shooting.

‘It is of no consequence at this time,’ he told a press conference on Monday night.”

“What difference, at this point, does it make?”

Good questions. I was thinking about a bad-apple counselor or therapist.

She shows a lot of confidence in her justifications. Rehearsal can do that.

Otherwise, her stuff (if genuine) sounds legitimately schizo to my ear.

Prayers to her family if adolescent schizophrenia is the case. It’s hard for a parent to come out whole after something like this.

I’d say the former.

It says she died in the ambulance, not that she shot herself there.

Her manifesto sounds insane but she looks like a boy. There needs to be a disclosure what drugs she was on if any.

the chief also asked for compassion for the shooter. Horse crap. She killed people. She forfeited any compassion in taking other lives, then her own.

Rupnow—who shot and wounded herself at the crime scene—died on the way to the hospital.

maybe that’s what they were trying to say.

Police Chief calls her the Victim and says we need to have compassion for her. There’s a first among school shootings, that tells you something is going on here, and this Manifesto will be shielded by the authorities, again. The public looses interest in weeks.

The Shooter wanted all men exterminated from the Earth and women could start anew.

::::Was she taking psychotropic drugs or male hormones?::::

I'll be an armchair expert and say "yes"! Trans folks often have their brains pickled with hormones and a mix of psychotropic drugs. If they weren't wacky before, the transition "treatment" likely makes them wackier.

First, yeah, like that would work.

Women basically just hate men. Not to this extreme, but they do. For many reasons, but basically men remind them of their lacking/weakness in one way or another, their real dependency on men for survival. They really hate that because it usually keeps them from being in charge of things.
