I had to read the article over several times to make sure what I was seeing wasn't just some sort of misprint.

Read over the article and take note of the use of personal pronouns. Schultz is not referred to as he, she, or it. Instead the words they, them, and themselves are used. Examples:

"The 21-year-old was transported to the hospital where they died soon after."

"Their mother, Lynne Schultz..."

"Lynne Schultz said though they were "scary smart," and planned to design biomedical devices after graduation, they also suffered from depression."

"They tried to commit suicide twice in the past by hanging. "

"Though the state's investigative bureau referred to the student as male, Schultz described themselves as "bisexual, nonbinary and intersex..."

There are several more instances where the third person plural is used to refer to Schultz. The third person plural is sometimes used as a singular pronoun in legal documents to refer to a generic person, but never to refer to a particular person as it is in this article.

I guess the acceptance of bizarre people and bizarre behavior has forced a certain segment of society to adopt bizarre language constructs to accommodate their social whims.

Tragic New Details About The Shooting Of Scout Schultz, The Nonbinary Georgia Tech Student Killed By Campus Police
Emily Blackwood

The Georgia Tech Police Department received a call around 11:17 p.m. Saturday night about reports of a person with a knife and a gun near campus.

Officers made contact with Scout Schultz, a politically active nonbinary fourth-year student who was president of the school's Pride Alliance club, studying computer engineering — and holding a pocket knife with a tucked in blade.

"Come on man, let's drop the knife," one of the four officers who surrounded Schultz said with their weapons drawn.

"Shoot me," Schultz said.

Despite police insisting for them to drop the knife, Schultz did not and instead moved towards the officers until one opened fire and shot them in the heart.

The 21-year-old was transported to the hospital where they died soon after.

A nearby student shot a video of the incident. Warning, it's pretty hard to watch.

Georgia Tech declined to comment on the incident, other than calling Schultz's death "tragic." Their mother, Lynne Schultz, said they hired a lawyer because they plan to speak out more about their child's death.

"Why didn’t they use some non-lethal force like pepper spray or Tasers?” she asked. It was later learned that campus police don't carry stun guns.

The family's lawyer, Chris Stewart, said the use of force was excessive and said he believed the student was having a mental breakdown and didn't know what to do.

Lynne Schultz said though they were "scary smart," and planned to design biomedical devices after graduation, they also suffered from depression. They tried to commit suicide twice in the past by hanging.

Though the state's investigative bureau referred to the student as male, Schultz described themselves as "bisexual, nonbinary and intersex," on the website for Pride Alliance.

The group held a candle vigil for their president for the past two years and released the following statement after learning of their death:

“They pushed us to do more events and a larger variety events, and we would not be the organization we are known as without their constant hard work and dedication,” the statement reads. “We love you Scout and we will continue to push for change.”

The Georiga Bureau of Investigation is currently looking into Schultz's death and the officer who shot Schultz has not been identified. Their parents want to know if that officer had any training in dealing with mentally impaired suspects.

f you or anyone you know is suffering from suicidal thoughts or feelings, we urge you to call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

In the end, though, the mortician knew that Schultz was male. There are some things that you can't escape in this life no matter how skilled the surgeon.

The operative word here is mental disorder. Like other unstable people that refuse to recognize their sex the poor guy attempted suicide several times before realizing success whether by his hand or some miscreant. Whomever penned the article might well be profoundly confused as well. What a shame.

I watched the video and thought "walks like a man, screams like a man", but had to read several articles to find a pronoun describing it as a him.

My heart aches for this young man and his family,I wish some of us who know what it means to be a man had been able to get to him when he was young enough to be taught right from wrong. Basic Biblical values of gender and marriage have worked for at least 2000 years if we consider just the New Testament. Far longer if we include the Old Testament.

The fact that he insisted on being reffered to as a plural being,not a singular individual just shows how far all this gender fluidity nonsense has taken us.

It is as if behavior which was until less than a decade ago considered abnormal, is suddenly and loudly proclaimed to be the new normal. And anyone with the audacity to suggest otherwise is relegated to the basket of deplorables .

May God help us to repent as a nation.

I like to say that I'll abide with what the coroner likely to put down on the death certificate. Of course in Oregon they'll probably put an X as an option for gender on death certificates next, just like our drivers licenses

The apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Liberalism IS a mental disorder, and this snowflake was the product of his upbringing.convey any sadness for what was self inflicted by both the snowflake, and his parents.

I do not

If someone doesn't want to be a he or a she the only alternative is it.

Absolutely sickening example of the PC insanity that has taken hold of our nation. More accurately, it's been imposed on our culture. They, them, etc., are plural. Misapplying these words only serves to butcher our language.

The attorney is worried about the campus carry act? Won't the background checks weed out the nutcase? If Scouts had gone to a gun store and written "nonbinary" under sex, would the store let him have the gun?

Maybe background checks are good for something!

Nah! Just the standard form answers would prove he was nuts.

The term I coined is PIG for Person of Indeterminate Gender. If you choose to be a PIG, then all references to you should be as an "it." "It" is gender neutral and thus is the correct pronoun.

I saw their father on TV. Goofy looking feminine acting middle aged guy with a long ponytail. I'm guessing they are Democrats and the kid had a liberal snowflake upbringing.

Another example of "societal decline brought on by liberalism" which is the root cause of most of the problems in our country today!
