Why hasn't the Nashville school shooter's manifesto been released like all of the others?

    He survived his attack and apparently he provided his "manifesto" to the media afterwards (who decided to publish it because; money :( ).

    Not knowing what the manifesto says-- your illogical bias is showing. That is to say, there is no rational explanation as to why you or anyone could be as sure of the actual reason for the holdup, as you clearly seem to be: confident enough, to gauge that the "far more likely reason" is what you state, about the "establishment narrative." If the manifesto were, for example, a call to all fellow trans people, to engage in violent acts of retributive resistance, and authorities were concerned that others might be swayed by that message, that would be a perfectly legitimate reason-- the desire to maintain public order-- to hold off, for the time being, releasing it.

    I am not saying that I think this would be a consequence of its release, but that does not mean that authorities see it the same as I do, especially since, as I've already pointed out, I do not know what the manifesto says.
    IOW, what you suggest, is one possibility, only. You have no real basis, for gaging its likelihood, unless perhaps you are an authority on manifestos, and a student of the history of government actions, pertaining to manifestos of the past?

    If you didn't know when you started this thread it should be obvious to you now why it hasn't been released. Look in this thread to see who wants it released and who wants to...hey look! A squirrel!

    Google searches? No but that's the whole point, it's not anywhere online. Previous ones were.

    What previous shooter manifestos were accessible by the public only because the police had the only copy and released it?

    Yes, so your argument is that it should be released, and I agree that it should.
    But it seems that we cannot compare it to any of the previous shooter manifesto's which have been published online by the shooter himself.

    Also why the media shouldn't even NAME the pieces of human waste.

    Released by the killer, or by the authorities?

    Are you accusing the FBI director of being politically biased?

    I am saying if he is going to be politically biased, it would be for the right... not the left... as he is a Republican, a Trump pick

    To be fair to @DEFinning, he gave a possible reason in the post that you quoted in your above reply.

    Totally possible, but then surely the logic would follow, that it should NEVER be released.

    I was thinking of manifestos composed by the killer and released by the authorities to MSM like Ted Kaczynski's ("Unibomber") manifesto(1). the same source lists 1,000 different manifestos.

    Can you think of a more recent manifesto that the authorities allowed to be published?

    Thanks,

    Well as has been correctly pointed out, they're pretty much always published online by the pieces of human waste shooters themselves.
