I think the term "beard" can be applied here.

There was only 9 dead including the shooter. He/she was a born male transitioning to female. This has certainly fuelled a lot of hate about trans people. Our flags are at 1/2 mast for a week in support of the victims. Most were 12-15 years old. They included his/her mother and siblings. Police had been at his/her home several times to deal with his/her emotional issues. But in Canada it is very hard to take someone off the street into psychiatric care without their consent.
