NATW Podcast: Cole Allen - Shooter's Manifesto
Cole Allen wrote more than a thousand words before he started running.He opened with "Hello everybody." He closed by thanking the people in his life for 31 years of love. And somewhere in between, he laid out exactly who he was planning to go through to reach his targets.In this episode, Jack Fox takes you through the full text of the manifesto Allen sent to his family and what he finds isn't just what Allen wrote. It's what he didn't.Allen ranks his targets. He names a specific exception. He sets out rules of engagement in careful categories. But the people he loves? His parents, his colleagues, his students, the friends he'd known for years? Not one of them gets a name. They are there but they are kept at a distance, even in his final words to them.Jack Fox also takes you through the structure of the document itself. Allen builds a formal objection and rebuttal section, arguing against himself point by point before he leaves the room. You'll see what that structure tells us about where his mind was, and what it means when someone spends more words on the people they are not targeting than on those they are.This is a document written by someone who wanted to be understood. Jack Fox examines whether the words he chose actually achieved that.Want more from Never A Truer Word?
