Part of me thinks they shouldn't. It will encourage fame seeking nutters.
Yeah it does. And I'd draw a very nuanced line here about the cost/benefits of doing this. If we have another alt-right mass shooter with a manifesto, no don't give them any fame, the cost of this far outweighs the benefits of releasing it when the public already knows alt-right groups are preaching harmful and extreme rhetoric.
Now in this particular instance, I think a very large section of the population has no idea how toxic the trans rhetoric is because they get all their news from the NYT and MSNBC (my family for example), and the public benefit of informing people as to the nature of this ideology outweighs the costs of further publicizing this shooter.
