There are two local homicides on this list as advocates make an important argument that this vulnerable community needs protection. Take a look:
At least 18 transgender people have been killed this year in what experts are calling an 'epidemic'
Fatal violence against transgender people is an "epidemic," experts at the American Medical Association (AMA) said. In 2019, at least 18 transgender people have been killed, according to the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) According to the AMA, violence against transgender people in the US is on the rise, particularly effecting black transgender women.
Good info but wrong place to share it.
ReplyDeleteReaders of this blog have very little compassion for anybody but President Trump.
Eighteen people out of a population of over 330 million have been murdered and that's an epidemic?
ReplyDeleteIdentity politics at its best.
So lets have some marches and protests and DEMAND that someone (anyone) do something about this!
Maybe the same group who bullied the JoCo city councils to pass unnecessary "anti-discrimination" ordinances and who now are uptight about a polling place being placed in a Catholic church can "lead" the way.
The self-absorbed demands never end.
THE FALLACY OF SPECIAL-INTEREST GROUP CRIME VICTIM REPORTING
ReplyDeleteIf a violent crime has been committed against any individual, it should be investigated.
The glaring error in this article is the claim that transgender people were targeted for violence because of their sexual orientation/identity, without providing any evidence to back-up that false claim.
An analogy: Just this week in the KC metro, two young children were killed by gunfire in a 2-day span.
Is it fair and accurate to write that "fatal violence against children is epidemic as they're increasingly targeted"?
WORDS STILL MATTER
Is this violence against transgender people or the results from transgender people making more bad choices in life?
ReplyDeleteAre the victims whores and/or drug addicts?
ReplyDeleteDangerous life, trans or not trans.
Not everyone wants a blowjob from some dude dressed like a girl.
ReplyDeleteAn epidemic is having 111 murders in KCMO so far in 2019.
ReplyDeleteLeave the Trans,alone and every body else. A bunch of young punks, IF you are Trany,KEEP a self defense weapon. Under your,dress. And shoot them where it counts. If attack.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Trans need to quit shoving it in our faces.
