#trans panic defense

I don’t want to show any links (mostly because most of them misgenders the victims and saying shit like “he (the MTF trans woman) lied about his gender”) and I don’t really want to go into any details I don’t think is necessary. Basically the “trans panic defense” is being used again for people who murders trans people.

The “trans panic defense” is a bullshit excuse for murdering trans people. It’s basically like saying that it’s “self-defense against the trans people if the trans person didn’t say that they’re trans because the cis person wouldn’t have consented if they knew.” (Even if the trans person in question had bottom surgery.)

And with all of the anti-trans bills passing (”child genital inspection” in Ohio, “don’t say gay” in Florida, etc) they may actually be able to get away with murder using that excuse.

This is truly disgusting. We are going into “genocide” for LGBT+ people, especially trans people. Be extra careful if you’re LGBT+.
