Pretty sure the goal is "all of them".
it 100% is. we have to fight back because you can't reason with genociders, they must be stopped by any means necessary
Nah, just the weird ones. (/s if that isn't obvious)
The people who are pushing for these laws, organizing these harassment groups, calling in bomb threats, and pushing their hatred and violence into politics - they're the same people who were doing this to gay kids.
Pretty sure that still happens to gay kids in Oklahoma too.
A teenage non-binary child was brutally gang beaten and passed away suddenly the next day. Given the situation, including many severe head traumas, I doubt the toxicology report will show anything. If you've read the reports, it is downright grizzly what those girls did to them. Unbelievable violence and cruelty. The injuries inflicted were undoubtedly life threatening.
Even if, let's say, the toxicology reports show that they did take their life. What exactly does that change? The assaulters beat them within an inch of their life. How can you imagine someone could go on living after that happened to them? Is it any less murder because the victim literally lost the will to live after being brutalized by 3 of their peers? It's just disgusting that those girls aren't in holding cells right now. They tortured a kid to death. I had to stop reading the reports at several points. It's horrifying. Even considering the assaulters were all also minors, it doesn't in any way diminish the horrific nature of their actions.
This is the result of MAGA. There is blood on the hands of Chaya Raichik (libs of Tik Tok), of Matthew Walsh, of Candace Owens, of Kevin Stitt, of the entire movement of trans hatred. This is and always was their goal.
the police support the killing, that's why. it's a genocide
That's gonna be the mirriam webster word of the year. Been getting werk lately.
Holy shit, that article outlines an incredible level of incompetence, dear lord ...
Worse, competent evil.
Unfortunately, valid comment.
Accountability needs to stop being optional.
Any public official who lies to the public willingly needs to be given the death penalty. All of the officials who refused to act on credible reports should be tried with negligent homicide.
They should have an independent autopsy.
The mother has already stated she intends to seek a fully independent investigation, with a second round with witnesses as well.
Really really sad & terrifying she is going to have to go out of pocket to not just seek justice for her child, but to simply get a straight answer on the record for cause of death.
Regardless of the COD, the assault should carry hate crime changes at a minimum.
