    So sorry about the death of the student. It's apparently not completely clear what happened. Transphobia is being blamed:

    Girls beat a boy to death......wow! The world has gone crazy! Can't even pretend to be a different sex and be safe anymore!

    This is what happens when we teach our children to hate.

    Not surprising with how red states are acting about the trans issue

    Fascinating mocking of a child dying — I bet you are pro-forced birth under the guise of pro-life as well?

    Just goes to show that some people aren't ready to have this gender stuff shoved down their throats, including high school girls. It's a shame the kid died, but he'd be alive today if his parents and school didn't appease his mental illness.

    Can’t tell you how much it’s appreciated that you read the story and immediately shamed the parents and not the completely shitty kids who did this or the school not calling an ambulance right away…..

    I'll admit I didn't read the link posted above, but I did read about this story earlier today at a different news site and what you said wasn't mentioned. With that said, was there anything regarding my comment your replied to not true?

    I bet the news article is not going to tell us the race of the students who beat the transgender to death, and is not going to show any pictures of the perpetrators.

    It's the same thing with that supposed "Racism against Asians" phenomena. They only focus on the victims.

    They’d also be alive if republicans didn’t express such open hatter for people just for being different. But without that, there’d be no need for the party at all

    Or maybe this had nothing to do with conservative Republicans.

    Again, I would direct you to consider the possible race of the perpetrators...

    lol the fact that their race could tell you they aren’t republicans does confirm part of my hypothesis….but fair enough, I’m making assumptions at why they were attacked.

    Unfortunate but the day between the fight and the death with in intervening ER trip has me wondering if this was an OD suicide.

    If a group of 16 year old black teens beat up a Hispanic transgender student in the school bathroom, would you think that it was because of messaging they got from Republicans?
    Is that really the first thing that would pop into your mind?

    Also, don't you think it might be a good idea to see a picture of the attackers (to compare to this trans person) before we rush to judgement? By that I am referring to their body size and strength.

    The main picture many of the news articles are showing of the victim makes her look young and small, but if you can find other pictures that show her looking older and bigger. So it does seem to me the media may be being just a little bit manipulative.

    So now following proven science is hateful? Show me some universally accepted scientific proof how a person can change genders. Not appearance; genders. If you want to see hateful, just look at a union picket line when someone tries to cross it.

    You have to understand just how many people on this forum either don't care about dead trans kids....or worse. It is an opportunity to attack the same people they always attack, rather than an opportunity to reflect on the sort of hatred that likely brought this about.

    Then the mommys and daddys of the girls won't be surprised if/when their little darlings are charged with negligent homocide, eh?

    Oh, if they are charged you can add "hate crime"to the charge.

    WTF does science or picket lines have to do with these girls beating a classmate to death?

    ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

    I know, you just can't help yourself.
