Individual acts of assault/battery are wrong when they are malicious and demonstrate premeditation of anti-social behavior (though one is deeply inclined to wonder how many of these "threats" are sarcastic posts on social media opportunistically read otherwise to serve an agenda a la the case of over-reaction over Tweets calling for "white genocide" aka inter-racial marriage...) It's rather interesting that you seem incapable of addressing the demonstrable STATISTICAL AND SYSTEMIC level of violence of Black trans folx<https://www.thetaskforce.org/new-analysis-shows-startling-levels-of-discrimination-against-black-transgender-people/>: * Black transgender people had an extremely high unemployment rate at 26 percent, two times the rate of the overall transgender sample and four times the rate of the general population. * A startling 41 percent of Black respondents said they had experienced homelessness at some point in their lives, more than five times the rate of the general U.S. population. * Black transgender people lived in extreme poverty with 34 percent reporting a household income of less than $10,000 per year. This is more than twice the rate for transgender people of all races (15 percent), four times the general Black population rate (9 percent), and eight times the general U.S. population rate (4 percent). * Black transgender people were affected by HIV in devastating numbers. More than one-fifth of respondents were living with HIV (20.23 percent), compared to a rate of 2.64 percent for transgender respondents of all races, 2.4 percent for the general Black population, and 0.60 percent of the general U.S. population. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
