How can this keep happening at disproportional rates? Well, it starts with the institutions encouraging them to kill
You MAGA folks really do have to twist yourself up into a pretzel to find some twitter posts about transgender folks you think should scare the hell out of people don't you? OMG!!! Terrifying! That 0.1% of mass shooters in the history of mass shootings identifies as transgender or nonbinary. Here's some facts for ya. Few Mass Shooters Have Been Transgender September 17, 2025 The Gun Violence Archive, which uses a broader definition, lists five mass shootings by transgender or nonbinary people since January 2013. That’s less than 0.1% of the mass shootings it says happened in that period. https://www.factcheck.org/2025/09/few-mass-shooters-have-been-transgender/ GLAAD ALERT DESK DOCUMENTS MORE THAN 1,000 ANTI-LGBTQ INCIDENTS NATIONWIDE IN 2025 January 27, 2026 Despite making up less than 1% of the population, Americans and high-profile social media accounts baselessly frame trans people as “dangerous,” research consistently shows that transgender people are four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime. Pride 2025 saw a dramatic rise in incidents, making it one of the most dangerous years on record for LGBTQ Americans. The ALERT Desk tracked 268 incidents during June 2025, a nearly 400% increase from the 54 incidents tracked in June 2022 when GLAAD began its data collection. In 2025, the ALERT Desk tracked 1,042 anti-LGBTQ incidents in 47 US states and the District of Columbia. These included 128 acts of hateful vandalism, 76 violent assaults, 22 threats of mass violence, and 15 arson attempts. This is up from 984 incidents tracked in 2024, a 5% increase in hate. https://glaad.org/releases/glaad-al...1000-anti-lgbtq-incidents-nationwide-in-2025/ LGBTQ+ people are more than twice as likely to be a victim of gun violence than their cisgender and straight peers. LGBTQ+ students face bullying at more than double the rate of others. 43% of transgender youth have been bullied on school property. 29% of transgender youth have been threatened or injured with a weapon on school property, compared to 7% of cisgender youth. https://www.sandyhookpromise.org/resources/gun-violence-facts/lgbtq/ Transgender people (16+) are victimized over four times more often than cisgender people. In 2017-2018, transgender people experienced 86.2 victimizations per 1,000 people compared to 21.7 victimizations per 1,000 people for cisgender people. Transgender women and men had higher rates of violent victimization (86.1 and 107.5 per 1,000 people, respectively) than cisgender women and men (23.7 and 19.8 per 1,000 people, respectively). https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/press/ncvs-trans-press-release/
Deb, you're missing the point in your eagerness to move the goal post to defend your failing party. Democrats are complete garbage like the Republicans. First, let me reiterate - The vast majority of people do not care about men dressing up in womens clothes. Gender dysphoria has been around since since the dawn of time. This is not the issue. The problem is the far left lunatics in the Democrat party (and all leftist around the globe) have tried to not only normalize this behavior, but encourage it. The difference now is the low iq Democrats have been advocating and promoting GAHT's. This **** is extremely dangerous and toxic for a human body that is in its natural homeostasis state. And then you have the Democrat party constantly promoting violence, which is a recipe for disaster. Stop defending this lunacy
You are right. The vast majority of Americans don't give a damn about how people dress, or who they choose to love. My post was to that tiny minority of bigots in here who post non-stop about trans and gays. Sometimes you just have to call out their BS, and their ridiculous fear mongering. It's that type rhetoric that incites more hate and violence against the LGBTQ community. They are the real folks who are more at risk of being victims of violence, and not the other way around.
How do Democrats encourage transgender behavior? Edit: I am totally against transgenders competing against women, it's utterly ridiculous that people don't see you're punishing women by supporting that but it doesn't encourage transgender behavior
Trump just shared the same post twice in a row that said "Top DOJ official predicts Supreme Court will declare AR-15 rifles legal everywhere in America." How exciting, to make the mass shooter's weapon of choice legal everywhere in America. Thoughts and prayers for more victims to come.
I don't find anything humorous about that. As if our loose gun laws, gun sporting radicals, gang bangers, and mentally ill folks carrying around AR-15's and blowing away a bunch of people isn't happening enough for a civilized nation. Too many kids blown away in schools by some mentally ill person who easily got that weapon and you joke about buying them on Amazon. Disgusting.
I'm sure a lot are, and a lot aren't. As if it's not already easy enough to get them legally at gun shows and crap, you joke about it like it's cool. That's what irritated me, because I don't find America's gun problems and violence funny. I think you are probably smart enough to realize most of the biggest mass shootings and school shootings weren't even committed by gang bangers anyway. There are too many people with mental issues that can legally buy guns, and easy access to AR-15s, along with the GOP fighting tooth and nail againstt stronger gun laws sure as hell doesn't make that problem better.
