guns, transphobia, hate speech, rambling 

Also Fuck Lily Cade and the fucking horse shit she rode in on. Fuck the BBC for publishing that hate speech. I am so fucking sick of this shit. It is every fucking piece of hate rhetoric from the last 2 centuries on fucking repeat just with word replacement.

If you have ever fucking wondered why I have fucking clung to firearms ownership and training as like one of the last vestiges of where I grew up this shit is why. "I'd execute every last one of them personally [trans-women]." Holy fuck.

Fucker that let that go to fucking release should be kicked repeatedly somewhere tender. Because this is going to get people hurt and it is going to get people fucking killed. The police aren't going to fucking help anyone but Capital. Your fucking neighbors aren't going to fucking help you.

I can't process or understand this fucking Hate, where it comes from. The desperate need to Other humans. But I can fucking grok the results of it and how allowing people to brazenly speak it will cause it to spread and cause violence, suffering and death. For no other fucking reason than being different.

So who do trans-folk have to turn to? Fucking nobody other than ourselves and handful of LBGTQIA Allies but lets be honest. The chance that someone who is not in our situation will stand up and try to stop violence at the risk of their body is incredibly low.

I'm getting ramble-y but to be clear, I understand that for the average trans-person having a firearm or any sort of defensive weapon is dangerous, because we are so traumatized by the world that lots of us are at risk just by having such a tool in our homes but nobody else is going to defend us.

I have been miserably angry at the world and everyone all day.. so I might step away for the evening and maybe have some mood altering substances.
