Wolfe and his fiancée, who witnessed the alleged assault, believe the attack was related to Wolfe being transgender, according to court documents.

    Yes, in fact I do. The rate at which minority groups are at risk of violence is higher than non minority groups - sure - but: Guns make them less safe - they are more likely to die in the attempt to defend themselves, and dramatically more likely to die to their own hand and to intimate partners - which is why the household risk is relevant. Even though they are at greater risk of victimization, owning guns still makes them less safe, not more. Why are you pretending not to understand this?

      You pretended not to understand who I was talking about in order to avoid saying the word “transfolk.” You don’t give a shit about them. Conversation is over.

        And yet I have not avoided saying transfolk. I have told you I have great concern for trans people’s welbeing. I am the one who does not want to see more of them die to gun violence - unlike you.
