When a white man is murdered by a white man we need to “come together” and make sure we show our humanity

But when a Black man is murdered by a white man we know his 4th grade baking soda volcano didn’t erupt, he had a jaywalking ticket, and oh yeah let’s call him a thug who deserved it.

Hold my hand as I tell you this:

When someone hurts you and they apologize you have every right to

1. Refuse to accept it
2. Question what they are apologizing for
3. Question the validity and/or sincerity of said apology.

You were the person the offense happened to. You decide. YOU.

After Eden Knight committed suicide, she was buried and memorialized by her family as a "son", since her cisgender father, Fahad Ibrahim Alshathri, had her kidnapped out of the United States to Saudi Arabia and forcibly detransitioned.

How would that be recorded in suicide stats for trans people? 🔆
