Are you a trans American in Trump's America?

Trans Americans are turning to guns for protection. They are hearing stories from their trans friends in red states: being forced to use bathrooms that didn’t match their gender identities; having gender markers switched on their drivers’ licenses. They see kids losing access to hormones and fear adults would be next. They fear being attacked and killed. Most of them are big supporters of gun control. But now, they, who voted for Kamala Harris, changed their view on guns when Donald Trump was reelected.

Do regular Americans care now that trans Americans are getting their just desserts?

Everyone has the right to keep and bear arms...unless you've done something criminally vile to lose that right. I hope the trans community recognizes that most conservatives don't hate them, and respect their right to live their lives as they wish. We should all possess enough libertarianism within us to preserve the peace.

But also realize that it's not fair for M2F trans to compete in women's sports, and that women may not want them in their locker rooms or bathrooms.

Just don't use firearms as a justification for violence because you believe you are part of an oppressed class of individuals.

@WillaKissing Is M2F an official term of reference now?

@sree251 It must be for this post. No one else not even "You" wrote out Male too Female their little buddy!
@sree251 agreed
Turning to guns? Not new for people in the LGBTQ society.. Ever heard of the “ Pink Pistols”?

Just a point: remember there have been school shootings by trans people, so it’s not a new phenomenon.
@sree251Cite you one instance? Where the hell have you been the last few years? Here’s
a clue: TENNESSEE. Look it up!
Another clue: Manifesto.
@sree251
You’ve be been CITED!

I have guns for protection. They can as well. Doesn't bother me in the least. The place will be safer with men out of women's bathrooms, and kids not being force fed hormones to destroy their young lives to please mentally deficient parents.
Kids shouldn't be allowed access to HRT if they're prohibited from tattoos, alcohol, e-cigars, and cigarettes.

This is good, marginalized groups need to stay armed. Nobody else is going to defend us.

You mean by "regular Americans", do you mean Americans who use Metamucil to remain regular? As opposed to Americans who do not get enough fiber in their diets?

What's like in your country?

I get my fiber through an all American diet for US servicemen. Steel-cut oats.

What's like in your country?

Depends on where you live. I move around a lot, from trans country to Trump country.

Where do you live in your country?

I had a classmate in school that took his own life as revenge against a gym teacher, for not letting him be the team picker one day, the kid was a super jock and was the captain on every school sports team he played for.

What are you implying?
@sree251 You think you know it all, figure it out.

I cannot figure out dissociations.
Good. Everyone should own a few guns to protect themselves from the right-wing militias that are common in fascist countries.

@oldguy73 very true
Trans people are turning to guns for self defense because they know their persecutors have guns. Is that a surprise?
@sree251 Trans people are being persecuted on a systemic level.

@BohemianBabe
Trans people are being persecuted on a systemic level.

Trans people? Are they a category opposed to normal people who persecute trans people?
@sree251 I have no idea what you mean.
