Dallas transgender woman brutally beaten in broad daylight

It's very hard to imagine any legitimate justification for such a beating.

On the other hand, there is no reason to assume that the beating happened only or mainly because the victim is transgender. Fights after fender benders happen all the time. We don't really know what happened here, but the web-sphere is going to get outraged abouit it anyway.

As I mentioned last night, if I wasn't told this person was transgender I'd think I was looking at a large man brutally attacking a woman. The victim is obviously small framed and dressed feminine. So he either thought he was beating a woman or he knew he was beating a transgender. Either way it's wrong.
 
Who is president?

I rest my case.

Your willful ignorance and commitment to ignore historical precedence kicks your ‘case’ right square in the nuts.

According to what I have seen, transgenders and gays in the US have the highest per capita hate crime, higher than the hate crime targeting religious minorities like Muslims and Jews.

Here in the US, use of the wrong derogatory label turns an ordinary crime into a hate crime. Unless the victim is a woman and then it doesnt seem to count. And Jesse Smollet is now a one of those reported hate crimes in the US.
 
The assumption is made that because the person is transgendered, that was the reason for the attack.

We don't know what really happened here.

Naturally and that's the problem. If a trans beat up a hetero, do we assume it's because of being hetero?
 
Transgender woman assaulted by '''mob''' in Dallas, officials say

Transgender woman assaulted by 'mob' in Dallas, officials say

Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said he was “extremely angry about what appears to be mob violence against this woman.”
==========================================
This country has really gone to blazes since Trump got elected. It's now every MAGA for himself.

Trump must be very proud.

This is his idea of making America Great Again.

The crowd was black.

The participants in the fight were black.

Most blacks are Democrats.

Dallas voted Democrat in 2016

This is the Democrats fault if anyone not Trump's.

This is a road rage incident not a political incident. :roll:

Sooo you are saying Trump is a racist. (he would not applaud a black person for doing something he would applaud a white person for) You do have a point.
 
Trump's military transgender ban just went into effect this past Friday. It would appear that you may be the one who is a little slow.

I didnt see any indication from the guy being beaten that he wanted to join the military.

It's political because POTUS has chosen to politicize the LGBT issues with his absurd denial of them as service members and his base's hideous commentary about lgbt folks.
 
From the little video of the actual car crash that precipitated this beating it looks like it could be an incident of road rage......

Road rage plus the wrong derogatory label equals hate crime in the US.

What "base's hideous commentary about lgbt folks". And the denial is no more absurd than the multitude of other mental disorders that excludes people from joining the military.
 
I think people that call themselves Christians would brawl in the street but I don't think true Christians would brawl in the street.

People who consider themselves Christians have never been able to agree on who is a "true" one and who isn't. The only thing you can count on is that the fake Christian is invariably the other guy.
 
Whether it shows hatred doesn't matter, it is active discrimination against transgender individuals.

Discrimination against those who have a mental disorder that excludes them from serving in the military. Transgender is one of many disorders. Attention Deficit Disorder can exclude you from the military. Nothing special about the transgendered that neccessitates an exception for them.

No...actually I’m pretty sure that what he was saying is the comments made attributing this attack to Trump are ****ing moronic.

But I could be wrong.

Disagreeing with someone is not 'prejudice'. Having a moral stand is not 'prejudice'. Its pretty ****ing pathetic that you think it is.

Oh..believe me...I know that there are a lot of idiot leftists that roil in their own hatred and self loathing and have no problem venting their own religious bigotry and hatred. And thats all well and good. What we know about a large number of them is they make up the rolls of the ever increasing number of people that need psychotropics to get out of bed and function in the morning and have so completely ****ed up their own values and belief systems that they have created some 113 different gender types, created an atmosphere where idiots dance in the street in assless chaps with dildoes glued to their forehead to show their 'pride', have men adopting effeminate affects, cause an increasing number of men and women to become so mind****ed about their own identities that they are permanently disfiguring themselves in what progressives call 'progress' and have created so many ****ed up forms of trans 'isms' that a good number of people no longer know what gender, race, or even species that they are.

Yay...'progress'.

The only pathetic thing is to believe that there is no prejudice and there is just a difference of opinions! The latter CAN be a sign of prejudice

If I think you are a piece of s*** because of your sexual orientation, or of what you do in your personal life, even though your actions do not harm me or other people, this is prejudice. If I disagree with a neoNazi regarding if the Jews in Germany were vermin or not , this does not mean that there is no prejudice, and there is just a difference of opinions between me and him!

Yes, we have read that many transexuals have psychological issues and a high rate of suicides, but social rejection and prejudice may be at the root of that problem, and we have the responsibility to treat them in the same way we treat the white straight guys who f** up their life with painkillers, alcohol and opioids.

When prominent Evangelical leaders spread rumors that gays use rings to prick our fingers and transmit AIDS to us, or when asshole Christians (in the same video I posted earlier) are concerned about transferring in a car a person who has Aids (but never seem to worry of transferring a person who has hepatitis), it is obvious that some people have cultivated an unreasonable level of fear of gays and transexuals.

Such "difference of opinions" about how dangerous or corrupt are certain people are often clear signs of prejudice unless the accusers can show clear evidence that gays and transexuals are really dangerous to the rest of us because if they cannot provide such evidence, then I do not see why a straight person should be more concerned about the safety of his family from the danger of gays than from the danger of Catholics who cannot address pedophilia.

Why do you keep bringing up gays, were gays the ones attacking the transgendered individual?

Because bigotry based on an individual's sexual orientation affects both gays and transgenders. So, I make general comments about this form of bigotry!
 
Dallas transgender woman brutally beaten in broad daylight

DALLAS (AP) — Police canvassed a Dallas neighborhood during the weekend in search of anyone who may have witnessed the brutal beating of a transgender woman in an attack that happened in broad daylight in front of a crowd of people and that was caught on cellphone video.

Detectives were seeking clues in hopes of identifying the woman’s assailant or assailants, police said in a statement.
=============================================
They could just look for guys wearing MAGA hats but in TX they don't have enough room in the jails for all they would find. Consider the irony.

'The stars at night are big & bright...'
What MAGA hats? I don't see any MAGA hats.
Boy you really do stretch things, just to get an anti-Trump sound-byte in, don't you.
I see a black guy beating the crap out of, what looks like a black woman.
I read that it was after a traffic accident the details of which I don't know.
But you got your sound-byte in and exercised your anti-Trump virtue-signalling so...I guess your good for the day huh?

What utter horse ****.

So basically the thread doesn't matter, you have your issue and you introduce it when you want. How awkward.

The thread does matter, and in my opinion it is very appropriate to make comments related to the issue of prejudice based on sexual orientation. I find it strange that among all the different comments that have been introduced in this thread, including comments about Trump and MAGA hats you chose to see my comment as being inappropriate. I must have hit a nerve somewhere in my comments about bigotry.
 
How the **** do you take a video of a bunch of black men beating a transgendered person down and then start trying to tie in Trump? I mean...are you THAT ****ing dishonest?

The answer is a resounding "Yes".
 
What the hell are you doing? Do ever come in here with facts that throw off the narrative again.

Not the right group that he wants to commit hate crimes. That's why he has to downplay it.

Again...your whining and cries about prejudice might have some weight if leftists in this country didnt swallow **** for democrats that were opposed to gay marriage while spewing their vitriol and hatred towards republicans with the same positions as the democrats.

There are many reasons people can be opposed to homosexuality as a practice and gay marriage. Its obviously a foreign concept for you but you can indeed love the sinner and abhor the sin, without prejudice. Homosexuality IS a sin in the eyes of most religions. Homosexuality also defies the very basic platform of science and nature. The male Tab A is supposed to work in the female Slot A to produce Baby B. I know...thats a pretty simple graphic, but I figure since you struggle with complex, its probably needed. And at the end of the day...most of us dont give a merry **** WHAT you do...or who does it to you. We just dont have any obligation to applaud it and call it 'right'. If that hurts your feelings or you call that prejudice, too ****ing bad.

Bull****. Ive posted numerous videos. Black people have been beating the **** out of transgendered people long before Trump even came onto the scene. This isnt 'political' at all. it DOES however put on full display your complete TDS.





That ****in Obama and his attacking gay and trans people caused all of this...right?

You focus on the sexual orientation of the victim without recognizing how prevalent road rage can be. I always figured that folks of all kinds were just like everyone else or is there some kind of special immunity that being transgendered gives one to road rage? It is you who are surfing a tangent of your own creation. The OP is going to post stupid comments, why should I feel it necessary to point out them out, there are plenty of others who post more than they read who can point that out.
