We have all noticed the sudden increase in transgender violence. It most likely is an organized response.

Experts have been researching the root cause of their violence against others.

One expert suggest caution against associating all trans as being inherently violent. And of course that makes sense, not all are.

"Dr. Lauren Schwartz, an Oklahoma psychiatrist, cautioned against the assumption that transgender individuals are inherently violent.
“I would be very cautious to link it directly to a violent act, of something like murdering someone or assassinating someone,” she told The Epoch Times.

Schwartz said individuals experiencing gender confusion are already vulnerable, and affirming their beliefs does not appear to improve their situation. Instead, she noted, their conditions may worsen.

“Steroids, and testosterone specifically ... I do think all of them put these kids and young adults in horribly compromised medical situations, even if it has nothing to do with harm to others,” she said.

“If you look at mass public shootings since 2018, what you find is about 5 percent of the mass public shooters were trans individuals, and given that their share of the population is about 0.7 percent, they’re obviously overrepresented,” John Lott, president of the Crime Prevention Research Center, told The Epoch Times.

A 2022 report from the Williams Institute at the University of Southern California showed 1.6 million people aged 13 and older (or 0.6 percent) identify as transgender in the United States."


 
The proportion of violence against trans people is statistically high. It's up 14% over the last year, at 2.5 incidents every day, even though they represent far less than 1% of the population. Murders of trans people doubled over the past four years. Perhaps this correlates with the fact that the gender fascists in the GOP spent $215 million on anti-trans political advertising during the 2024 election cycle. Again, against a group that is less than 1% of the population. Bigotry remains alive and well among conservatives, including the posters of this board.

This is America. Live and let live. Stop hatemongering and stop trying to erase or eliminate people whose life choices you disagree with.
 
I was just thinking we haven't seen a trans thread title in a few days.
This OP never fails to get out his magnifying glass and inspect/dream about other people's genitals. It's usually a zerohedge triggered rant, but he also is brainwashed by epoch.....some sad shit right there, sad in a funny way. :p

Your article conveniently leaves out guns as one of the factors. I have no problem with discussion about the reasons for the increased factors. But conservatives just can't bring themselves to admit that having 500 million guns floating around America may just contribute to the problem.

Thanks for posting something that has zero to do with the topic. 👌

It's relevant to the topic, sorry you don't like it and would prefer to spread hate.

I don't think it has anything to do with hormones. Transgender people feel under attack right now. They've been demonized and scapegoated by both conservatives and the US government, so it makes sense that some transgender individuals would lash out violently in response.

Doesn’t make sense at all. Plenty people feel they are demonized but do not commit murder as a result.

Most transgender people aren't committing murder either. Certain individuals are just more prone to violence.

Maybe if wingnut scumbag pieces of shit didn't treat certainly people so poorly.

But they are committing murder at a disproportionate rate relative to their population. Not any different than how blacks are overrepresented within the criminal justice system.

Like how white males do most of the mass shootings.

I think it's actually very different. I haven't heard anything about transgender people being overrepresented in crime overall. Just mass shootings specifically.

Correct. Overrepresentation is the point.

Men, in general, do this.

Men commit more than 90% of all violent crime, including murder, in this country despite being only 50% of the population.

And yet, I never see you coming on here to talk about the “man” problem in the US.

Always a small minority subsection of the population.


Why do you CONSTANTLY look to create division and punch down on minorities? Does it make you feel superior or something? Give you a dopamine hit?

What’s your motivator?

Transgender shootings also seem to be a much more recent development, whereas black crime has been disproportionately high for a very long time. That leads me to believe that the contemporary political environment is at least partially causing the recent increase in transgender violence.

Are you refering to the current government repression of them and our historica repression of blacks?

I'm sorry to see this conversation triggers you so much. Your non-sequitur is noted and summarily dismissed.
 
From the article
their share of the population is about 0.7 percent
Yet they make up about 90% of the threads the OP makes
