A few weeks ago, on 7 February, the bullying allegedly erupted in violence when Nex suffered severe head injuries during a “physical altercation” at Owasso High School, according to the Owasso Police Department. Sue Benedict told The Independent she was called to the school that day to find Nex badly beaten with bruises over their face and eyes, and with scratches on the back of their head. Nex told her that they and another transgender student at Owasso High School had been in a fight with three older girls in a girls bathroom. Nex was knocked to the ground during the fight and hit their head on the floor, according to their mother.
Ms Benedict said she was furious that the school had failed to call an ambulance or the police. She said the school then informed her Nex was being suspended for two weeks. She took Nex to the Bailey Medical Center in Owasso for treatment. They spoke to a police school resource officer at the medical facility and were discharged. That night, Nex went to bed with a sore head and eventually fell asleep while listening to music, Ms Benedict said. On 8 February, Nex was getting ready to go to Tulsa with Ms Benedict for an appointment when they collapsed in the family living room. Ms Benedict called an ambulance, and EMT officers arrived to find Nex had stopped breathing. Nex was declared dead that evening in hospital.

“Nex did not see themselves as male or female,” Ms Benedict said. “Nex saw themselves right down the middle. I was still learning about it, Nex was teaching me that.”“When you’re old school, you don’t always understand it,” her husband Walter told The Independent. “But it would be very boring if we were all the same. It’s on the inside that matters the most.”

Remember this kind of thing as you read anti-trans screeds here on DP. This is what their authors want but won't admit they want. They legitimately think these people simply do not deserve to exist. They are happy that sum like Libs of TikTok's Raichik regularly engage in stochastic terrorism, inspiring violence against vulnerable and targeted minorities like trans people.
The school ****ing suspended the kid before they died from their injuries.
They.
Want.
This.
Don't let 'em sugar coat it. Don't let 'em hide behind "but mah religion!". Don't let 'em hide because their own insecurities, and projected worries about someone watching them pee (I mean....how does someone come to worry about someone watching them pee unless they've maybe tried to watch someone else pee themselves).
