So while race may have been a contributing factor, the woman's perceived gender status was at the root of the attack. That is now beyond question.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600684740584460891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-77208047505543199962011-04-26T22:25:12.126-07:002011-04-26T22:25:12.126-07:00@Melissa.

I think that a closer, UNBIASED examination of the fact will the the attack was initiated by a bully with a criminal history of identical UNPROVOKED attacks. You can visit my blog for LINKS to the actual police report and EARLY UNEDITED versions of actual witness accounts.<br /><br />From what I can gather, Crissey transitioned in place and despite having undergone GRS, her HISTORY was known to some. I DO agree that her "op-status" is not the issue. However, despite the bigoted statements of the fool that shot the video, it is FAR from clear or evident that this girls status is what provoked the attack.<br /><br />Based on Teonna Brown's criminal history of unprovoked attacks on attractive white women, I tend to believe Chrissey's assessment that her attackers "were just spoiling for a fight". <br /><br />I am not trying to discount the obviously transphobic elements in the comments attributed to the dirtbag that shot the video.<br /><br />However, just like in Nikki Arragus's case, I see the transgenderists' rush to exploit this woman's pain and misfortune for their own selfish agenda driven purposes, to be PREDATORY at best.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696670919817140802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-66804227731171305812011-04-26T14:01:26.149-07:002011-04-26T14:01:26.149-07:00Donna We agree that violence shouldn't happen,...Donna We agree that violence shouldn't happen, but it does and will continue to happen as it's a symptom of our society the rest we'll just have to disagree on....lOLsweetbrandigirl2004https://www.blogger.com/profile/02677775753686708537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-60756558010830445922011-04-26T12:59:18.312-07:002011-04-26T12:59:18.312-07:00I agree- it's a question of the violence shoul...I agree- it's a question of the violence shouldn't have happened. <br /><br />But it did.<br /><br />So what are we prepared to do about it?

Whether or not this victim falls into your own definition of trans anything the fact of the matter is that her perceived trans history is at the root of this brutal violence. The question at hand isn't to argue about your definitions or mine, or whether she's pre-op/post-op/non-op, or even whether she was legally entitled to be in that bathroom based on legal status and/or state law. The fundamental issue is that under no circumstances can the violence that ensued be condoned or justified. I hope we can at least agree on that much.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10695864068826692539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-46384606502438979122011-04-26T10:40:09.349-07:002011-04-26T10:40:09.349-07:00Well I guess to begin with we should clear up that...Well I guess to begin with we should clear up that Transgender people aren't GID...Transsexuals are..yes ! its that same old argument. For all of the studies she's points out were Involving Transsexuals not transgender. As for whether transsexuals are really women I'd say yes and I agree that they were misgendered at birth...... Science has shown they have female brain genders, But I wouldn't agree that all those who fly the transgender flag are misgendered or are truly women. since they self diagnosis, self medicate, and self mutilate their bodies with silicone and most of them don't ever have a diagnosis from a trained gender therapist theres no telling if they are truly TS or not some I suspect some may be but the vast majority of them aren't they're just living out a fantasy<br /><br />As for this women in the Mcdonalds beating she's not Transgender she a post-op and doesn't claim to be Trans anything in any of her Interviews nor does her family see her as trans her brother calls her his sister. Based on the fact she's only 22 I'd suspect she was diagnosis as TS at a young age and has since had surgery and moved on with her life. She's just a women and nothing more not a transwomen. Once one goes through the transition process and has surgery to correct the birth defect and blends back into society they aren't trans anything any longer. Transition is a process with a destination not a stopping point one doesn't transition into trans. It has a beginning a middle and an end once the process is done the person is suppose to be to the point were they can blend back into society only in the opposite gender. <br /><br />But with the invent of the Internet it opened a whole new world to those out there who'd always dreamed of being the opposite sex, but knew they'd never make it passed the SOC gate keepers they began self diagnosing and taking Internet hormones flying to Thailand and other places for surgeries cutting out the therapist all together. Most never being truly prepared or meant to transition in the first place got stuck somewhere in the middle out of money and without a official diagnosis of Ts they weren't able to get surgery to change official documents like birth certificates. Making it almost impossible for them to find work. This women wouldn't have mis labeled if it weren't for the horn blowing from EQ Maryland but now he's branded with the scarlet letter “ Transgender.” Something I'm sure she's not grateful for. Having had surgery and changed all her documentation she's legally a female and thus entitled to all the rights and privileges that come with being a women in society. PA Laws would do her NO Good as she already has every legal right to be in the womens restroom. EQ Maryland is just trying to co-op her situation for its own political gain and so they can use it to gain rights for non-ops. Trying to make political points off this womens pain is totally discussing and sad. what most who fly that Transgender flag forget is their is a segment of the population made up of TS women of history who after transition melt back into society not wanting to be under their umbrella. Their Identities aren't found in being Trans like so many in the Transgender community their Identities are their own.sweetbrandigirl2004https://www.blogger.com/profile/02677775753686708537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-58880913756473476442011-04-26T07:44:59.759-07:002011-04-26T07:44:59.759-07:00I was busy yesterday morning so I caught glimpses ...I was busy yesterday morning so I caught glimpses of the video on ABC. Later, I watched it on YouTube and I got a knot on my stomach. I felt impotence, anger, too difficult to describe as new thoughts and emotions run through my mind watching the sickening scenario.<br /><br />If this video did not make it clear that we need protection from society instead of the other way around (as some right-wing retrogrades claim), I do not know what might make that clear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-3516524699441555672011-04-26T06:21:19.120-07:002011-04-26T06:21:19.120-07:00@ Anne
Following your normal pattern of believing...@ Anne<br /><br />Following your normal pattern of believing only the evidence that supports your opinion and dismissing the evidence that refutes it, you continue to deny that the victim's transgender status had anything to do with this hate crime, and that it was purely racially motivated, when the evidence clearly states otherwise. The victim herself, as well as other witnesses, is on the record as saying, people were saying, "That's a dude..." when she entered the women's restroom. The guy who filmed the incident and who was subsequently fired for it, said on his own Facebook page, that it was because she was a dude dressed as a woman, using the women's restroom.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600684740584460891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-68660425405573530832011-04-26T03:40:29.970-07:002011-04-26T03:40:29.970-07:00@Anne: I think what I hear you saying is that thi...@Anne: I think what I hear you saying is that this particular incident in Baltimore had nothing to do with trans or bathrooms. Proof would indicate otherwise.<br /><br />As for the other incidents I mention, of course they had nothing to do with trans or bathrooms. I didn't imply that. However, they were both brutal shocking attacks caught on tape made even more disturbing because bystanders watched it unfold.<br /><br />Whether it's racism, religious based bigotry, homo or trans phobia, or any kind of deeply rooted bias that is allowed to fester to the point of violence the end results are similar.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10695864068826692539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667585281200430600.post-71984861010472884092011-04-26T00:38:36.685-07:002011-04-26T00:38:36.685-07:00Donna.
