This HAS to be seen.

We cannot cross our arms, and look elsewhere.

Those people are evil. EVIL. Reminds me of the recent thread about knowing psychopaths. These people are all psychopaths.

Laughing and filming her while she was having a seizure, from all the kicks and punches to her head. Seeing that elder woman nearly throwing herself on top of her, to try and protect her. She almost got beaten, too. The manager doing nothing! Half-heartedly telling the women to stop their attacks. Looking at the woman while she was having a seizure, and just walking away.

Watch the video. Do not turn your back on her, like these... non-people did.
No, we cannot remain idle. The video was really difficult to watch, really difficult. It is everywhere- and it does have to stop. For transpeople and everyone else that society can't or won't understand.

Just last week another transwoman was attacked in SF. Freakin' SF!! As a butch, I won't ride rapid transit here in the East Bay alone at night.

Assaults againt transwomen and men and all gender variant people has to be addressed in solidarity among the entire LGBTIQ community- ALL organizations representing us need to join forces and be LOUD with outrage and clear about not taking this!

We live in a society in which this goes on as well as things like the gang rape of a 16 year old girl at her HS prom here in CA as up to 30 other teens watched and did NOTHING!!!
