Pretty When You Cry

Sacramento Radio Hosts Encourage Violence Against Transgender Children

 

I almost threw up when I read this.

 

I just... I think of the posts I made yesterday and I just want to laugh. Just laugh incredibly bitterly.

Because transgendered adults don't get killed often enough by this kind of speech, and hatred, and bigotry: now you've got to get the kids involved, too.

I haven't listened to it, obviously, but reading that article, that is definitely bordering on hate speech, and that's speaking very generously. Like, I think some of that shit is actionable.

I hope those people never become fathers, seriously. They would turn their back on their kids the moment they did something these two fuckers don't like, and that's fundamentally wrong on every level. Forget the Darwin Awards thing about intelligence, I don't think people should be allowed to be parents if they don't understand that you can't make your kids into whatever you want them to be. It's not fair on the parent and it's not fair on the child.

Ugh. This makes me sick.

Yeah, apparently 'kill 'em off young' is the current motto. It's sickening.

I certainly agree that these people should never, ever, ever breed. Ever.
