The Advocate/BY Dawn Ennis August 24 2015 2:47 PM ET 

"Police in Kansas City, Mo., tell The Advocate that a 32-year-old trans woman known as Jasmine Collins was murdered earlier this summer, almost two months before the most recent killing of a trans woman — also in Kansas City. Her death brings to 18 the total number of transgender women killed in the U.S. in 2015."

A totally senseless crime over a pair of shoes.

What's this world coming to?

Stay safe, all of you.  And everywhere you go, identify potential exits and potential weapons.  Our world isn't safe.  If you are attacked, run; and if you can't run, fight back.  Go for the eyes, throat, solar plexus or groin if possible.
