Story made all the more disturbing by the fact that the victim was repeatedly misgendered by family members in the video. The reporter correctly gendered her throughout, though.
Have you read my short story The Eve of Triumph?

That's one neighborhood I wouldn't even go to in broad daylight, but I don't think the neighborhood had as much to do with this senseless killing as her identity did.

Sad.

And that is why I carry a pistol...even at home. Never know when it will be needed, and there's never time to unlock the safe and load before bad things happen.

RIP Deshawnda.

...I think for most of us it is a futile effort to try and put this genie back in the bottle once she has tasted freedom...

It's sad that such things happen in such a world where people seem to be open and accepting. My heart goes out to the people who understood her <3
