Lawrence King's Memory Defiled by Judge

To argue that teaching Lawrence to be himself is to also bring the threat of violence to the child is to say that Lawrence's self is the one that is dangerous. It is an implicit condoning of the hate-filled murder and condemnation of all queer and gender non-conforming people, children included.

But we have heard this same argument before: "If she didn't want to get raped, why did she wear that short skirt?" "What was she doing on the corner at 3am, anyway?" "He should have known better than to walk in that part of town."


I just...fuck. I knew his parents were pushing for this, but I thought the judge would shoot it down--espcially since from what I have heard, they probably weren't moved by grief but by money.

Fuck.

A heterosexual transgender or transsexual woman is not a gay man. Just sayin'
