Jennifer Laude was killed brutally and mercilessly. What happened to her is sick and she deserves justice. But what do people say? People say this:
People are actually siding with a murder who DROWNED A WOMAN HELPLESSLY IN A TOILET BOWL. They are justifying murder with the transphobic set of my mind that “she deserved what was coming because she wasn’t upfront about her original gender”
I hope, I so fucking hope, that the Philippine government takes this case seriously and doesnt make a military alliance with America more relevant than the this blatant act of transphobia
