“Within hours of the shooting, Tara Armstrong, the MLA for Kelowna-Lake Country-Coldstream, wrote on social media that the killings were part of a growing ‘epidemic of transgender violence’ in Western countries.”

Trust the OneBC former Conservative Party member to get right to the crux of a problem they’ve helped to foment.

Transgender people just want to live their lives being comfortable in the gender they see themselves as and that most people are happy to accept.

But the social conservative limited empathy neanderthals can’t get their heads around the fact that it’s their vilification, harassment and rights depriving actions that are the most likely causes of any ‘epidemic of transgender violence’ that they so abhor.

Trans rights are human rights. Live and let live. Don’t expect everyone to exist in a social conservative bubble that limits their existence.
