Actually it isn't that surprising. Hate crimes like this happen all over the world. That's why I'm always extra protective of my TS friends. I give them the same advice I would to women. Don't go off with strangers, always stay in populated areas, stay in well lit areas..etc etc etc.
Alot of people just don't understand and sometimes some 'snap'. Marines...not surprisingly.
If they were actually Marines, my earnest hope is that they are prosecuted to the full extent of the law. If they were not Marines, I still hope they are proseuted to the full extent of the law. Such behavior is absolutely NOT ACCEPTABLE.
For the poor young person, may he rest in peace. For those who loved him, my deepest sympathies.
Hon, I know beyond any shadow of a doubt that if this maggot was a Marine, he's not the norm. That just ain't the way Marines work, not the ones I personally know, not 99 and 44/100 percent of them.
I'm so not trying to be rude, I'm just forgetful. Did you say you did send me the thaaaang or you were going to, but haven't yet? I keep waiting for it. :D
