The &#039;trans&#039; concentration camp thing was one of the lies the left wing liberals used to get these people riled up enough to start killing their MAGA boogeyman. Even democrat congress members tried to fan that into a &#039;shooting&#039; &#039;civil war&#039;.

Its a lie. No one is coming to round them up and put them in camps.

These gullible people believing that lie and regurgitating it like its gospel .... it serves to illustrate the point I made above with &quot;their thought processes are mostly ‘unstable self-feeding emotion and self-generated confirmation bias’ based and not firmly grounded in logic or fact or reality orientated all the time.&quot;]]></description>

I&#039;ve researched this before. The propagandists often conflate &quot;tranz women&quot; prostitutes with &quot;tranz&quot; or &quot;LGBTQ&quot; people in general. Being a &quot;tranz woman&quot; prostitute is risky business. They&#039;re usually involved in other risky behaviors as well such as illicit d-r-u-g use. 

The propagandists do the same thing with &quot;migrants&quot; (euphemism for illegal immigrant/alien). They conflate illegals with legal immigrants in order to paint a rosy picture for illegals.

There you go. I have seen this repeated ad nauseam since the election. (We&#039;ve even seen it posted on referenced articles here at SNW.) I wonder if this thought was seeded by Democrat or Intel operatives. 

My lifelong Democrat father just said that he&#039;s more of an independent now. I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s due to tranz fatigue. Please keep up the insanity; everyone is sick of it.]]></description>

&quot;Firstly, you cannot credibly claim that all Trans people mistake speech for violence…&quot;

First, I did not say they mistook speech for violence. I said &quot;They think them ‘feeling insulted’ is the same as ‘violence perpetrated’ against them ...&quot; 

&quot;2ndly, some speech inciting imminent violence can well be part and parcel of violent acts…&quot;

I never said anything like that, that was not the subject. The subject context was ‘feeling insulted’ not &quot;speech inciting imminent violence&quot;.

&quot;3rdly, people from every conceivable group, including blue Venutians, are claiming that speech is violence, so why single out transexuals???&quot;

The subject was &#039;trans&#039; not &quot;every conceivable group, including blue Venutians&quot;. But when we get around to &quot;every conceivable group, including blue Venutians&quot; I might comment on those too.

Miner49er, Stop using your ‘unstable self-feeding emotion and self-generated confirmation bias’ and learn what context means.]]></description>

I&#039;ve given the citations before when I posted it previously. This is the shorter version as there is a lot more. Its an aggregate of data from FBI, NCVS, NIH, databases, databases from various states, NCMEC, RAINN, Human Rights Campaign, and each source only gives a little slice of the overall picture in their own context. I just aggregated it all together to show the overall picture.

My wife is a free lance journalist and professional researcher. She has various contracts, some with federal and state governments for various contracts, its gets her access to this stuff the public doesn&#039;t see in the media.

You&#039;re letting bias get the best of you, or is it the worst of you?
Finally, the AI censor here advising that one&#039;s post came too quickly after a previous post, is nonsensical, and tells me that shooting news weekly is not a sensible group]]></description>

That&#039;s &quot;Almost&quot; a fine Report.
    But you, yourself turned it into garbage.
As I read through your comment I realized that you gave us no citation of any source, from which your &quot;claimed facts&quot; came.
       Not only must people cite sources, they must cite credible and authoritative sources.
      If you don&#039;t do this, your claims must be judged BS, as if you had what you considered the facts, why wouldn&#039;t cite the siurce.
       Come back with the sources for your claims, and learn to do so.
       Presumably you are not one of those Harvard Graduates spewing utter tripe, so try harder to show that.]]></description>

&quot;If I used a firearm to “enforce my dignity” I’d be thrown in prison. They’re for protecting yourself from severe bodily harm or death, not from feeling insulted.&quot;

I just started to post something along those lines.

It points out one of the many differences in the trans mindset. They think them &#039;feeling insulted&#039; is the same as &#039;violence perpetrated&#039; against them and it isn&#039;t. This is one of the many reasons you should just steer clear of  trans people, their thought processes are mostly &#039;unstable self-feeding emotion and self-generated confirmation bias&#039; based and not firmly grounded in logic or fact or reality orientated all the time.]]></description>
