But this woman won't be dead. She will have to live with the callous decision by the court that, for her crimes, she deserves whatever comes, including rape. Okay fellow trans person, envison it's 2025 and Trump is back in power and you got caught with an eighth at a BLM rally, and the courts full of sycophantic Republican judges are all signaling how extraordinarily harsh they are on crime. The shoe is now on the other foot and and a kangaroo court puts in jail for 'assaulting an officer' when you were using your fists to rub tear gas from your eyes while the pigs beat your arms with their sticks.

If torture of some is alright, torture of all is alright. That simply is the reality of approving of torture as an acceptable means. I'm sorry I keep debate-broing but this mentality is really dark my friend.
