368 trans people killed this year

People suck. We are only here on this planet to live our selfish lives, despite all that we pretend. Humans aren’t kind, they aren’t compassionate, they aren’t loving, they aren’t anything good. Period. Everything in this article shows how despicable and horrible and downright inhumane people are. Every damn day.

Trans people have been beheaded, gunned down and stoned to death, according to a new report.

It highlights the 368 trans, non-binary and gender-variant people, at least, who were murdered in the 12 months from 1 October 2017 to 30 September 2018.

28 of the trans murder victims were reported to be teenagers, with some as young as 16.

There were five beheadings. Nine people were stoned to death. The majority of the people killed were trans women of color, often gunned down or beaten to death.

The Transgender Murder Monitoring Project has released this update in time for Transgender Day of Remembrance tomorrow (20 November).
