I know. That's why I was trying to nip it in the bud.

From what I understand of the incident, I believe the racial dynamic is secondary to the gender/sexual orientation dynamic but is nevertheless present.

I agree if it were reversed race would probably be the primary issue raised with gender/sexual orientation being secondary.

I think that was the cause also, which is still a hate crime, just against the TV aspect not the white aspect. I'm surpised there's been no further releases about this incident detailing the actual motives. It also could have had nothing to do with her being TV or white, the girls may have just been hot heads looking to beat someone up that day.

Did the attackers know the victim was a transgender? Can you confirm that with evidence, please.

Apparently she was a regular visitor of the McDonalds.
The supervisor told the attacker that she was transgender.

According a couple of local news story she/he came on to one of the suspect boyfriends.


This article says it was over a bathroom...So maybe they found out lol.

In world history class I learned that African societies reached the bronze age before other parts of the world. This was back before the liberal takeover of the education system was completed so it's probably true and not just political correctness. Some theorize that the reason African societies fell backward was due to the constant infighting between tribes. That seems strange to me though because conflict usually suprs advances, not retrogrades. Anyway, I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with McDonalds or this story.

Sadly, I'm not. Delving into motive requires deeper logical thinking and television networks and other news sources have determined that those things are not profitiable and won't hold viewer's/reader's interest.

Whether surgically altered or not, this was a man allowing two teenage girls to beat him up. I don't excuse the girl's behavior AT ALL, however I'm not understanding why he did nothing to protect himself.

In my clubbing days, I used to hang with queens and there were always women who were LIVID when it was discovered that there was a man in the women's restroom. There was no discussion about whether or not surgery took place to alter genitalia...it was "There's a man in the women's bathroom...get out!!". If that didn't happen, an argument would surely ensue.

With the ever growing population of transgender people, there really should be a separate bathroom for private use.

Perhaps no one jumped in to help because this was a man getting beat up vs. a real woman. I know that if I saw two women beating up a guy, I would not step in....In fact, I wouldn't step in for ANY fight. Call the cops? Sure. Interject myself into a situation that I know nothing about? I pass.

And that is exactly why I posted about the "random" links about the multitude of White teachers (sexual predators) who are continually caught having sex with students.

Far too many White people downplay the "wrongdoings" of their own yet immediately state "....but Blacks have a higher prevalence of..." or "...but that's nothing compared to Blacks..." no matter what the issue. And they make assumptions about "the stats" with not a hint of proof.

I find it very hypocritcal (although its not very surprising) that White people never feel the need to take (racial) responsibility for the ills of what others of their race have commited against others yet ALL Black people are supposed to apologize when some unknown Black person does something on the other side of the country.

The whole purpose of this thread is to demonize African Americans...yet if a thread was created about the massive amounts of White teachers who molester their students the White posters on C-D would make every attempt to throw enough anti-Black racist hsit to the wall to deflect from the "sickness" of sexual perversion that exists in their community

Who says that we don't? Yeah, there are some serious low points in our history. With that being said, we ALL as AMERICANS need to learn from it, and move on! Furthermore in reference to the stereotype of whites being more known to molest children; I look at it this way, anyone who would molest a child whether they are white, black, hispanic, blue, green or from the planet Jupiter... are the lowest of the low and deserve to be treated as such! That goes for these two nutjobs that beat this person into a seizure! White, black, I don't give a s***! They deserve what is coming to them! I play no favorites based on race when it comes to a violent crime being commited!

Or eliminate gender-seperated bathrooms entirely. As long as the individual stalls have that rubber flap between the door and the frame to keep prying eyes out I see no reason to have seperate gender restrooms (and eliminate or enclose urinals).

Why are so many White teachers having sexual relations with their students? And why isn't the issue being addressed by the White leadership? Our children are targets of these sexual predators and White leaders are ignoring the issue.
