Alarmed by the recent murder of a transgender woman, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) has redeclared what he calls "a trans femicide state of emergency. Too many transgender Chicagoans don't feel safe in spaces where they should feel safe and welcome. This declaration renews a state of emergency first declared in 2024. It is shameful that I have to reiterate this, but the killing must stop."
Critics question the Mayor's focus on such a small fraction of the city's homicides. In the last decade 14 transgenders have been murdered. During this same period more than 5,000 non-transgenders have been murdered. Every weekend for years dozens have been shot and multiple victims have died. Sane Chicagoans wonder if the Mayor has misplaced priorities.
Johnson explained "there are so few transgenders that they effectively are an 'endangered species.' Since their sex organs have been surgically removed they cannot reproduce themselves. For this reason I feel they deserve our special attention and protection. The kind of folks who are getting shot every week are from a much larger cohort of ordinary people. Many of them have already reproduced offspring who will survive and their legacy will live on. Some of them are gun-totting gangsters who kill each other. I can't justify exerting a heroic effort to save members of this surplus population. It would take too much time and resources. Working to save the much smaller cohort of transgenders seems more feasible and worthwhile."

The link doesn’t go to the correct story.
Still, there’s plenty of BS from His Honor the Mayor that it can be addressed:
Here’s a story on the murder and I really recommend it. The victim was a whore. His boyfriend Googled for info on what happens when you bludgeon a persons with a hammer while they’re sleeping. The boyfriend stole money and a car.
The article is just too precious. It starts with a warning for the delicate read that it contains a description of violence. It expresses regret that the “trans woman” was “misgendered” in early reports, presumably because first responders noted that he had a dick.
So we have a mentally ill homosexual, and a violent boyfriend who is turned on by the delusion. Researches the method of murder, then carries it out. How this adds up to a crisis I’m a bit at a loss

I may want “trans” to be safe—but NOT welcome!!
How many fake women has the Mayor killed?
