  You’re saying that framing trans people as evil sociopaths is based…?

    I think the intent was ‘based girl standing up for herself to the point of killing a dude’, but I could be wrong.

      I’m not sure what the specifics of the attack are but he probably didn’t need to be killed either?

        The murderer cut everyone in line. Mailman calls her a slur for abundle of twigs. The murderer spits on the mailman. The mailman strikes back at the murderer who is substantially bigger than him, escalating the fight. Bystanders try to break it up unsuccessfully. The murderer grabs a knife and stabs the guy repeatedly. He dies. In the interviews with police the murderer shows no remorse and is proud of stabbing someone to death.
