This video is really shocking. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6317165/Transgender-girl-charged-brutal-high-school-attack-caught-camera-says-bullied.html

Obviously it goes without saying that bullying is wrong, and should have been dealt with by the school. But this person kicking and stomping on people who are lying on the ground, resulting in their hospitalisation? That goes far beyond a response to bullying.

A commenter on GC Reddit whose daughter attends the school in question reports that the girl who was beaten has either a broken jaw or fractured skull.

Another case where the 'transgender' status means hee-haw to what is quite simply bullying and assault.

Take some screenshots before they disappear!

I predict that the girl said something like "Women don't have penises". And then was attacked by a brave and stunning transwoman who has never had any kind of puberty blockers or cross sex hormones.

Perry’s Facebook account is still under birth name and male pronouns?

As someone said on the DM comments, I hope this person isn’t permitted to participate in girls sports - there is a photo of Perry in gym shorts on their Facebook timeline and there is no way any teenage girl has comparative strength - not even a teen girl who is a competitive body builder.

That was beyond self defense, so far beyond self defense that it has disappeared over the horizon.

There's just not very many biological females who would resort to that or be capable of that under the pressure of bullying

Holy crap, that video is terrible. It will be interesting to see how the trial and (if found guilty - hard to see how they couldn't be with that video evidence) sentencing goes. Will the trans teflon coating win, or will they go down for a long stretch?

(I'd also be fascinated to know what form the "bullying" took - was it genuine bullying or was it in fact a simple assertion that no, I as a young woman do not feel comfortable sharing changing rooms with this male-bodied individual?)
