Bad News

Posted by – September 25, 2008

The body of a transgendered person has been found in the American River in Sacramento, CA. No word yet on how the person died, but we’re bracing to hear the bad news. It’s never a good day when you realize that you’re hoping it’s because of suicide instead of a hate crime/murder.

22 years old, and Latina – which tells me it was a hate crime that put her in that river. Vaya con dios, whoever you are.

    Murder was my first thought too, sadly…I light a candle on her virtual descanso….

    Out of the three stories I pulled up she kept being referred to as “person” and in one of them as a “transgendered man”.

    Makes me sick.

    I’m so unbelievably glad I moved away from that area… Too many rednecks.
