Heartbreaking account of a hate crime in Trump's America.
Ally Steinfeld, 17, became the 21st transgender person to be killed in the US this year.
Vrba has reportedly told police that he repeatedly stabbed Ally, gouging out her eyes and genitals.
Calderas and Schauer then went to a Walmart to buy items for burning Allys body, he said.
They then helped him to wrap Allys body, take it outside and set it on fire.

(420 posts)This should be on every news channel. The Matthew Shepard story was all over the news and specials. Showing how far this country has fallen in terms of people actually caring for other human beings, this current story seems to be barely a blip on the radar of mainstream news.

(1,773 posts)He has cultivated such an environment of intolerance and hate that no minority is safe anywhere. He needs to understand that he will be held accountable by the people each time a monstrous act of hate like this is committed in HIS America.
Why the hell is it taking so long to impeach this clown?

(89,248 posts)i hate how the national media gives attention to right wing lies about transgender women being a threat if they could use certain bathrooms.
yet the facts show it is transgender women who are the ones being attacked and killed.
