Turning to murder in this situation is clearly not warranted but I think it's pretty clear that Tyler had emotional issues exacerbated by him being who he was born to be and his family not accepting that kind of lifestyle.

These mental health struggles can be exacerbated when personal identity conflicts with family or community values, especially in highly conservative or religious contexts.

I hope this come up in the current National dialogue.
