		<description>For another example showing that violence against trans people (fortuntely, only threatened violence in my friend Sarah&#039;s case) is still alive and well, read here:  http://www.pamshouseblend.com/diary/10382/national-car-rental-employee-to-trans-woman-customer-screwedup-man-faggot.  

I too will be watching the trial of Angie&#039;s murderer and, even though I myself am a criminal defense attorney, hoping that her attorneys&#039; attempt to blame Angie&#039;s murder on her and absolve Andrade completely will fail, as it should, both morally and legally.</description>

		<description>Voz, I read your comment and was horrified that I left that tag off.  I have a distinct memory of adding it, actually, and don&#039;t know if my finger slipped or what . . . but when I saw you said &quot;these cases,&quot; I immediately checked, with additional horror, to see if it was on my previous Angie Zapata post.

I was absolutely relieved that it was.  It was there.  As it should have been.  As I intended it to be.

I have properly added it to this post now, but I swear to you that it was already on the previous post.  And though I have not checked, I am confident that it is on my previous posts about violence against trans women.

I understand that you are upset and the choice is still up to you.  I&#039;m sincerely sorry for the distress I have caused you.  But I do swear to you that it was an accident.</description>

		<description>I noticed that u do not file these cases under violence against woman and girls, nor do you have a distinct trans category in ur tag cloud.

perhaps ur site doesn&#039;t allow u to classify us as women, eh? Or was it less of a technical concern, and more of a reflection of how u really see us?

This is transmisogynistic. Separating out trans women from the factory issue version, and enforcing that separation is a big part of what got Angie killed. 

At this point, Cara, I have little hope for you. Despite r conversations, despite all the time u have been tooting ur horn as an ally, u still run a site that does not recognize trans women as in fact being women.

nice knowin ya...ya me voy.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The murders of so many should have been tried this way before.  It’s a disgrace that they were not.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Even more disgraceful, we&#039;re not even past the point where such murders are treated as self-defense - as if transpeople were aggressing against their killers simply by existing.</description>
