Brianna’s brutal death confirms many ppl's worst fears about a culture war whipping up hostility against trans people.
That this killing was complex does not render her trans identity irrelevant ... yet to make it the whole is to miss something else about this brutal killing of a child by children, one of whom rejected a proposed date for murder because it was a “school night”.
