      I’m a trans person from the UK

      I never said you were from the US, I said you made a US-brained comment. Much of our politics, culture, and political discourse is influenced by the US, they’re undeniably an influential country.

      my experience…

      Then your experience is very, very different to mine.

      I think you are gravely mistaken if you think you’d be safer with no police. There is no shortage of people that want to attack LGBT people. If you think they’d leave you alone, think again. Knowing that there’s no police to assist would only embolden them.

      Do you think the police that voluntarily attended Pride/put Pride decals on their vehicles and uniforms are out to get you? Do you think that the TERF who raised this case is actually a hero fighting the good fight?

        There are more male murder victims than females. The above does not distinguish between trans/non-trans. Sadly, around 30% are with no suspect charged.A
