    And they will go somewhere else and continue to oppress and abuse while holding a gun and wearing a badge.

    The posted article doesn’t mention how he was treated differently for being transgender, which is only reported to be during and after questioning about the incident. This CNN article explains. TLDR, he was harassed by an officer during questioning then booked as a female and kept in female quarters.

    I guess punching his face in wasn’t enough. Makes my blood boil.
