Do you not think it's bizarre to have strangers on the internet decide they know better than Brianna's own loved ones on what is or isn't insulting to her memory?
I've got no time for Rosie Duffield, but she turned up at a drop-in event in Parliament and that's been the limit of her involvement.

The options for trans healthcare are:
- Wait 3 lifetimes
- Pay tens of thousands of pounds
- Find and pay for increasingly hard-to-access DIY
- Never get it at all
Do they expect gratitude? Or just for us to suffer in silence?
We will respond in turn, with nothing but rage.

Brianna died because two IRL classmates at her IRL school that she attended IRL decided, IRL, to murder her for fun. They lured her, IRL, to a park where they IRL stabbed her to death for the pleasure of seeing, in person, how she screamed. Her mother making it about phones and online is disgusting.
Meeting yesterday with Brianna Ghey's mother Esther - and pupils at Brianna's former school - was a powerful reminder of why controls on social media and smartphone use in schools is so important for children, teachers and parents. (1/2)

We will not prosecute our way out of transphobia. The police will not take transphobes away to a cold cell where they can not bother us.

Curtain Twitching trans people are drawing attention away from things that actually make us safe and towards tormenting a man who is, admittedly, a miserable evil prick, but tormenting him does us no good and does not make us safe.

So basically in the UK, any time someone regrets having sex with a trans woman, they can go cry to the police that she "lied" about being a woman and the police and jury will believe them every time.
Then the woman will be sentenced to be raped by men in men's prison.

This is a vastly upsetting case, that uses CPS guidelines that effectively mean if Trans+ people don't come out before sexual contact, they can now be found guilty of sexual assault - which is what has happened here
