Charlie Kirk shot at (shot?) in Utah

I know for sure that I do none of your “somebody” things, and don’t know anyone who does.

Um... you insinuated that I hate women simply because I want to uphold the exact same standards for abortion that existed under RvW.

Except your standards would sometimes kill women. Even ones that weren't at 6 months yet. We've already seen the sort of deaths your position would lead to: the doctors won't act unless they are certain of the situation and are certain they can prove they acted properly. Medical judgment goes out the window.

"That's just hyperbole!"

I'll be much surprised if you can produce said evidence running in the opposite direction re "perversion", since "perversion" is an entirely subjective pejorative. Re mass shootings, do you mean something like Elixir's Perplexity emission, "transgender people are much more likely to be victims of violence than perpetrators"? That's true of pretty much any demographic, since one perpetrator typically has many victims.

No--mass shootings have many victims, but a lot of the violence is one on one or many on one.

One-on-one doesn't change anything -- when a perpetrator beats somebody up, it usually isn't the first time he beat anyone up and it probably won't be the last time.

Many-on-one could in principle change the numbers, true; but it would take an awful lot of gang-ups to outweigh the effect of the same criminals reoffending over and over.

Trans being far more likely to be the victim than the perpetrator is true for society in general.

Yes, that's not in dispute. Can you name any demographic it isn't true for? Left-handed AB-negative people are far more likely to be the victim than the perpetrator.

Let's suppose you're correct for the sake of argument. So what? Why do you think that has any bearing on the point in dispute? Emily and Elixir aren't arguing over whether Roe v Wade is good policy. They're arguing over whether Elixir infers hatred of women from opposition to abortions. Irrespective of whether Emily is right about abortion, do you in fact think Emily hates women?
