not all trans people want to change their appearance to fit the stereotypical “”“look”“” that society deems is appropriate !! if somebody says they’re male, female, nonbinary, genderfluid, agender, whatever it is, that’s what they are. and you have no right to dispute that just because of how they decide to present themselves.
Barstow, CA
January 26, 2015
Officials with the city of Barstow, California insisted this week that officers had acted properly when they used force to arrest a pregnant woman who refused to show them her identification, even though the charges were later dismissed.
In police body camera video obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation of Southern California (ACLU SoCal), an officer is responding to an apparent traffic dispute between Charlena Michelle Cooks, who is 8 months pregnant and black, and an unidentified white woman.
The officer first talks to the white woman, who accuses Cooks of acting “all crazy.”
“I don’t see a crime that has been committed,” the officer admits after examining the woman’s car. After promising the woman a police report, the officer heads over to talk to Cooks.
Cooks explains that the argument occurred because the woman disagreed with the way she was driving in the parking lot. Cooks also said that the woman frightened her daughter, who was in second grade.
At that point the officer asks for Cooks’ name, but she insists that she does not have to tell him.
“I actually do have the right to ask you for your name,” the officer replies.
“Let me make sure,” Cooks says as she makes a phone call to someone.
The officer says he will give Cooks two minutes to verify his right to ask for her identification. But less than 20 seconds later, the officer and a colleague are performing a painful wristlock takedown on Cooks. The pregnant woman screams as she is forced belly first into the ground.
“Why are you resisting?” the officer demands.
“Please! I’m pregnant!” Cooks exclaims. “Please, stop this!”
ACLU SoCal staff attorney Adrienna Wong pointed out that Cooks had a right to refuse to show her ID.
ACLU SoCal staff attorney Jessica Price observed that Cooks, who is black, was handled very differently than the white woman.
Cooks gave birth to a daughter earlier this year, but the violent January arrest still haunts her.
“She was a full-term baby born on March 30,” she said. “We don’t exactly know if anything really happened to her during the incident so I’m just watching her development closely.”
This shit was so wrong on every level.
omg
Allism is a terrible disease that needs to be cured. I should know, I know a ton of allistic people and am quite the martyr for dealing with them.

We don’t. We’d just really like it if y’all would stop killing us is the thing.
It’s men who are killing trans people, not “cis” women.
You can’t hope to achieve liberation without first naming your oppressor correctly. Stop misleading people.
LMAO, okay, suddenly cis women never kill trans people???
Suddenly, magically, TERFs don’t exist! Suddenly, no trans woman has even been assaulted for using the women’s bathroom!! Suddenly, no trans woman’s life has been endangered by TERF idealogy that she’s just a man trying to sneak into women’s spaces!!
Fucking cut the shit, cis women. Admit that you are just as dangerous and deadly to trans people. There is no excusing yourself from transphobia.
It is cis people. ALL cis people.No, it isn’t ALL cis people, obviously. Not all cis people objectify and bully, despite tumblr belief
youre 16 and still need to learn some stuff but yes. all cis people perpetuate transphobia. not all of them might bully and objectify, but all of them are inherently cissexist and transmisogynystic, because they are born in a society that makes them that way from their first days. all cis people are dangerous to trans people bc all of them have internalized bigotry which is very hard to get rid of. hell trans people have internalized transphobia and cissexism a lot of the time. even if you dont like. beat up and actually kill trans people, your actions and words can affect us indirectly and result in our harm and death.
i know cis people rly want to distance themselves from transphobia and swear they arent shitty but they are and the only way to fix that is to recognize it and work on it. this isnt about tumblr btw this is a thing trans people irl know too, we are just much more vocal on the internet

cis radfem doesnt want to acknowledge that cis women have actually assaulted and murdered trans people. like idk abt you but plenty of cis women beat and starve their trans children to death or kick them out or caused them to commit suicide because of constant abuse. are you fucking foreal lmao all cis people are a threat to trans people especially trans women.
You have absolutely no evidence to back up any of that. All of what you said is total conjecture.
However I can tell you that trans women commit crimes at the same rates as all males.
“regarding any crime, male-to-females had a significantly increased risk for crime compared to female controls (aHR 6.6; 95% CI 4.1–10.8) but not compared to males (aHR 0.8; 95% CI 0.5–1.2). This indicates that they retained a male pattern regarding criminality. The same was true regarding violent crime.”

oh yeah i mean who would imagine a parent abusing their child bc theyre trans like yes that is completely unimaginable without sources oh man you rly truly got me there
wow its as if a lot of the shitty oppressive medical standards trans people face, especially trans women, are pushed on with the help of cis radfems. Cathy Brennan is a highly prominent radfem who’s basically made it her life goal to out and harass trans women and girls and endager their lives so like.
also what the hell does this have to do with the conversation? we’re talking abt how cis ppl are killing trans folk not abt the crime rates of trans women or do you just wanna antagonize them for kicks??? also the justice system is biased as hell lmao
oh golly you called trans women males goodbye i dont rly have anything more to say to you
