To be sure, any justice system that requires lawyers is already made of "powerful, blood-sucking leeches who shit on vulnerable people."

All of this is sad, the crap we face for being trans is horendous. I started transition 8 years ago, at the time due to hate crimes/suicide combined the expected life span of a trans individual was 23. It's a little higher now, something like 30 iirc (which coincidentally is how old I am). It's just terrible.
Over on reddit I frequent /r/news (I'm u/usagimimi) and the denial that abounds from the community after every single murder of a trans person is scary. Massive doubt that it had anything to do with their status as trans or that they deserved it and such...

"He grew up in typical hood family abuse, so it's understandable that he would kill a trans woman that grew up in typical hood family abuse", says the dude's lawyer.
