The fact that the cops put her in the men's detainment facility tells you everything you need to know about why they arrested her, the victim of the unprovoked attack. This is a hate crime from the men that attacked her and then from the police that are obviously and intentionally trying to humiliate her.

This is so, so infuriating, she was the only one arrested?! I only hope she can take this police force to court.

Article contains links to contribute to the defence fund.

Meet the new Nazis, same as the old Nazis.

more at risk she is exposed to as a trans woman and abolitionist.

Would someone kindly for me what "abolitionist" means in this context?

Also, FREE EPONA!

Someone who believes police and prisons should be abolished.

Thank you very much.

This article was the catalyst that brought to light my dad's previously quiet transphobia where four years of me being on hormones did not. I hate it.

Fuck Arizona and fuck shitty old men.
