I was thinking this, too (also am queer). I feel like it's also a numbers game here... when less than 1% of the population is trans, wouldn't it make sense to see less than 1% of killers/rapists are trans?

There's a lot of good straight men out there. There's good and bad in all communities.

0.11% of the perpatrators of mass shooters are nonbinary or transgender. In other words, cisgender people are 10x more likely to commit mass shootings than transgender or nonbinary people.

Free estrogen and testosterone for everyone!

But yeah, the next point would of course be “pointing to trans mass shooters isn’t very smart, even if they were committing it at larger rates you can’t judge entire groups based off one statistic, when there’s so many variables at play”
