Two days ago I wrote a post about the decision to keep the multi-day event known as the Trans Day of Vengeance in place, despite the mass murder tragedy in Nashville on Monday. That decision has changed and the demonstration scheduled to take place in front of the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. on Saturday has been canceled. The reason is said to be a ‘credible threat to life and safety’.
The event was originally called the Trans Day of Visibility rally. However, the name change happened after the mass murder by a trans shooter in Nashville on Monday. Then the justification for the name change began. Vengeance, to most people, implies the potential for violence. It’s not a peaceful, passive word. No, no, the activists said. Vengeance means fighting back with vehemence. The demonstration is to bring a spotlight on the alleged ‘genocide’ of trans people. Ironically, it was a trans shooter in Nashville that killed five innocent people – 3 nine-year-old children and two adults.
Since Monday, the media and the Democrats have been busy turning the transgender shooter into a victim instead of the real victims of the day, the school children and the school staff. The White House has been particularly tone-deaf on the school shooting. Joe Biden has not been to Nashville to comfort grieving families and school personnel. He made some weird small talk about his love of chocolate chip ice cream instead of addressing the mass shooting to a crowd of guests at the White House on Monday. He briefly mentioned it later as he blamed Congress (code for Republicans) for not passing some legislation he alleges he sent to them when he came into office. I’ll just note here that if the shooting had been of a transgender person at the hands of a Christian on Monday, I’ll guarantee Biden would have cleared his already light schedule and flown to Nashville the next day or so. He and Jill Biden would have a photo op and he would make a speech about gun control. We’ve seen it before. But this time, the inconvenient truth is that the horrible violence was committed by a member of the transgender community so it’s ignored. It must be the Christian school’s fault and those in that community’s.

Here is what Biden’s social media team posted today on his Twitter account. (There is no way that I believe that Biden posts his tweets.)
On Transgender Day of Visibility, we want you to know that we see you just as you are:
Made in the image of God and deserving of dignity, respect, and support.
We’ll never stop working to create a world where you won’t have to be brave just to be yourself. pic.twitter.com/g5TTZbv1UW

They don’t even have the cojones to use the revised name of the demonstration that has now been canceled. Maybe it was the White House press secretary that did it. She has been busy claiming the trans community is under attack since Monday. And blaming Republicans for gun violence.

Saturday’s demonstration has been canceled due to threats of violence. The White House failed to lower the temperature. The divisive nature of the Biden administration is increasingly dangerous.
The rally was due to be held on Saturday in Washington D.C., but organizers of the Trans Radical Activist Network (TRAN) said Thursday that threats on social media have led them to decide to cancel the event.
The demonstration would have been held outside the Supreme Court but ‘astronomical amounts of hate from the world’ forced them to cancel, TRAN said.
In a statement canceling the event, TRAN announced: ‘The safety of our trans community is first priority. This threat is the direct result of the flood of raw hatred directed toward the trans community after the Tennessee shooting.
‘Individuals who had nothing to with that heinous act have been subjected to highly serious threats and blamed only because of their gender identity.
‘This is one of the steps in genocide, and we will continue our efforts to protect trans lives. While we wholeheartedly believe in the mission and message we put forth for a trans day of vengeance, we must prioritize the safety of our community and the people that make it up. In an ideal world we would have continued on in defiance of the attempt to silence our right to free expression.
The group said they lack the resources to ensure safety for those participating in the protests and would not, ‘in good conscience’, proceed with the event. They said they have notified the relevant agencies of the cancelation.
TRAN distances itself from the transgender shooter. A statement on their website says they grieve the deaths of those killed in Nashville and “reject any connection between the shooting and outs.”
