    Poor kid.

    What happened with the bullies that started the fight? Are they being punished for pushing a kid to kill themselves?

    What a world we live in where children are dying because people can’t manage to learn some pronouns.

      I think it has more to do with trying to dictate the language people use.

      If someone doesn’t think men can be women and vice-versa, it’s kind of patronizing and childish to get upset over it.

      Just let them be who they want and find people who accept you for who you are. Trying to change them is an effort in futility.

        So you’re saying if I get banned for telling you “shut up pussy” I should just beat you to death?

        Is that seriously the point you want to make?

        Edit: lmao, he’s now crying because I quoted his comments back to him in context and blocked me over it.

            It’s literally the topic you are responding to bright guy. Your response was

            I think it has more to do with trying to dictate the language people use.

            Meaning you think if I have my language that I use to demean you censored, it’s reasonable to react with violence.

            It’s literally your point

                How dare I make you confront the reality of your claims. You can’t blame comprehension when it’s a direct quote of your comment.

                I love that you announced this like I would be sad I made some bigot run away like a coward.

    And who caused that suicide? The bullies who beat Nex half to death.

    Let’s say the coroner isn’t full of shit, which I’m not convinced of- what was the cause of the suicide?

    Because I’m guessing it had something to do with him (he preferred he/him) having the shit beaten out of him by a bunch of bigots.

    Not that I don’t have absolute, unshakeable, limitless faith in law enforcement and local school boards, but I genuinely hope Nex’s family gets a second autopsy outside Oklahoma. Not least because their initial symptoms seemed to have a lot in common with head injury.

    No, it won’t bring Nex back. But if they did this, then establish that fact via disinterested parties. The local government and law enforcement are anything but neutral parties here.

    If Nex’s family is willing, I genuinely hope they are considering getting a second opinion: in many ways, this outcome lets the bullies off the hook . . . and not just the ones in the bathroom.

    I don’t need to know the details, but I would like to see this conclusion confirmed by another forensic medical examiner elsewhere, and I don’t think I’m the only one.
