HeyJackass! brings us the June Wrap-up
To understand the following statement, you would need to know that Mayor Brandon Johnson claimed a couple of things. One is that there is epidemic of violence against transwomen of color. Which may or may not be true, but that isn't really going to move the statistics much in either direction.
Despite the 🚨Transfemicide State of Emergency🚨, The Summer of Silly Decisions got off to nearly the same start as last year.
June 2026: 43 killed, 157 wounded
June 2025: 42 killed, 140 wounded
June 2024: 74 killed, 323 wounded
So it is more than last year, and less than 2024. Actually it is much less than 2020 or 2021. Does that mean that crime is down, or is it up?
Aside from the statment about transwomen of color, Johnson has claimed that this entire wave of death and violence is all Nixon's fault. Richard Nixon. This isn't the first time Brandon Johnson has brought up Nixon. He won't let it go. (It used to be a wonderful city.)
It's So Obvious!
