    Well if you start treating them like terrorists, some might choose that path. It is a very possible self-fulfilling prophecy. Especially when you threaten their lives like that.

      That’s most likely the intention behind this. The right would be elated about news of actual trans terrorists.

        Yeah, it’s a pretty classic move. Persecute a group of people until inevitably some of them fight back, then point at that to show “see, they’re violent, so we have to crush them out of existence with as much cruelty as possible!”
