Two “transgender women” were assaulted in downtown Minneapolis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No, really.  At 5th and Hennepin.  <\/p>\n

No, they weren’t (apparently) going out looking for Subway. But the story is…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

..well, I’ll let the Cheerleaders on Four pick up the story<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The incident happened Nov. 10 at Hennepin Avenue and Fifth Street in downtown Minneapolis. It’s where community members gathered for a rally Sunday afternoon, one week since the attack. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amber Muhm, a community leader with Trans Movement for Liberation, said the two trans women were attacked by a group of men at the light rail station after one of the men used transphobic slurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“No one came to help them. In fact, they said people were cheering the attackers on while they were getting beaten,” Muhm said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said the attack left one of them with a broken nose. Minneapolis police confirmed they are investigating the incident, but as of Sunday night, no one has been arrested. <\/p>\n

So – 5th and Hennepin, you say? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the busiest rail stops in the city?\u00a0<\/p>\n

With a crowd of cheering onlookers – presumably on the surveillance cameras that are all over the place down there?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not saying Berg’s 20th Law<\/a> is the governing statute here, but…<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
