I've watched it. Terrible.
I'm from Eastern Europe and can't find any difference between this and 1944 Nazi-occupied Warsaw executions on random Jews.

Homo sapiens will never find enlightenment. We are welded to the material world. Shit like this is a part of human nature. The outsider is never welcomed.
The only real hope I have is the pace of technological change will reach a point where I can evolve myself right the fuck out of here.

Five suspects were arrested.

They are teenagers...
That's sad. So young, yet full of hate. I'm not surprised though. I live in Fortaleza, and see homophobic acts often. Disgusting.

Agreed.
Didn't watch.
As a Trans person I'm likely not as horrified, just sad because I have gotten to the point where I don't think we get the care that others do, and even something as horrific as this many will just over look.
Plus I don't expect any justice to happen given it happened in Brazil.

I checked out of the video once they decided what to do with her. Utter revulsion and close to tears for the poor poor woman who was subjected to such evil violence. What
I'm sorry but the perps need to go, and I don't mean in jail, not a single fiber of their being regrets what they have done, by doing such a henious act, they burnt any bridge to live.

I wonder why the Russian numbers are so low. Are the real numbers surpressed or are just very few out trans people.
Just curious: What does this data look like when normalized by (total murders * total trans) / total populationAll the data posted was regard LGBT as a whole, so here is just the trans deaths :

We don't really know the total number of trans people, so its hard to estimate honestly.
Holy shit this ruined my day. Knowing this type of evil exist is hard to comprehend. How much blood needs to spilled when we know outright with all the info available to us, wars that have been fought, records of discrimination that this treatment is vile, inhumane and needless. Someone lost a life, for what? Utterly depressing.

Yeah this is why I'm closeted.
33 years. Combination of the high suicide rate, high murder rate, and High-HIV rate due to so many being forced to do sex work to survive.

So infuriating.
What the fuck kind of masculinity are you even establishing when you're ganging up with multiple other people on one victim?

This is absolutely unforgivable and horrible.

I will never understand the state of mind you have to be in to do something like that. Maybe it's what you doing when your macho culture is built around a fragile sense on masculinity, but I simply can't begin to understand it.

From the document
The three points, 1, 2 and 3, are explained in detail in the document. Basically, stat collecting may not be easy or accessible for some countries, so what they are reporting on if taken at face value may look skewed (woah, Russia, so progressive!). Often when it comes to governmental figures, the deaths/casualties/attacks are just under the umbrella of LGBT, rather than broken down further.
Those Latin American numbers in general. :/All the data posted was regard LGBT as a whole, so here is just the trans deaths :

That is horrific. Cannot believe someone would do that to another human being.
For those edgy posters who love to complain about the west, we're better at a lot of things, always have been. Not killing people who are different anymore is now one of those things.
Those numbers aren't adjusted for population. In terms of population it might be.

Interesting... Before I saw this I would betted on Jamaica being in the top. Yay I guess? :^/
I always felt that its important to have these kind of threads. People forget how horrible the world can be sometimes to the point where they deny it and that's dangerous.

"Between October 2015 and September 2016 in Brazil alone 123 trans and gender-variant people were murdered.
Within the same period, 295 were murdered across the world."
That would mean about 30% of transpeople murders in the world contained just in Brazil, in that period of time. Seems like a big issue there.

I would imagine you need to have normalisation and acceptability of high levels of bigotry in a culture or country towards some people enough to dehumanise them, and when you combine that with a sociopathic mind, that's where you get a person who's willing to kill someone not like themselves.
While it's probably common in all of Brazil, Fortaleza is actually first ranked here in Brazil on violence and top 12 in the world. http://g1.globo.com/ceara/noticia/2016/01/fortaleza-aparece-como-cidade-mais-violenta-do-brasil-e-12-do-mundo.html
And yeah, unfortunately there's a lot of hate around here. It's getting better but it's still pretty terrible.

I think the guys that did this to the trans women deserve worse. Treating a person as something less that human, beating them and killing them simply because they "exist" is wrong. When you do, I believe, you forfeit your own humanity and become the epitome of "less than human" through your actions. THOSE types of fucks should be beaten like the beasts they are. I have no sympathy for people like that when they get what's coming to them.

Disgusting. Hopefully the universe gives the killers the same type of energy they gave their victim.

The topic relates to a genuinely serious problem in Brazil, and globally, plus it has also given chance to ask some people to watch something short, but educational, as the Gaycation episode in Brazil.
Senseless violence topics that tend to get locked on GAF are usually those that have no political or social complexities behind them. Simply random acts of violence. Of course, it can be a fine line at times, but people should just leave that up to the mods to decide if there is doubt. I seriously doubt Beefy has just posted the topic to shock, as I said there are serious political and social issues in Brazil with LGBT (of which a few posters on GAF didn't know and had to ask in here).

The juxtaposition of the casual clothing, flip flops etc that these cunts are wearing and what they are doing is remarkably eerie.
What people can do when in a mob is beyond fucked up.
Poor poor bastard, nobody deserves that.

Violence in Brazil can make it seem like hell on earth.
As a trans person in Brazil to a trans person in the USA : FUCK YOU
I WISH I had the conditions and safety you have. This is NOTHING compared to the USA. NOTHING.
This is not why you are closeted because you don't live anywhere NEAR this stuff. Even if you are in the worst place in the USA you are miles better and you just need to move 2 states away. If I want what you have I need to move to almost another continent, where I will not only be trans, but Latina and immigrant.
