A single trans athlete competes in sports and hundreds of laws are introduced. Children are murdered on a daily basis and it's a fact of life.

A girl won the role of Seymour in South Grand Prairie High School in Texas.
Then, the district freaked out because of Texas' anti-trans and anti-gay law.
So they tried to strip her role and give it to a boy.
She refused, so now they are cancelling the play.
