Wyoming’s “stand your ground” law is supposed to offer legal protections to gun owners who draw in self-defense, yet Ms. Kelver was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and possession of a deadly weapon with unlawful intent, charges that carry up to 15 years in prison.
The case has touched off an impassioned debate in one of the country’s most gun-friendly, staunchly Republican states about whether the Second Amendment applies when the person holding the gun is transgender.
Also the framing of “biological female”. The victim here almost certainly used the word “cisgender”. Motherfucker, hormones are biological, feminine brains are biological, secondary sex characteristics are biological. If you mean “karyotypic female” then just say so, I’m sure your readers are up to the task of reading precise words.
