So today the president gave a pardon to an American soldier who killed a Filipino transgender back in 2014. His justification why he gave the pardon is one you would expect from him. Of course, it is the hotly debated topic now on social media and as expected it went ugly especially those supporting the decision. I know transgender is a concept that won't be easy to grasp here in the country but the hate I'm seeing right now, unbelievable. Personally, I've only learned to understand transgenders fairly recently as well but still we are talking about living people here. They're not an "it" like how that person referred to the victim.
It's so hard not to be jaded. The negativity never stops.
