? Where is it coming from that she was queer and what has that to do with anything?
It doesn’t matter if she is queer or not, it’s completely irrelevant.
If she had been an African American man, or an Asian Transgender woman, it would, should, not have mastered at all, it is just as tragic and it’s still murder
Having said that, so yeah, you have a paramilitary organization murdering people in the US. Again, the wording is weird, “anti civilian” is a really weird synonym for murderers, but putting that aside… What are you going to do about it?
In that case, I think it’s valid to ask if her being queer influenced the sturmabteilung ICE officer’s decision to kill her. There is absolutely discrimination and increased violence from authorities against queer people due to them being queer, but I’m not sure if this is a matter of using disproportionate force against her due to her sexual orientation or if it’s just a matter of ICE being violent in general.
That’s the equivalent of asking whether George Floyd being black influenced the cops’ decision to kill him, or if it’s just a matter of cops being violent in general.
Her being queer has nothing to do with the murder as far as I know. Media is purposely adding this to fire some unneeded discussion. You should he outraged that they need to mention this instead of falling for the obvious bait.
Sure, but that’s not what’s being asked. People are asking why it’s mentioned that she’s queer at all, and the answer simply is that she’s queer. It’s concerning that that fact seems to be not good enough for some people.
Some people get upset when they hear that white people can be vulnerable minorities too. They want a monopoly on being oppressed, so queerness isn’t a valid identity to them.

Are you kidding? If an African American person gets murdered by cops on video, we get nationwide protests and a months-long focus on racial reckoning.
But a white queer person gets murdered by cops on video, and suddenly her queerness doesn’t matter and is irrelevant? Murder is murder?
In other words, you’re saying “all lives matter” as opposed to “queer lives matter”?

That wouldn’t be taken very well, would it?
Did the murdering officer know that the woman was queer? George Floyd’s skin color was rather obvious to anyone close enough.
Does she need to wear a fucking pink triangle on her sleeve for you people to stop trying to erase her identity?
What people are you talking about?
In what way? And how does that at all relate to this?
People like you, everyone coming here to complain in the comments that the headline described her as queer.
What you’re doing is advocating for erasure. Don’t play dumb.
What erasure? Wtf are you talking about.

Probably the multiple reports describing her wife’s reaction to the shooting?
I don’t understand why people are getting upset over this particular detail, but it’s concerning.
Because it’s not their favored pet cause.
