Attacking transgender people was just a way to get their foot in-the door to dismantling the entire gay community! I've been telling people this. What they want is the eradication of the gay community entirely, and they'll do it one letter at a time, if need be. They picked the smallest, least organized, and understood members of the community, and started their usual spiel about children and women being in danger. It always leads to eventually attacking adults as the rhetoric and hysteria ramps up.
For those people it never stops at just one thing. They are obsessed with other peoples sexual activities and their genitalia, and insist that people's private behavior (behavior that affects no one but those involved) must be controlled by the government.
