In Miami, Florida, at least two LGBTQ+ people were horribly attacked and beaten by a group of people in what authorities believe may have been an act of hate crime. These people included an unexplained gay and trans person.
A video of the incident, which happened on November 26, shows several gentlemen assaulting girls in the Wynwood neighborhood of Miami. The subjects can be heard pleading with the adversaries to stop the violence and informing them that authorities have been called.
A male friend of the group, which included gays and a trans woman, is seen being attacked by two people wearing white shirts who attempted to act.
One victim received multiple punches, and as a result of the assault, she gradually passed out.
The sufferer, who requested anonymity, told NBC6 South Florida that before the murder started, the men who attacked the party hurled racist insults at them.
She remarked,” Basically, this group of guys just started screaming things at us, anti-lesbian comments, like,’ You’re only lesbians because you have n’t received actual,’ and he used a profanity word.
As the adversaries” struck]her” in the neck and “messed up” her hand, she feared that she might need surgery.
She continued,” So it’s been a very difficult time.” ” And do n’t forget about the nightmares of being attacked and seeing my friend lying bloodless on the ground.”
Due to being punched and rendered unconscious, another LGBTQ+ victim admitted to the news outlet that she did n’t recall much of the Florida attack.
Although she was unable to comprehend the circumstances surrounding the assault, she “definitely felt” that the girls were “targeted” by the group of men.
She remarked,” I mean, they were certainly trying to hate because we were gay.”
Although no arrests have been made as of yet, a Miami Police Department spokesman informed NBC News that the investigation is still ongoing.
Police are looking into the assault as a potential love violence, the spokesperson added.
The director said,” Like any research, we have to circle the Is and mix the T’s.”
” We are collaborating with our LGBTQ+ contact and the love crime task force at the State Attorney’s Office.”
Before we start our arrest ( s ), we must make sure we have everything planned out.
In Florida, animosity toward LGBTQ+ citizens has grown.
Florida is “openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color, and LGBTQ+ individuals,” according to a March warning from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People ( NAACP).
The largest LGBTQ+ rights organization in the nation, the Human Rights Campaign, soon after joined the civil rights group in issuing the notice.
Both emphasized the danger that recently passed laws and policies by governor Ron DeSantis, such as the” Do n’t Say Gay” law and attacks on gender-affirming healthcare, posed to minority groups, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ people.
After witnessing anti-LGBT+ problems in the state, a transgender person told PinkNews that he “had to keep all “he knew behind in Florida only to “feel healthy” again.
He believed that in part due to the divisive politics promoted by Republican lawmakers, bigots in Florida have been given the freedom to explicitly extended hatred.
