At least 33 transgender and gender non-conforming people were killed in the U.S. this year -- the most since 2017. Now, the community is speaking out amid the racial justice movements.

Busanet was trying to catch her breath when someone ran up behind and struck her in the head with a long piece of metal, knocking her to the ground. The attacker then made derogatory remarks about her, according to police.Jaslene Busanet speaks to ABC News about being attacked on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles on Aug. 17, 2020.

"You wanna talk about black lives matter, but a black girl is sitting on the floor," said Allen, as she tried to render aid for Busanet, who was crying on the ground after being struck in the head.In a video being investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department, three transgender women were attacked by a group of men on Hollywood Blvd. in Los Angeles, Aug. 17, 2020.

ABC News has independently confirmed 33 violent deaths of transgender and gender non-conforming people in 2020, most recently the death of Sara Blackwood in Indianapolis on National Coming Out Day.

100% fake news. Nobody gives a shit about someone who’s transgender. It doesn’t even make sense saying that is the deadliest year for transgendered why because of put on fall no kidney failure diabetes Covid what? How is this so deadly for transgendered right now?

Ms; Honey is gorgeous!

33 people.

Is it more than 40% yet? Are we making progress 😂😂😂!?

We gotta get these people the mental healthcare they deserve and desperately need.

I see there are some right bastards in this thread that don't care that other humans are being murdered, maybe because they're not actually fkn human themselves.

👍 This is VERY GOOD news!👏

Wow, so many transphobes amused by the deliberate murder of innocent human beings.

33? That's all? That doesn't qualify as news.

I searched the article & there's no mention of the word 'suicide', even though that's the highest cause of death of transgenders.

I feel like all groups say this every year. “This year has been the deadliest on record for ......” Plug in which ever noun you want.

these males need mental help not to be used as political pawns. No surprise he was attacked by black thugs why because the nationalities most against gays are black Hispanic & middle eastern. So what would their attitude be to males suffering from transgender illness?

I guess they should stop living such high risk lifestyles and killing themselves...

Murder is evil. Yet, if you look into the numbers, many of these people were not killed for being trans/black. Many were killed by the same race. Some were killed who were breaking the law. Few were killed because they were trans.

Indeed everyone's life matters, but let's not twist reality...a so called 'trans-female' is a male... Chromosomes don't change...the world can keep the lie up, but not everyone in it will...

Never seen a trans around where I live, must be them city slicker things. With that said aren’t majority of trans in major cities, cities that have been painted blue for a LONG time? Hmmm... crazy.

Answer is to only do that sh1t in your house. Where it's safe to play pr3tend.

OBAMAS PEOPLES

we can get higher come on boys and girls

Perhaps keeping your trans identity perversions to yourself, and actually seeking out more liberal partners and being without any deceit, would prevent against such deadliness....

Yeah, well don’t go run around telling all your trans & watch where you run...I don’t see too many people running around hollering what they are xcept idiots on twitter who for whatever advertise they’re gay, or bi etc..in reality just prostituting themselves for a hookup..!

I've seen so many news about trans people getting murdered but has anybody figured out why? Like, is there a particular set of circumstances that lead to this or is it just blind hatred from random men?

This is all because of Trump, and republicans who favor big government when it comes to forcing their bullshit religion on everyone. Meanwhile, it's Heterosexual Whites, mostly in Red states molesting kids.

That's because fascists like Trump made it that way.

shame how many cops ? wake the fk up woke maggots

That super crazy

The transgender community is the loudest community. That is all.

More preferential treatment wanted!

My son believes he is a dog, does that make him trans-species? Should I get a leash, walk him daily, pick up his poo, and arrange surgery to attach a tail? OR SHOULD I TELL HIM HE IS NOT A DOG?

Mate this year has been the deadliest for all people and if we are not vigilant it’s not over yet by a long haul!

....... dare we say...... all lives matter ?

10 ? And , who hurt them ? Won't say will you ?

gorg77 is my hero. His journey and his strength are amazing.

Look kinda gettin fucken boring now black life matters all life matters what about boy in India got raped and The girl in Spain Boy in Italy irish english Africans does it matter what colour what fucken race what religion end of the day we all feel pain we all HUMANS

R these Sex workers?

Why Black Trans Lives Matter? What an odd prerequisite.

《環球時報》的“美麗夢想”-印度將在與中國的戰爭中失敗，也輸給了光環，即《環球時報》承認中國是冠狀病毒之父

Because blacks are killing them. Report the real story.

All lives matter... even those who suffer from mental illness.

Has there been a lot of historical recording of murder against the transgender community? Just curious how much data y’all are referencing.

Thought I was at NBC for a second.

2020, been deadly for the whole earth 🌎

All LIVES MATTER xx

It's strange the focus on the race of the victims while completely ignoring the race of the murderers. Any reason why?

What about albino Peruvian Eskimoan trans?

BTLM sounds like a sandwich I make at home

Black Lives Matter is responsible for the death of 36 people of color in just four months. That is more than police have killed in 4 years. If you want social justice than say no to BLM!

It's popular to be hateful of trans people. the haters see no harm it it. this is the result.

They are tho? Bc they're black?

From; Magenta!

Hey ABC News what was the deadliest year on record for the Police. Where is your story on that.

There have always been guys who want to 'beat up queers.' Since trans 'girls' are more out now, they become visible targets.

COVID affects all creatures

Please help! Please retweet/share! 8-months-old baby Joshua is battling acute lymphocytic leukemia, a type of blood cancer. His life is dependent on chemotherapy & a stem cell transplant. Help Joshua's family in offsetting the cost of his treatment here:

It isn’t whitey killing these “BIPOC” gender benders though. So what exactly does it have to do with the “racial justice movement”?

this year has been the deadliest on record for law enforcement. why aren’t you reporting on that

Knowledge is power which leads to tolerance & understanding💙💚💛

hi, to anyone reading this, can you please share my moms go fund me? She survived COVID-19 but still needs help, Just one share would mean the world to mom and I ❤️ ❤️ 🙏🏽 thank you for all prayers, donated funds and shares of this campaign

A terrible shame and because this country has lost its way. There is so much hate and division being pushed by so many. If everyone treated others as they want to be treated we would be a much better place. Don’t blame someone else for how you act

As Governor Cuomo says follow the science. If you have a penis you are a male. If you have a vagina you are a female. FACT (in Cuomo's voice)

Trump is responsible for this

This needs to be fixed ASAP. Vote2020 HumanDignity

Their lives do matter...Black Trans lives Matter...

Most of these are not hate crime murders. 2020 has a major spike in violent crime across the country and I suspect the rise in death of trans people is directly proportional to the overall rise in violent crime in 2020

That dude's a hottie.

Are transgender people only people of color? Do transgender people not have enough problems and now there is inclusiveness needed only for black transgender? What about white trans people? They get double whammy of being white and transgender so they can go to hell

I'm so sorry

What about for toasters? I identify as a four-slot Hamilton Beach toaster and I feel at danger every time I leave my house thanks to bigots.

MY life matters!🙄

How the recording process? Has it improved? We keep better records it’s gonna seem worse. 2019 was 25?

Biden and Harris are going to listen to the science and according to science there is only two genders so why are we talking about homosexuality that is not a gender .ask science

We have the BidenLeaks and the BidenTapes and this is your news? What has happened to ABC? The Chinese are releasing film after film, document after document. We literally have a compromised candidate who is running for president. Where is ABC?

Can’t it be All lives matter why still draw lines and write headings ? And discretely still highlight the differences of race gender and sexuality 🙏

STAY OUT THE WOMENS BATHROOM YOUR A MAN ‼️💯

I don't understand any of the ethniticity gripe.... Simple. All lives matter!

Why? They should’ve all been on lockdown..

but they're not an exception. 2020 has been hard on everyone!

Listen 👂 to science...

It's been the worst for EVERYBODY

If only we knew who were the perpetrators and what community they belong to... If only...

neverforgetfamo They couldn’t be any more included if they wanted too. Some would argue they a little too visible given their numbers also deadliest ever so like 30? And how many was killed for being black but it’s being spun as a Trans assault. Point is this is a distraction

Deport them all.

Black Lives Matter Co-Founder On Her New Book, 'The Purpose of Power'Alicia Garza helped start the Black Lives Matter movement back in 2013. 'So much of my work has been guided by my mother — and wanting Black women like my mom who are superheroes for the people in their lives to be able to pursue their dreams,' she says. How much has she pocketed? Taxpayer funded propaganda. She wants to keep racism alive to profit off white liberals who don’t want her moving into their neighborhood, but want that BLM lawn sign to show they’re superior beings. Nobody with a hairdo like that should be taken seriously.
