https://splinternews.com/friends-say-that-sibling-murdered-by-dayton-shooter-was-1837035664

Accounts from friends and social media profiles belonging to a victim in last weekends shooting in Dayton, OH, whose name was previously reported as Megan Betts, indicate that Betts was a transgender man who went by Jordan Cofer and used he/him pronouns.

According to media reports, Cofer, 22, was the sibling of shooting suspect Connor Betts, and was the first victim in the mass shooting in Daytons Oregon district that left nine dead and 27 wounded. It appears that Cofer was out as a trans man to only a handful of people, and there is no indication at this time that his gender identity was a motivating factor in his death.

What a fucking shitty thing

What a fucking shitty thing

uh what? are you implying that this attack is somehow worse because a transgendered person was a victim, even tho there is nothing to indicate that played any role in it?

I was assuming that comment was referring to the shooting, and him taking out a sibling.

No, its a shitty fucking thing because every single news outlet has been identifying him by a name and identity he no longer identified with. Megan Betts or whatever it is was basically just a mask he wore around people he didnt trust with his real self, and that is what got plastered all over social media, all over every news station, listed in every newspaper. It sucks separate from the attack.

It can't be deadnaming if you've never bothered to tell anyone your 'live' name or whatever.

Accidental, unintentional, or even unknowing deadnaming is still deadnaming. Im not even assigning blame here. Im just saying its a shitty, fucked up mess. And it wouldnt have happened if this fucking guy hadnt decided to murder his own flesh and blood.

He didnt even come out yet, so plastering that fact everywhere basically goes against their wishes too

Then did NOT choose to reveal except to close people. The WORLD has no right to know

Fuck off. Your article itself says the person wasn't actually out as trans. There was no reason for any of the media to suspect such a thing. This is the least important thing in the entirety of this series of events to get upset about.

He tweeted at his brother using a twitter account using his preferred name, I dont see how his brother could have been unaware.

He had a public twitter account and was clearly out to close friends. Partially out is still out, and lets be real, the reason trans people dont come out to everyone is because they far for their own safety - Jordan doesnt have anything left to fear for at this point since hes already dead.

Inventing things to get mad about. Because murder isn't worse than this "deadnaming" horseshit.

Never change.
