Chicago, Chicago, that toddling town: Or it was some time ago when Frank Sinatra sang about it.

Now it’s in the throes of something called a “Transfemicide State of Emergency,” according to Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, with no time for a little toddling around the dance floor.

Posting to his X account, Johnson announced in all apparent seriousness: “Since declaring a Transfemicide State of Emergency, our administration has strengthened the City’s capacity to support LGBTQ+ Chicagoans.”

Mayor Brandon Johnson fiddles when there are killings taking place. Wokeness kills.

I have no clue what “Transfemicide” is supposed to mean. What I am aware of is that trans people commit a disproportionate share of violence, disproportionate to their percentage in society.
