Allen Andrade, the man that killed transgender teen Angie Zapata, was convicted today of first-degree murder and a hate crime. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole. This is a huge breakthrough for transgender rights, as this is the first time that a state hate crime statute has been used to prosecute a transgender person's murder.

Emergency contraception will now be available without a perscription for those age 17 and older. Girls under 17 will still need a perscription to obtain it (which I disagree with, but I don't really feel like getting into that right now).
About Me
- Amanda
- Michigan, United States
- I'm a feminist, a lesbian, an animal-lover and meat-eater (I never said I was perfect), I like movies and I dig music. I don't do drugs, I own a guitar I can't play, and my sofa does not belong to me. I surround myself with kick-ass people. I celebrate that which makes me happy, and I gripe about shit that doesn't.
