‘Feel Our Pain’ Trans Activist Shrieks at San Francisco Board of Supervisors
Last week, transgender activist Lia McGeeve screamed at the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, shrieking uncontrollably into the microphone.
“I hate this, I hate what you’ve done to us. I hate what you’re doing to us. I hate you, Board of Supervisors. I hate you, [Mayor] London Breed. I hate you, [District Attorney Brooke] Jenkins.”

McGeeve was protesting the shooting of Banko Brown, a black, trans-identifying man who was killed while attempting to rob a Walgreens in San Francisco. Michael-Earl Wayne Anthony, the security guard on duty who fatally shot Brown, was not charged by San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins. According to a report from the San Francisco Standard, Brown spat at and charged the security guard before Wayne Anthony fired in self-defense.
The District Attorney determined, “After careful review of all of the evidence gathered by the San Francisco Police Department in this case, my office will not be pursuing murder charges, at this time, in connection to the shooting.” Adding that, “The evidence clearly shows that the suspect believed he was in mortal danger and acted in self-defense.” DA Jenkins explained that after viewing surveillance footage of the incident, Wayne Anthony could not reasonably be brought up on charges.
“I live in D6 (District 6). I hate a lot of people on this board, for the reasons that led up to Banko Brown’s death. So, often I prepare something, maybe it’s a little historical, may even be a little poetic, whatever. There’s a lot of performative people on this board who will say one thing and support Black people, homeless people, trans people, and then immediately stab you in the face, being racist, transphobic, anti-homeless.”

“So, I am going to spend the next minute screaming ’cause that is what is going on in here. That is what the trans genocide in this country, in this city, has brought me to.”
Oftentimes the progressive left will excuse violent outbursts, looting, and protests, dubbing it “retribution” for “systemic oppression.” According to the Post Millennial, radical protestors such as Jessica Nowlan from Young Women’s Freedom, are now “demand[ing] an end to armed security.”
