    “Gay panic” and “trans panic” defenses are used in court to excuse crimes such as murder by arguing that the victim’s sexual orientation or gender identity provoked the defendant’s violent reaction. @RepJoeKennedy and I have introduced legislation to ban this hateful practice.pic.twitter.com/RFigTGIM6a

        When you're driving and you hit a patch of ice and rear-end someone you are still responsible for not maintaining control of your vehicle. I don't see how anyone ever got away with this.

        I must say that I am astonished that such "defenses" could even exist. This is a just cause. Do it. Win it. Lead the US towards freedom, respect and justice.

        That's a new one on me. Why not freckle panic, or tall person panic? It's nonsense.
