Chicago Mayor Declares “State of Emergency” Over Just 1 Trans Victim Amid An Ongoing Massacre

Six dead. Thirty-nine shot. A Juneteenth weekend meant to celebrate freedom became another massacre on Chicago’s streets. In a recent report, Revolver News documented Mayor Brandon Johnson’s announcement that “Since declaring a Transfemicide State of Emergency, our administration has strengthened the City’s capacity to support LGBTQ+ Chicagoans.” The city and its activist allies define “transfemicide” as “the targeted killing of a transgender [person] motivated by transphobic and misogynistic hatred.” That, of course, makes zero sense in the context of reality, but the left seldom makes sense. Johnson frames it as a matter of belonging — arguing that “the sense of belonging [transgender Chicagoans] deserve in their city has been denied by exclusion and barriers to opportunity in spaces that should feel safe and welcoming.” While the investigation of this weekend’s shootings has just begun, the mayor decided this was the emergency worth talking about.

The Numbers Don’t Lie

Chicago has averaged roughly 645 homicides per year over the last decade, with transgender homicides totaling less than .025% of the victims over that span. Of course, that means more than 99.975% of the victims were non-transgender. With over 200 murders already this year, Johnson declares an emergency for the group statistically safer than everyone else in his city. Even allies noticed. “Nobody knows what a ‘Transfemicide State of Emergency’ is. This is what the Mayor of Chicago is focused on.”

What God Actually Says

Scripture leaves no room for guessing about identity or truth. “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them” (Genesis 1:27). That is not bigotry — that is the design of a holy God who does not make mistakes. Romans 1 warns what happens when a society exchanges truth for a lie: confusion follows, and nations crumble from within. Chicago lacks not compassion, but truth.

Compassion Without Compromise

Hear this: no one is beneath love, and no one is beyond hope. But love does not mean silence, and compassion does not mean agreement. People trapped in confusion don’t need a “framework.” They need sound counsel, healing, and deliverance through Jesus Christ — truth spoken over them, not a new system that allows them and counsels them to stay mentally ill.
