The Trans Resistance Network is an organization which purports to defend transgender interests. The group offers “mutual aid” and “community defense” as part of its services. In the wake of transgender Nashville shooter Audrey Hale’s mass murder of 6 innocent people (including 3 children) at Covenant School, the Trans Resistance Network issued a statement that said, “The second and more complex tragedy is that Aiden or Aubrey Hale, who felt he had no other effective way to be seen than to lash out by taking the life of others, and by consequence, himself.” The group sought to pin the blame for Hale’s crime on so-called “anti-trans legislation.”
