  1. What is up with all of these murderous men on dating sites! Damn. Another reason not to do.

  2. It seems living in the US has become a horrorshow !

  3. I do not feel sorry. Stop being trans. It’s going to end one way or another

  4. them online dating sites are creepy

  5. And then people ie men get annoyed when women are extra careful about what they do, where they go, and with who.

  6. I wonder if they were fooling around and he discovered he was with a boy, and lost it. You hear of those stories

  7. Absolutely horrible and despicable!!!

  8. Is this a hate crime or did he get 'tricked'? If he had a girlfriend definitely a hate crime. If he was 'tricked' he should have just moved the hell on.

  9. Why would the parents allow the teen to engage in online dating in the first place? Unwise.

  10. He was probably targeted because he was transgender. This was definitely a hate crime. That man already had a girlfriend. He didn't deserve to die like that. Rest in peace young man💔

  11. I go on online dates a lot and rarley take precautions. Ive been on a lot of dates with guys and even went to thier houses. Yeah I was young and dumb. But I never had a bad experience luckily . My mom is paranoid about this.

  12. If h 18, hes and ADULT..

  13. Dont go online dating

  14. JOSHUA IS A TRUMP SUPPORTER RON DESANTIS SYMPATHIZER.

  15. Holy crap he looks just like my ex boyfriend. I gasped when i saw the photo cuz i legit thought it was him 😩 it’s not him but i wouldn’t have been surprised.

  16. Wait….transgender teen? I see this as a win

  17. White on white crime it doesn't exist right. It's still blacks and the 13% committing 90% of the crimes right. Which is not true. Those States cannot be confirmed by the National Crime Data Base

  18. I'm sure it was grindr, tinder or pof

  19. The anti trans people have blood on their hands

  20. Clearly this man planned it out. He wanted to murder for sport.

  21. he was tyring to trick people into thinking HE was a girl.

  22. Sad that WOKE has caused a huge disruption in the LGBTQ community and this is the mess that causing. We all need to live in peace.

  23. Wouldnt be surprised if the dating app is Grindr. Very shady business goes on there.

  24. This seems very targeted. This is absolutely horrid, people can be so evil! My heart is with the victim and family

  25. A good hearted innocent soul. She didn't deserve any of this. I pray for her families healing, and that justice is served.
