Truly awful! I am pleased that it was only 18 people turning up, and not hundreds, though. It gives me some hope…

I hope you are ok physically and emotionally - I am so angry with the way the police treated you and continue to treat transgender people. It’s time they took a good hard look at themselves!

The thing that really gives me hope, is of all the passers by, there was only one that vocalised support for the anti-trans rally. Everyone else was appalled by it.

Amazing!

This is how these rallies go, counter protesters outnumber the protest and the police regularly watch the counter protesters not the protesters even though the later have been known to share the same space as neo Nazis.

Sorry the police hassled you.

Omg that’s terrible. I’m glad they had some support from

The public. Unfortunately a lot of police are old white right wing guys who are afraid of progression.

Qld police are famous for it. Glad the public were not as stupid or rude or ignorant as the protesters.
