Brown, Kevin Wilson, Nun Ya, Tim Cushing, and Emma Evans, in that order.

#he should demand a refund: ““I knew he was a violent man,” Rukundo told the BBC. “But I didn’t believe he can kill me.””
Ladies, ladies, ladies. Stop hooking up with and marrying violent dirtbags. At the very least, stop picking men *because* they are violent dirtbags. I mean, honestly!
The article calls the kidnappers principled. That’s bullshit, they took money for a job they didn’t complete because they’re sexist (“they didn’t believe in killing women”), then lied about it.
I think it should be pointed out that the “not for any reason” link – like most accounts of this horribleness in the “mainstream” media – adds insult to injury by misgendering the victim, who was AFAB but began transitioning shortly after the “rottweiler” video was posted and ID’d as male at the time of his murder.
If you want an account that gets his gender right, Buzzfeed has one: http://www.buzzfeed.com/salvadorhernandez/trans-man-suffering-from-aspergers-syndrome-killed-by-arizon#.sd0GPGg8q
(Edit: the Indy seems to have corrected their story while I was typing this. The URL still says “woman”, but the article itself now correctly genders him. My apologies for clogging up your comments)
