What's interesting is that trans people are statistically less likely to commit violent crime, but 40% of trans people report being a victim of violent crime at least once in their lives: https://www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/national/advocates-exper...

And as it turns out, right wing extremists are committing the most acts of terrorism in the US: https://www.csis.org/analysis/escalating-terrorism-problem-u...

In this specific case, the person was banned from ChatGPT before committing this atrocity, so is there not an imperative to report it to police? I can't even understand how this is actually controversial, but I imagine it would be less to you if this person didn't identify as a gender you don't agree with.

Didn't the US jail a guy for making a joke about Charlie Kirk? Didn't Don Lemon get arrested for protesting? How about the US government making it illegal to monitor ICE's activity?

As a Canadian, I can't think of anyone getting arrested for comments they made online, unless they are truly hate/violence/threats which would get anyone arrested in similar countries such as the US.

Just this week there was a white nationalist group protesting in Hamilton, and no one was arrested.

Europe is also not a country, it is a continent with many countries having different laws surrounding free speech.
