      Blair’s World Gurl Reading your comment was just 🥺☹️ No one should have to be fearful of their lives because of who they are. That's saddening. And I agree, I think he definitely knows what happened to her & he's hiding so he doesn't have to speak to police or get killed himself.
      Side note, I watched your foundation review video & you should ttly make more videos. Your personality is bomb 💣💖

      @@ACoolMom It is really hard, And not to mention the reality of being a trans (woman) is even when men show interest in you, its so easy for them to say what they think you want to hear over the privacy of social media. But you always wonder if they wouldn't want their friends knowing theyre interested in trans women, and 9 times out of 10; they are only interested in you to fulfill a sexual fetish and they don't take you seriously as a female. Even in my case, married men and men with relationships messaging me...

      It should be placed into LAW that all businesses with licenses must have a recording (not just livestream) security system of the facility areas. It also should be a requirement for the businesses liability insurance if they have any at all. I really don't understand why it's not already a law to begin with. I mean think about it. They have civil laws to protect businesses I.E.finance companies that require the use of full coverage insurance in case something happens to the vehicle the bank is holding a title on. Maybe I'm thinking too hard on this one but since when are all other civil issues so much more important than people's lives?
