Monday 26th December - These Are Not Our Crimes #1
REDUXX: A trans-identified male who stabbed his own parents to death is now recorded as ‘female’ in the Maine prison system.
Andrew Balcer was one month shy of his 18th birthday when he murdered his own mother and father and their dog. According to a 2019 article in The Mirror, Alice Balcer was 47 years old and an animal lover who worked for a veterinary hospital. Antonio Balcer, also 47 years old, was a retired coast guard who had become a chaplain. Both were well-liked and respected in the local community, known for their compassion and their devotion to their family.
In the early morning of 31st October 2016, Balcer phoned 911 and calmly confessed to killing both his parents. He stabbed his mother first and, he laughingly told the phone operator, when his father came to investigate her screams, he ‘stabbed the fuck out of him’ too. He also stabbed the family dog, Lily, because she had started to bark. Balcer spared his older brother, Christopher, who begged him for his life and then fled to nearby neighbours to call the police.
Alice Balcer was found face down in the bedroom with nine knife wounds to her back. Antonio Balcer was found in the kitchen with 13 stab wounds to the chest.
Initially, Balcer offered no motive for his crimes. Even by February 2017, according to news reports at the time, no explanation had been forthcoming. However, eventually, Balcer claimed that he killed his parents because they had failed to support his gender identity. Shortly before the murders, Balcer had begun calling himself Andrea and talked of wanting to ‘live as a woman’. “I killed my parents because they suppressed who I was for so long and forced me to be someone I wasn’t. I snapped”, he said.
This claim is refuted by the Balcer family. Christopher Balcer described his brother as a ‘remorseless murderer’ and vehemently denied the allegations he’d made about his parents. Alice Balcer’s brother, Carl Pierce, said that “To believe our family is intolerant or unaccepting is to know nothing of us… To justify these killings because of her [sic] identity beliefs is truly a cowardly act”.
Balcer pleaded guilty to two counts of intentional or knowing murder and one count of aggravated cruelty to animals. At his sentencing in December 2018, he was referred to as both Andrew and Andrea. He was sentenced to 40 years imprisonment and incarcerated at Maine State Prison, a maximum security facility for men.
He was originally recorded as ‘male’ in the Maine Department of Corrections directory. He is now, however, listed as ‘female’ and has been transferred to Maine Correctional Center (MCC), a mixed sex medium-to-minimum facility where most inmates are serving short prison terms of 5 years or fewer.
Balcer’s transfer was probably due to recent legislation, LD 1044, a bill which requires prisons in Maine to “Respect and acknowledge an incarcerated person’s consistently held gender identity irrespective of anatomy or physique”.
The Maine Department of Corrections has refused to fulfil Freedom of Access requests asking if, at the mixed sex facility where he’s currently incarcerated, Balcer is being accommodated with female inmates.

NBC DFW: A convicted sex offender was arrested after allegedly filming in the female bathroom of a shopping mall while dressed as a woman.
A woman was using the female toilet at Hulen Mall in Fort Worth, Texas, on Christmas Eve. She became aware of a mobile phone being held beneath the stall partition. She left the stall immediately and confronted the perpetrator who she described as a ‘male that was dressed to look like a female’.
When he tried to abscond, the victim followed him out. A bystander intervened and tried to prevent him from leaving but the suspect reached into his backpack and produced what appeared to be a gun, pointing it at the witness before fleeing.
Police officers apprehended 45-year-old Douglas Egan at an apartment complex nearby and found him to be in possession of a pepper ball gun. He was was arrested on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and taking improper video in a bathroom.
Reduxx reported that Egan is a convicted sex offender, having been issued a lifetime registration for three different incidents, all of which involved female victims. In 2010 and 2011 he was convicted of indecent exposure and in 2015 he was convicted of indecency with a child by exposure.
This is why women need single sex spaces.
Wednesday 28th December - This Never Happens
GLOBO: A trans-identified male ‘influencer’ is being investigated by Brazilian police after a brutal attack on a woman and a small baby.
Jhoy Vanderwall is a trans-identified male social media ‘influencer’ from Brazil. This week a video recorded by a CCTV camera has emerged which shows him apparently launching an unprovoked attack on a woman and a baby.
In the distressing CCTV footage, Vanderwall is seen loitering in a narrow street with three other males when a motorbike, carrying two women and two infants, approaches. Vanderwall swings a bottle at the head of the woman who is riding pillion on the back of the motorbike even though she is carrying a baby on her lap. The force of the blow throws the woman and the baby from the vehicle.
Vanderwall then grabs the woman by the hair, raining down blows to her head, first with the bottle and then with his fist. The baby is lying motionless face down in the street. A group of people then rush forward to restrain Vanderwall and a female bystander picks up the baby from the floor.
According to Globo, Vanderwall said that he attacked the woman because he believed she had been spreading ‘gossip’ about him.
Sobral Municipal Police are now investigating Vanderwall for causing intentional bodily injury.
Thursday 29th December - No Drag For Old Lags
THE DAILY MAIL: A men’s prison has been criticised by inspectors for not providing female attire and make-up for its ‘transgender’ inmates.
HM Inspectorate for Prisons undertook a random inspection of HMP Northumberland in Morpeth. It found that “Leaders had not sufficiently prioritised equality and diversity and did not pay sufficient attention to the experiences of prisoners with protected and minority characteristics”.
As an example of this issue, the inspectors pointed to ‘transgender and non-binary’ prisoners not being adequately supplied with female clothing and make-up.
Have they been in a women’s prison lately? The inmates there aren’t exactly dressed like Dynasty-era Joan Collins with the Estée Lauder being handed out for breakfast.
In April 2021 the BBC reported on the horrendous conditions at Peterborough Prison where menstrual products were being withheld from female inmates, compromising their health and dignity.
Less than two years later and trans-identified male inmates are described as ‘neglected’ because they’re not being supplied with bras and mascara.
Friday 30th December - These Are Not Our Crimes #2
THE DAILY MAIL: A trans-identified male has been charged with murdering his father and the brutal stabbing of his younger sister.
On 29th December New York police officers responded to a 911 report at an apartment building in Brooklyn. They found 61-year-old Carlo Secondino stabbed to death. His 19-year-old daughter, Liana Secondino, had also been stabbed and was rushed to hospital in a critical condition.
22-year-old trans-identified male, Nikki Secondino, has been charged with the murder of his father and the attempted murder of his sister.
Initially, police believed intruders were responsible for the stabbings but they now suspect that Secondino may have fabricated a home invasion story to cover up his crimes. According to police sources, Secondino claimed that two men dressed in black had attacked his family before fleeing the scene. However, there are numerous inconsistencies in his story and the evidence does not support his version of events.
When ABC7 Eye Witness News reported the crimes, it described Secondino as a ‘woman’ and a ‘daughter’ and referred to him with female pronouns.
The article gives no indication of Secondino’s sex and readers are left with the impression that a woman has been arrested for these horrific crimes.
Similarly, CBS New York made no reference to Secondino’s sex when reporting this story, using female pronouns with which refer to him and also describing him as a ‘woman’ and a ‘daughter’.
Despite publishing statements from family friends about Secondino and his often volatile personality - “A danger to herself [sic] or to others” - CBS omits to mention the very salient fact that he is a trans-identified male.
According to The New York Post, Secondino confessed to stabbing his father and sister and told NYPD officers that he ‘wanted them dead’. He is alleged to have told police, “I came out of the bedroom. My father was sitting on the couch, I hit him on the head with a hammer. Then I reached for my favorite German knife and stabbed the shit out of him. My sister came out and tried to stop me and I stabbed her in the back, head and stomach”.
Saturday 31st December - A Room Of One’s Own
THE GUARDIAN: A trans-identified male is waging war on female-only app, Giggle, for the third time.
In 2020 Sall Grover founded the women-only social site, Giggle. Thus far tens of thousands of women in 88 different countries have signed up. To ensure that it remains female-only, the app uses AI facial recognition software as well as screening by human eye, to prevent males from joining.
Roxanne Tickle is a trans -identified male who also uses the name ‘Roxy’. He writes a blog called The Roxy Epoch and operates a Twitter account of the same name. He tried to join the Giggle app in September 2021 but was subsequently removed from the site. His tweets at the time make clear that, despite knowing the site is female-only, he signed up and tried to evade the restrictions.
Speaking on a podcast last year, Sall Grover described how, after he was removed from the Giggle app, Tickle found her private mobile phone number and texted her, demanding to have a conversation with her. When she did not respond, he tried calling her on numerous occasions. She ignored him.
In January 2022, Tickle reported both Sall Grover and the Giggle app to the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC), accusing them of ‘gender identity discrimination’. Grover was told that, to rectify the situation, trans-identified males must be allowed to join Giggle and that women using the app must be ‘moderated’ (ie censored) when discussing gender issues. Furthermore, she and her company must submit to ‘education’ on gender identity. Of course, she refused those terms.
In June 2022, when Grover was heavily pregnant, she was informed that Tickle had escalated his complaint to the federal court. Thankfully, that complaint was ‘discontinued’ a month later.
Now Tickle is, yet again, gunning for Giggle and is taking legal action against the site. Tickle filed a lawsuit in federal court on 22nd December, claiming ‘discrimination’. He is seeking damages, a written apology and complete access to the Giggle site.
Unsurprisingly, Tickle has form re the trampling of women’s boundaries. In October 2020 he was in the news for joining a women’s hockey team and he has actively campaigned for the forced inclusion of trans-identified males in women’s sports.
Some men just can’t stand it when women tell them ‘No’, can they?
Interviewed by radio station 882 6PR in March 2022, Sall Grover pointed out, “The anger that a lot of these males have of not being allowed to be on a female app proves the need for it and why we don’t want them there.”
Sunday 1st January - Ideologies Clashing
LIVERPOOL ECHO: A trans-identified ‘gender queer’ and ‘non-binary’ male has been ordained as a Church of England priest.
36-year-old Bingo Allison describes himself as ‘non-binary’ and ‘gender queer’ and uses they/them pronouns. He has just been ordained as a Church of England vicar.
Bingo is a married man with three children who ‘came out’ about five years ago. Speaking to BBC Radio Merseyside in March 2021, Bingo described the effect of his trans identity on his wife for whom the news proved ‘difficult’. She thought she was marrying ‘a straight guy’, Bingo told the programme.
Bingo told the Liverpool Echo, “I try to get involved in, not just in my religious work but outside it, with the local secular LGBT youth groups. One of the biggest things is just being a visual representation in my community and going into schools, doing assemblies and making a huge difference in normalising it for children.”
Firstly, Bingo is a heterosexual male with a wife and three children, hardly representative of the LGBT community. Secondly, why is he being allowed to peddle gender identity ideology to kids in schools? Isn’t indoctrinating them into one religion enough?
See you next week.
Can we get away from "he uses x/y pronouns" please? It's not true. "He wants other people to use x/y pronouns to describe him" is what's really happening.
Giving mentally ill people a sense of entitlement based on something so untrue is so dangerous. Our politicians and law makers are responsible for all of this.
