    Well she is being actively targeted by her ex-roomate and ex-land lord and the cops won’t do anything to stop them. Trans people are at a heighten risk of being murdered and us lawmakers are criminalizing being trans so this is persecution.

      Being targeted by a single person doesn’t make someone applicable for asylum. And there are about 49 other states this person can move to if they actually cared about finding a solution. We shouldn’t put this person on the same level as victims of state-sponsored genocide, political prisoners, and others. There are other plenty of other cases of people not receiving police protection from stalkers, just because they’re trans doesn’t means that’s why.
