This thread is dedicated to Fallacy of Relative Privation slinging heightism-deniers who stifle heightism discussions with such falsehoods as "Heightism isn't an issue because no one has ever been killed on account of their height."

In this story, two homicidal, Satan worshiping middle schoolers in Bartow, FL made concrete plans to kill smaller students so that they could meet Satan, but were thankfully stopped in the process. They chose smaller students because they believed that they are easy targets and would be unable to defend themselves.
"The girls decided they would attend their first-period classes, then meet in a bathroom, where they would wait for smaller students and overpower them, according to a police report. They "did not want to attack larger students," the report says."
So, those who spout fallacies about how "no one has ever been killed on account of their height" are proven wrong once again. It has already been proven that serial killers prefer smaller victims, bullies prefer to bully those who they feel they have a physical advantage over, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police admitted that they are more prone to attacking short men because their training manual literally said that all problems were started by "little guys," yet, simpletons who claim to know everything would have us believe that no one has ever been chosen as a victim based purely on their height. I remember when Geoff Arnold pointed-out that Matthew Shepard who died as the victim of a hate crime was not only chosen as a victim because he was gay, but also because he was something like 4'10. Geoff was absolutely eviscerated for this claim, thus, we are supposed to believe that if Shepard were built like an NFL linebacker, no one would think twice about attacking him. This is the kind of nonsense people want us to believe, even when we have direct evidence proving otherwise.
The bottom line is, short people are often targeted for bullying, hazing, lambasting, and yes, physical violence because of their size. No one in their right mind is going to believe a physical trait that universally makes people an easy target does not act as a catalyst for people within that group to be chosen as targets of crimes. The same people who try to feed us that bill of goods are also going to tell us that the girls in this story were going to kill people who were "smaller," not shorter as if smaller isn't synonymous with shorter in this case. No
rationally-thinking person is going to think these girls were going to target tall, slender students instead of short ones.
The fact that it was girls who were going to do the killing in this scenario is also important because this incident can't just be written off as a case of "toxic masculinity" and a reason to focus on the evilness of the male gender; This was merely a case of some girls with a twisted agenda who knew damn well who the easy targets are in society. They were using smaller students as a means to accomplish a twisted agenda just like the videos we see of tall people picking short people up against their will and choosing the smallest person in the group to attack when an altercation ensues.
The fact is that short people ARE often targets for violence up-to-and-including murder; It's just that society does not care enough about heightism to start compiling databases on height regarding victims of serious crimes. Also, many crimes that are committed against women are carried-out due to women being generally smaller than males, thus, their size is often more of a catalyst than their genitalia. This is just another inconvenient fact that society ignores, and in this story, we have yet more evidence that size is an extremely influential factor in determining whether or not someone becomes the victim of a crime.
