If vulnerable people go in crocodile pits and are eaten, there should be no sympathy or condemning of the crocodile. If transgendered people get injured or killed in the South, there should be no sympathy or condemning of the abusers/murderers.

Any sympathy or condemning of the abusers/murderers misses the essential similarity between crocodiles and southern people who come across a transgendered person: they can't help but kill the vulnerable/transgendered person. It's the nature of southerners to kill transgendered people just as it is the nature of crocodiles to eat vulnerable people.
