Stillwater, Oklahoma, doesn't seem like a place where you would find a "transgender" nutcase who is, apparently, also an arsonist who longs for the day when he can set fire to churches. And yet here we are, with one "Cassidy Mal Lyss" arrested for the second time on arson charges - after committing a robbery, and after a social media post indicating a desire to set fire to churches.
We should note that "Cassidy Mal Lyss" is, in fact, a man named Nathan Herbert Click. A opinion column at the Western Journal by C. Douglas Golden has details.
A trans-identifying man with an extensive arrest history was charged (with) arson after setting fire to his own apartment during a standoff with police following a robbery, according to news reports.
This gem, who was charged with setting fire to his mother’s apartment in 2022, while the woman was inside, also once asked on a Facebook post, “May I start burning Churches yet?” independent journalist Andy Ngo reported.
Nathan Herbert Click — who now goes by the name Cassidy Mal Lyss (get it, “malice?”) — was arrested on the morning of Nov. 10 in Stillwater, Oklahoma, after a report of robbery, according to KOKH-TV in Oklahoma City.
Click has, on social media, expressed a desire to burn churches; Independent journalist Andy Ngo has that information:
"May I start burning churches yet?"

A violent Oklahoma trans activist named Cassidy Mal Lyss ("Malice") has allegedly set another fire—this time in an occupied building—just days after pleading guilty to other violent crimes. Read my Ngo Comment report: https://t.co/C2K011g9ZX
That's a creepy-looking character, right there. And Click had a long history, it seems, of creepy, not to mention violent, behavior. The Western Journal piece linked above continued:
He also had a history of disturbing behavior.
For instance, in 2022, there was this charming little incident, as KFOR-TV reported:
Officials say one person has been arrested after allegedly setting fire to an apartment in Stillwater.
What is it with these people?

You can see Nathan Click's booking photo here, if you're so inclined, at the Stillwater Police Department's website, where it notes that Click has been charged with Arson - First Degree, Assault and Battery, Obstructing an Officer, Robbery – First Degree, and Threaten(ing) to Perform (an) Act of Violence.
Andy Ngo notes that Click was active on social media, including "promoting his sex work on OnlyFans," and while mug shots never catch people at their best, one glance at that booking photo is inclined to make one think that Click's OnlyFans traffic must have been minimal, indeed.
Now, yes, not all transgender, leftist people are violent. But as more and more reports surface, there seem to be an alarming number who are. Now, correlation does not equal causation; as a scientist, in all honesty, I have to point that out. But there's an awful lot of smoke here for there not to be a fire somewhere underneath, and it seems that an untreated or under-treated mental illness that could lead one to thinking they are "transgender" may also lead to violence.
Nathan Click would stand very well as evidence of just that.
