There are 48 US States allow the "gay panic" or "trans panic" defense in which a defendant can cite a victim's sexuality or gender identity as justification for murder to obtain a lesser charge or reduced sentence as they can claim that any gay or trans person who makes a sexual advance on the is justified to use VIOLENCE

Eh, not quite. There are two states that banned it, but it's not allowed in the sense that it's a named acceptable defense and certainly doesn't apply to "any" case and won't necessarily result in lesser charges if invoked.
