    Here is my favorite quote from this report:

    https://goo.gl/wVgSH8

    Okay, well Obama's policy also sent a message that something is wrong with all those people who think gender is a biological fact and not an illusion of our minds. Seems like a pretty big deal to mandate such a controversial view from on high.

    I consider this the proper move, though I'm reluctant to give Trump any credit for it. Literally any republican candidate would have done the same thing as the Obama policy was a clear case of government overreach. Conservatives could have achieved the same end without suffering all the horrors Trump will doubtless put us through.

    I can't decide if that trans-kid "Gavin" should get his case heard in the Supreme Court. They already redefined marriage for all of us, I wouldn't be surprised if they continued the smug slide into bizarro-world by redefining gender.

    I see another thread has duplicated this topic by simply making recommendations, e.g., "make all bathrooms neutral." The beauty of the administration's policy move is that it leaves schools the freedom to make those decisions on their own rather than force everyone to adopt a particularly cockamamie idea.

    Waste of time wild goose chase by the rabidly idiotic socially paranoid right.

    Why can't they focus on ANYTHING that is NOT related to sex?

    Seriously. Grow the (*)(*)(*)(*) up and focus on real issues.

    Geeze, how I wish I knew that were true! But Thank Goodness, we finally have a President with which it is is clearly obviously and undeniably true!

    Trump really has balls and he is afraid of brawl. We haven't had enough of that on the GOP side.

    The Mincing Left has something new to cry about. I see you're already on it.

    How about liberals stop supporting mentally disturbed people and their lawsuits to sue schools and businesses to force everyone else to accept their delusional state?

    You are acting as if this wasn't forced upon the public from the left.

    Yes. How dare we support science over liberal's religious belief that people can magically change their sex by declaration.

    this could actually save lives.

    Some fathers may not take too kindly to a man in dress following their wives or daughters into the ladies room.
    And I know some of these fathers and it would not end good.

    Actually it does. You claimed people who support this are knuckle dragging bigots. My argument against that is we support science and you support an unscientific religious belief that sex can be changed by a declaration.

    But please, explain how we are knuckle dragging bigots by supporting science? Love to hear it.

    This rule was regarding public schools. Not sure the scenario of a man whose bigotry is so great he could potentially murder someone is accurate.

    what I would really like to hear is when is the last time he ever called them knuckle dragging biggots to their faces.

    That is a disparaging untruth within your post. You are claiming I hold a potion that is wholly invented. Rest assured, your untruth is incredibly wrong on several levels.

    Perhaps you woudl be better served addressing the thread topic as opposed to making (*)(*)(*)(*) up about me and posting it.

    Hilarious! Did you just try to deride me by claiming I am effeminate?

    All Trump did was let the states decide for themselves. Is their anything wrong with that for some reason?

    not far fetched at all, if you don't know someone who would physically mess someone up bad if he saw them dressed as a woman follow their female loved ones into the ladies room then you are truly live in a very sheltered environment

    No one is talking about murder and its certainly not something I ever said so please apologize for that false accusation.

    This is about keeping mentally disturbed people from forcing their beliefs on normal people who know you cannot change your sex no matter how strongly you believe it.

    And you still haven't answered my question on how we are knuckle dragging bigots. I would hope you could at least defend your own hatred.

    How? How are you more reasonable supporting something as unscientific as this?

    Yes, the other fellow did.

    I feel no need to defend myself from false charges thrown my way in your posts. I realize the origin of such charges is a lack of facts and a need to attack based on intellectual jealousy, membership if a clique of affirmation, and hatred due to consistent forensics failure.

    You've already called anyone who doesn't believe in transsexuals knuckle dragging bigots. Can't you at least admit you labeled the opposition this?

    You do realize this is a debate forum. You picked a position and I am challenging your logic behind your label. Its not a personal attack no matter how you report it. Why does that offend you?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Not me. Thanks for admitting it.

    Ok. So you can't defend your accusation that anyone who doesn't believe in transgenders are knuckle dragging bigots. Got it.

    Incorrect. It is a discussion forum. Debate suggest some sort of formal set of rules and a judgement as to the victor.

    to be fair, their is supporting evidence for both sides of the argument. Though, somehow, I doubt you'll see the opposing sides point of view on this.

    That said, chances are very very good that you've pee'd next to a transgendered individual or had one pass you as you exited the mens room. A lot of them can pass without anyone even guessing.

    According to the left, it's just fuel to continue to call everyone a racist homophobic misogynist bigot.
