"Released later in the day"?.....if that had been a straight, white male, who was not HIV positive, he would have still been in jail.....IMHO
thou shalt not bear falsies against thy neighbor.
"A transsexual woman..."
Isn't that a bit ambiguous?
Tranie problems? I guess they should have gone to AAMCO instead of the hospital.
well, the important thing is, if he/she had an accidental death only policy, it probably wouldn't be paid because the fracas wasn't the proximate cause of death...
Isn't it interesting that the biggest news of this incident is that it involved a transexual. Political correctness has a way of dehumanizing and stereotyping everyone into its own discrete categories. Everyone is identified by a prefix that determines their moral worth, like black, hispanic, gay, HIV positive, conservative, Christian, Republican, white, etc. This prefix always telegraphs the slant the story will take or at least the emotions the story is intended to stir. To the left, you're not a person; you're a label, and that's the only value a life represents.
That's about as severe an assault on a transexual's persona as you can make, roughly the equivalent of force-feeding pork to a devout Jew; no wonder she became violent. The cops should have known better.
"told them she was HIV-positive and appeared to be cooperating, Sgt. Paul Robbins said."
Did Robbins call him a she? Did Empson call him a she.
The reporter would have you think so by putting she and "xxx said" in the same sentence.
That always amuses me. "Lived as" a woman? You either are, or aren't. I mean if a guy wants to dress like RuPaul that's OK by me, but he's still a "he" as far as I am concerned.
If it's a weiner you see, then a man you be.
At this point, I would say "Sorry to bother you" and quietly close the door. Guess I wouldn't make it as a paramedic.
The cops should have known better and made better accomodations for the tranny? A mental illness, a pair of plastic boobs and a dress does not a woman make. The police--and by extension the government--should never be required to bow down to such PC delusions.
Hmmm...I was trying to think of a new tagline!
"As a man believes in his heart, so is he." Or she, depending on what it is he believes. ;^)
"BALLS!!!" said the queen "...if I had 'em I'd be King"
If that's so, then is my husband truly the "Supreme Ruler of the Universe" as he has been calling himself these many years? I might owe him an apology. :-P
It's the new "catch and release" program.
Works only for the downtrodden, faggots, and other leftist supported groups.
