I don’t care what some demented group of legislators have to say. They could declare the guy was a mongoose, but it doesn’t make him one. Moreover, it is likely that no state constitution actually gives the power to legislators to declare men are women or women are men. Of course, the judges and legislatures are now just making it up as they go along (the Goodrich case is an example), so I suppose that it doesn’t matter what attempts were made in the past to limit government power. What is concerns me most, however, is the legal positivism implicit in your comment.
If some guy goes around playing make-believe he is going to find that life becomes inconvenient and even dangerous.
One stomp to the head can be deadly, to a person already on the ground.
The attackers were viscious. They were outside the bathroom. The attackers were not in any danger. The attackers came back and continued the attack and were clearly overpowering the victim.
And how do you know all of this? In particular how do you know the guy was alone in what you imply was a unisex bathroom? I’ve been in a lot of McDs, and they have men’s rooms and women’s rooms, and the men’s rooms, at least, are not single occupant. Where you there?
Not anywhere I've ever been. They're all multiple stalls, often without a locking outer door. I live in the west, they may be different in the east.
Sad thinking as saddling them with some made up name doesn’t improve their prospects. They need intact families with fathers and a healthy respect for getting an education.
I've always felt the funniest take on that statement was one that went ...
... just because the cat had kittens in the oven, that doesn't make them biscuits.
Dilbert San Diego,
I do not know if you are a male, female or typing puppy dog or if you are in San Diego.
Matters not. Where ever you are a fag or “transgendered freak” has LOOKED at you at some time or another.
Don’t give you the right to beat them near to death.
And I am not a wierdo supporter in any way, just a human.
LOL. The most oppressed of all minorities must be the "Black Muslim Lesbian Transgendered Disabled AIDS victims".
I don't see myself ever going to Maryland .
Feral animal...needs to be taken to the Vet and put down.
Guilty as sin!
“One stomp to the head can be deadly, to a person already on the ground.”
I agree! “Stompin’” should at least be “Assault with a deadly weapon.”
Video like this always makes it harder for the left to squelch a story, and when it started it looked like another typical black on white crime.
Information on the bathrooms comes from the video interviews of the victim and the elderly white woman that was struck. They are probably still up on the net someplace.
There have been several freepers on these threads from the area where this happened, and one of them beat the MSM to the news of the victim's transsexual status (although they didn't know the victim was post operation). Young Polis also has a prior arrest for prostitution which is pretty typical for a Tranny - the surgery is very expensive and even the ones who go on to live as lesbians often pay for the surgery by hooking.
If you want further confirmation of bathroom architecture have one of the locals go look - this it the camera phone and internet age.
Your explanation just covered volumes and volumes of studies. It is simply that simple. Start with an intact family and begin working from there.
So when is the FBI getting involved in the hate crime investigation?
“The more I see of this case the more I start to think that men who go into women’s bathrooms ought to be soundly thrashed. I don’t care if this guy happened to be feeling “pretty” that day, or whether he likes to play dress-up, or whether he thinks he’s Julie Andrews. Women shouldn’t have to deal with men in their bathrooms.”
HMMMM, a few days ago an extremely similar post was made by Coon2000. Now achilles2000.
Very interesting.
At any rate, it’s about the ultimate on the scale of judgmental intolerance. Several men have posted about stumbling by accident into the ladies bathroom and I cannot imagine any circumstances under which it would be proper to beat them for their transgression.
You seem to have issues.
Who knows, they might not have known u til they beat her him down. I agree. Hate crime either way.
You can be concerned about whatever you choose. My eyes were opened when I realized the reality of the situation. while I do not approve of men using women’s rooms or even of sex change operations...I now understand that the person seeking the operation has no choice in the matter. If that individual wants to qualify for the operation, that individual is REQUIRED to change his name and use the lady’s room for at least one year BEFORE getting the operation.
You can blame whoever you choose. But you can’t logically blame the individual that uses the lady’s room as he is told to do so.
That is correct. Another question comes to mind. If the defendant knew the victim was a transgender, why was she upset that he-she looked at her boyfriend? This goes to motivation. My bet is that she didn't know she was assaulting a transgender. Either way this case will be interesting to follow and to observe how the liberal media spins this.
Shame on you for calling her a "freak of nature". Get your act together, open your mind and quit being so hateful and judgmental. She wasn't "posing as a woman". She is transgender. Do me a favor: go get an education about this issue then come back and post comments like a civilized, educated person. thanks.
Let's get the "civilized" part out of the way : NO ONE should ever get a beating for being transgendered or for any other reason short of self-defence.
I am both hateful* and judgemental. I see "posing as a woman" and transgendered as synonyms; a distinction without a difference.
The poster of the quote above believes that society and other individuals don't have the absolute right to hold ethical and moral standards.
He is an idiot, and no amount of "education" can fix stupid.
Another sad sack with such an open mind that his brain fell out. The only favor I can do for him is to simply ignore him.
*Unconscious touchy-feelie liberal definition of "hateful:" You have standards higher than mine.
I can live with the label.
