Caitlyn Jenner Delivers Powerful Speech at ESPY Awards
New York Post ^ | July 15, 2015 | Maggie Coughlan

Caitlyn Jenner called for acceptance on Wednesday night as she delivered a powerful speech at the ESPY Awards.

Jenner’s segment began with a montage narrated by “Mad Men” star Jon Hamm. “People were looking for a hero to believe in and there he was,” Hamm said as images of Jenner participating in the Olympic games played. “Bruce Jenner made patriotism cool again.”

As the montage wrapped, the camera panned to a teary eyed Jenner in the audience.

No one by that name spoke. I’ve heard of a BRUCE Jenner, though.

He used to be a great athlete. Unlike whatever it was that showed up to claim some BS-PN “award”

True to an extent but this year it was actually broadcast on the ABC Television Network and it’s affiliates. Over the air via FCC licensing.

Without their cable profits, ESPN would not be in existence, much less be holding gay propaganda seminars. So whether the seminar runs on cable or ABC wouldn’t matter. It wouldn’t be there to run at all.

Yes, the possibility is greater for Bruce Jenner because he's deliberately opened himself to public scrutiny by flaunting this so called 'transition' as an exhibitionist would, which I do believe is also a condition he suffers with.

Much of his life he has isolated himself which isn't unusual for those in the limelight as he was. ..it goes with stardom, especially for those who have personalities which value their privacy.... But 'at the same time', and for Jenner, there's an exhibitionist twerk they also contend with and need the public "attention"....which often goes along with those having sexual deviant issues.

... So there's more than just a few issues Jenner hasn't worked through. Therefore going public as he has is not going to bring the results he's imagined might be. He says he can take it...but clearly contradicts himself often..... If you listen to him you see he's not adjusting to what he thinks he is. ...He KNOWS he's not a woman, neither inside nor out, regardless of the garb he's using to play the role or what he says.....which cannot change the reality he is a man with mental issues of how he 'thinks' and what he desires.

I had the occasion to be waited on by a male body builder who has Jenner's issues. Let me tell you there's a reason they are seen as 'Freaks"...it was one of the most bizarre and freakish encounters I've had...couldn't wait to get out of the store! My discomfort level was off the scale as the sight went against everything "natural" including his behavior which no woman would have exhibited.

...”Touting mental illness”...

Well yes... because that is what is being exhibited in full view of the audience...but “expecting” people to accept this as normal behavior. It’s clearly not.

It's understood the Jenner's crew contacted ESPN and asked for this award so that it could be part of this entire series they've concocted....so it is indeed just another reality freak "show".

“He’s still intact, right?”

We are reduced to referring to humans like we do unneutered male animals. We just keep sinking further and further and further....

Anarchy. I think we saw the seeds of it last year and this year.

Satan is working overtime through his puppets.
