U.S. Directs Public Schools to Allow Transgender Access to Restrooms [Obama: EVERY PUBLIC SCHOOL]
NY Times ^ | 5/13/16

Posted on 05/13/2016 2:15:05 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

The Obama administration is planning to issue a sweeping directive telling every public school district in the country to allow transgender students to use the bathrooms that match their gender identity.

A letter to school districts will go out Friday, adding to a highly charged debate over transgender rights in the middle of the administration’s legal fight with North Carolina over the issue.

I listened to a rep from National Association of Secondary School Principals on radio this morning. He was happy for the directive. He said the students don’t have a problem. It’s just parents and state houses that are making a political thing. Which is the exact thing the media, the administration and liberal have done with this practically non-existent issue. That interview ticked me off. He is a tool. Rush is correct. Liberals love to listen to the “wisdom” of youth (easily led, manipulated and controlled). The radio station said directive was from Education Dept.

If I heard correctly, the students must be allowed to use the group space if a single space with a locked door didn’t suit them. How nice!

Hmm, I wonder how the muslims in the public schools will respond?

“”Liberals love to listen to the “wisdom” of youth (easily led, manipulated and controlled).””

How about stupid and/or ignorant? They obviously never watch the “young” generation being interviewed on the street when they stumble over simple questions such as how many states are there in the U. S.?

Women in the restroom just need to laugh at how tiny the transgender’s private part is. If the transgender gets upset, he/she is a man and must go back to the men’s room.

School boards are obsolete under this edict. There is no reason to have a school board or to elect school board meetings under this edict. Local rule is obsolete ... which is what they want.

There will be some parents arrested over this.

There are schools all over the south that are 80 to 90 percent black. The few whites are poor and can’t afford the private schools. Now the girls are going to be going to the bathroom with animals. Racist? Nope. True! So, there may be killings over this.

Wonder what Odumbo will do for an Encore before he leaves office? Maybe start bombing American cities in the Red States!

Way too many Republican “leaders” have transvestite friends.

Addressing irrelevant social issues of their own creation after they have failed to improve any meaningful foreign policy/domestic policy issues is what Democrats do.

For example, they have failed black people miserably so they put Harriet Tubman's face on the $20 bill to show black people how much they've done for them. Thgeir war against the confederate flag is a similar example of how they try to obscure their utter failure to improve the lives of black people.

Similarly, they have failed American students enrolled in public schools miserably so they set about fixing the public school transgender bathroom issue that is obviously causing so many problems across the country (/sarc). These issues have the added bonus of being able to reinforce the false narrative that Republicans are racists and homophobes.

The Democrat party is the party of failure. Social issues are their way of distracting everyone from that undeniable fact.

Godless liberal policy has never contributed to building a better society and culture. The most bizarre part to witness is the complete idiocy and blindness they possess on their merry way to tearing down all that is descent in their quest for power over others.

Disbanding the Department of Education would go a long way in reversing the damage.

This is a well-coordinated additional step to normalize aberrant behavior by mentally ill individuals. Once this becomes "accepted" by the complacent citizenry, more threats will follow.

A government-led attack such as this on children would not be tolerated in a civilized society.

Correction: If you don’t send them taxpayer $$ to support their illegal agencies/edicts, you don’t have to take their sh!t.

Unfort. that would topple the existing house of cards of power and open the eyes of the People...can’t be having that now. People may start to wonder why there’s so much overlap, over-paying....and where *exactly* does that authority for XYZ come from anyway?

Yes, very good question.
They will probably be given a separate dressing room for the females.

Obama and Democrats are, so timely, creating an issue out of nothing, to distract everyone and attempt to beat up Republicans. Seems like something ridiculous pops up each election cycle and, like lemmings, Republicans go for it. Hopefully this time it is different as the whole transgender — go to whatever bathroom OR shower you want will strike a very personal chord with most parents.
