I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

I am sure I am going to get castigated for this post but it needs to be said.

First off let's talk ISIS did you know four gays were thrown off the building on the day gay marriage was passed in the USA. See link to video of you want to read or see for yourself.

Whether the Orlando shooting was an act carried out by Isis or merely inspired by Isis we will never know. But it should not be surprising that anyone to do with Isis would carry out such a treacherous act.

Ok now I warned you above this was going to be controversial.

What is surprising to me is that what happened in Orlando has not been done before now. And not by a member of Isis but from someone fed up with having trans lifestyle shoved down our proverbial throat.

I am not a parent but if I had a teenage girl who was forced to shower with a teen boy who was self identifying himself as a girl. I would go ape sh*t and I'm not a violent guy.

Enough is enough 99.9% of Americans are not transgender. When does it come a point where a minute minority does not dictate rules to the massive majority. Maybe this will be a wake up call to our government. I am wiser than that though. We are no longer a United States of America.

Long live the Divided States of America or the Offended States of America those are more apropo to what this country has become.

Can't wait to read the scathing remarks or will this get censored just like it would on Facebook. Seriously what happened to freedom of speech. It is important that I be able to state my opinion anywhere and everywhere in America.

@joanie thanks for putting out an actual well thought out reply. I am deeply sorry you were molested. The number of peoplenthisnhappens to is appealing. My mother was gang raped by my fathers "friends" while he was passed out drunk in the other room. She was also molested by her older brother. My sister was raped by a boy her age when she was 14 and my niece was raped when she was 16 by her father in law. So again I am deeply sorry you experienced such horrible thing.

Look if this were truly about protection of trans then there would just be a simple mandate to put it in a third bathroom and possibly a fourth bathroom in all public schools. Our federal government spend more money than it has what's a few 100 million more.

This is not what it's about though. It's about continuing to cause a division in this country. You may have heard the saying. United we stand divided we fall.

If it's over .1% it certainly is not by much. Still the majority of people in this country are baby boomers, and tg was not much of a thing in there generation. I just checked my facts this is a true statement.

So here is what a quick search showed for the population of tg in America to be.

One effort to quantify the population gave a "rough estimate" that 0.3 percent of adults in the US (1-in-300) are transgender, overlapping to an unknown degree with the estimated 3.5 percent of US adults (1-in-30) who identify as LGB.
Sources from
^ The Search for the Best Estimate of the Transgender Population (NY Times)
^ Williams Institute UCLA study, see bar graph, Fig5 on p6 (2011) "Understanding the size of the LGBT population is a critical first step to informing a host of public policy and research topics."

So ok it's a little more than .1% according to this source.

Call it .5% it's still such a minute number. Do the deserve to be protected against hate crime and hate crime of course they do.

Do they deserve to have there own bathroom. I think it's a stretch. Do they deserve to be able to shower with people of the opposite sex in which the were born. Absolutely not.

Finally to put to rest that a "boy" will not be showering with my daughter. Just google "girls forced to shower with boys"

It is more prevalent than you think.

I did the search and this is the link of what I found as first result.

As a closing note. The reason I am so passionate about this is simple.

The issue I have with it is for a very small minority of people there is a movement to give them the right to infringe on a majority of people's rights. If a girl is forced to shower with a boy who identifies himself as a girl. Then her right to a pursuit of happiness, and true freedom is being taken away from her. Give the trans movement there rights just do it in a way that does not infringe on anybody else's right.

Thanks again for your well worded post and keeping everything above the belt.
