So we've gotten to the point where schools want students to pepper spray trans students. What the actual fuck, this is getting supremely ridiculous. Image

Much like how internet doxxing of abortion providers don't say they want them killed.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.

That seems very unlikely. The fear that trans persons are somehow gonna start attacking cisgendered persons in bathrooms is pretty baseless.

It's a convenient cover story for beating trans students. "I WAS BEING ATTACKED... yeah, that's the ticket..."

Isn't that unfounded assault? That should be a serious No No on the wielder of pepper spray. I can't believe that America has sank this low into the shithole.

Basically anyone who wants to beat a trans student can do it, then claim they were assaulted first.

There shouldnt be encouragement of this. This is literally a pro-bullying policy. Educators and officials have a moral and occupational obligation to take the opposite stance. Any students who, erm, "defend" their classmates against that kind of shit, should it happen, should be given a fucking medal.

I support the rights of all people to live in society. I do think that religious freedom is also very important. I would not discriminate upon LGBT people, but I think that those who would not want to serve them unfortunately should have that right. I think that Scriptural evidence indicates that God loves all people unconditionally and we should do the same. If that answers your question.


If you're turning away people simply for being LGBT, that's discrimination, outright.

The right of business owners to refuse service exists to protect their business from people who are outright troublemakers. People who have been known to steal, people who abuse the employees or the courtesy of the business, people who are generally obnoxious, and so on, and that's if they're caught.

I hear cisgender folk are fond of pooping and peeing in grocery store aisles, and nobody turns them away for their gender.

Clearly the answer is to ban public restrooms. *Nods*


Allowing students to assault transgender/transsexual students is quite sickening, because the odds of a tg person actually assaulting another student are so low it's not even funny.

Sadly, that's rarely a valid tactic.

If there's one thing the Christian right-wing has going for them, it's numbers.

They're a self-sustaining, purposely insulated society with it's own internal economy.

Really, a lot of the major religions have these internal structures.

But whereas, say, Jews use it to protect their people from exploitation by the ruling majority, the Christian right-wing uses it to try to restore Christianity's status within the country, dominating all facets of America, from the government, to what we teach in classrooms, to music.

Frankly, no different from, say, the Wahhabi cult in the Middle East.

Especially when said students haven't done anything to merit this.

This is a school promoting crime.

"Yeah, it's totally OK to assault somebody when they haven't done anything to you. They were asking for it."

The only time violence is ever justified is in self-defense.

What are the students defending themselves against, other than suspected transgender students defending themselves from sanctioned assault?

Even if transgender students are committing some crime against God, there's a reason why in America you're innocent until proven guilty.
