DALLAS (AP) -- A detention facility for immigrants set to open later this year in Texas will include a special unit for transgender people, the second of its kind in the federal system.

The privately-run facility under construction in Alvarado, Texas, southwest of Dallas, will include 36 beds for transgender detainees, according to a statement Monday from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The facility is expected to open in November.

Advocates say transgender immigrants often face particular challenges, including a higher risk of sexual assault, an inability to get hormone replacement treatments, and dealing with guards unfamiliar with gender identity issues.

I'm sure "Gender Identity Issues" will be a new elementary school course soon.

A detention facility. 36 beds...18 for men who think they’re women and 18 for women who think they’re men. They can swap beds every ten minutes and no one will know the difference. This is insanity!

Why bother? It’s not like ICE ever detains any illegals.

Of course, the Pansy in Chief would put it in Texas.

Emasculated America in its end days. Feminism is a gift that keeps on giving. I saw a woman talking about the horrors over at the Veterans Administration today and she made sure to crack a smile in-between sentences. WTF!!!

WE NEED TO GET PISSED OFF AND ANGRY and not worry about 'looking too upset' when we speak. This female-mindset SENSITIVITY BULLCR*P needs to stop and Texas needs to go back to its 'NO BS' days.

Wait a second, we have to let them use any bathroom that they feel like but they can’t use just any jail cell? They have to get their own special cells? Why all this pandering to less than .02% of the population at everyone else’s expense?

The only requirement to enter the “women’s” unit is that you go under the rusty knife.

Why?

Because we've become Sodom and Gomorrah 2.0.

Got fire insurance?

“a special unit for transgender people”

That used to be called a mental institution. That’s where people with mental health issues are housed.
