former Bradley Manning's decision to suppress her identity until after her trial shames society and the US justice system.
It's official. Bradley Manning is a woman and will be known, from now on, as Chelsea Manning. Turns out Manning can keep a secret. So why did she feel it was so important to hide her true identity? You might regard her as a traitor. Perhaps she's your hero. Regardless of how you view her, though, she deserved a fair trial. Today's statement raises the question: why did she feel the need to suppress her transgender status until the trial was over? What exactly was she on trial for? Leaking information or being a man?
Manning knew, and was advised, to downplay her true identity. We know that people are more likely to be convicted in the US if they have black skin and also that they are likely to face harsher sentences. The same, it seems, is true of transgender people...

His penis?
The world has gone insane in a very big way.
Um, he only started hiding his true identity after the trial.
All leftist are insane
Isn’t it too late to try to try for a Section 8 now that the trial is over.
She? Ugh
Instant ‘self-identity’ crap again - it’s maddening.
Around here we call them ‘Shims’
She-Him morphed to make “Shim’
It’s grammatically incorrect but cooler sounding than He-Shes
;)
Here they are known as Shims or Tahitians. Not sure where the Tahitian part came from, I guess that’s what transvestite exotic dancers were called.
Most of the commenters at The Guardian web site are as stupid as the writer. As long as Manning had a dick he’s a man, no matter what he wants to be called. You’re a man, Bradley...at least physically.
“If we say something is true that you think is a deliberate lie, you are wrong and we are right because shut up.”
Not the world but the “universe of the mass media,” that are comprised of over 50% of homosexuals.
Fixed it.
Will a test be used to determine if he/she will be sent to a male or female prison?
“She” could probably have a great career if sentenced to a “male” prison.
Are tax payers going to get the bill for his shots and whatever else he has to do medically to pretend he’s a girl?
Are polar bears white?
"Ashley, Ashley..."
Just shoot him and put an end to this nonsense. He may well have endangered our servicemen by his traitorous release of classified information.
I’ll bet by 2017 he’ll have a better job and lifestyle than you or I have.
The pretend-to-be-gender-confused strategy is old and tends to fail, whether in fiction or in real life. This could get rather uncomfortable for him if the little sissy goes to a men's prison after announcing that he thinks of himself as a woman.
Hey Paris....it’s a HE, NOT a SHE....quit referring to him as her!! IDIOCY and PERVSRSION gone wild.
