The transgender conquest of women’s sports continued over the weekend as a New Zealand weightlifter took home multiple gold medals at the 2019 Pacific Games in Samoa.

Laurel Hubbard won two gold medals and a silver in the three heavyweight categories, for women weighing more than 87 kilograms, or 192 pounds, finishing first in the snatch-lift and combined categories and second in the clean-and-jerk.

I guess this is what you have to do when you can’t compete with men.

I’m waiting for the first guys who just can’t quite make in the NBA to transgender into the WNBA.

It just might make it a "bit" exciting.

They just don’t vote for Democrats and enforce liberalism, they defend them and criticize those who don’t. Remember what happened to Penn State’s Rene Portland?

And how are they going to ‘step up’ - and with what Army?

The first line of defense is Parents. They have power - over chlldren and over schools; and they have legal recourse. They also have the right - and ability, if they’ll work for it - to take their kids OUT of public schools.

It’s a lot easier to just pull out your gun - or threaten to - and get yourself into serious trouble, than it is to actually go to legal war over this stuff.

There are equalizing forces in Nature; and similar forces translate to human nature. Read history.

Wasn’t there something in the news recently from the Women’s wrestling news, that a man pretending to be female (couldn’t cut it in the men’s wrestling world) pinned his opponent to the mat and cracked her skull in the process? The (real) woman wrestler commented later something about never before being so hopelessly overpowered in her life.

I don’t pay enough attention to sports to get the facts straight.

The assumption that the rule of law stays intact and functional in the face of all that’s being done to destroy that same rule may well be misplaced.

And the assumption that men and women, parents, are going to continue to just go along to get along with courts that forbid them to interfere with the surgical and hormonal mutilation of their children might also be misplaced.

the court thing? It’s happened already.

With patience, we could transition to a more sane course without violence

I suspect we are seeing the ‘patience’ now, hoping for “a more sane course without violence”, but that patience is wearing thin. My gut feeling is that when the patience is exhausted, the lash back will not be pretty, nor will it take “a more sane course without violence”.

The ‘court thing’ has to KEEP happening - if we are going to be a nation ruled by law and not by men.

I know it’s a lot harder and takes longer; but people ARE winning lawsuits. Maybe we have to keep bringing and winning them for a long time - but that seems more in line with our founding ideals than just going all ‘apeshit’ does.

(Pardon my ‘french’.)

I think you meant ‘backlash’.

(Another interesting term is ‘blowback’ - something the liberals are beginning to experience.)

How odd that lunatics are promoted and praised for their lunacy. ALL LIBs are lunatics. I laugh at their idiocy and lunacy...a dangerous combination.

Not all people who identify as ‘liberal’ or ‘Democrat’ are lunatics.

A lot of them aren’t very politically aware, and just go with the party that their fathers, and fathers before, did - back when there was some integrity to the Democrat party.

(The other day, I heard a woman who claims to be very ‘pro’ LBGT-XYZ say that she had a real problem with underage children being encouraged toward fluent sexual identity/sex change, etc.)

Have patience! The people trying to promote this stuff are overplaying their hands, and that fact isn’t lost on the majority.

And what might be even more exciting would be seeing a big, hunky transie replace Megan Rapinoe and her like minded teammates on the next ‘Women’s’ World Cup team.
