Transgender reporter to Ben Shapiro: You keep calling me “sir,” you’ll go home in an ambulance
Hotair ^ | 07/17/2015 | AllahPundit

Via Breitbart, the key bit comes at 5:30. Shapiro’s point is that Zoey Tur, formerly Bob Tur, is male genetically and therefore a man in fact, however he/she may identify. Tur’s reply is to grab him by the neck and threaten to knock him into the middle of next week, which is … about as cartoonishly masculine a response to an insult as I can imagine. All that’s missing is a belch for emphasis. Now we can look forward to a day or two of SJWs noting that the boorish impulse to beat someone into tar because you don’t like his attitude knows no gender, and actually represents a bold, exciting new frontier in femininity. If the man of the future is a woman, I suppose the woman of the future should be a man.

By the way, you’ll be relieved to know that after criticizing ESPN for giving Caitlyn Jenner an award for courage, director Peter Berg has seen the light and reaffirmed his “utmost respect” for the former Olympian. I wonder who threatened to kick his ass.

Update: I should have guessed.

@JTWelch92 being called Sir and mentally ill is violence.

See, Shapiro started it. His “violent” words — the word “sir” — evoked a similarly violent response. This is the same logic used on campus lately to harass visiting speakers for their thoughtcrimes. Free speech is one thing but rhetorical “violence,” well, no civilized culture should stand for that.

Ma’am could be seen as insulting too, depending on intonation.

Wow. I thought Zoe(y) was the daughter...not the father/thingy. The dude has got some “issues.”

Considering the fact that we’re now calling cross dressers transgender, I would call that guy whatever the hell I want.

The ever present mental illness regarding these people shows itself again. Wonder how many times that one tried to kill themselves?

Katy Tur is the daughter. And she is NOT ALL RIGHT with her father’s decision.

Recently, I took my car in for maintenance. While sitting in the waiting room two very “butch” women started a commotion at the service desk. One shouted at the clerk “I have T******, I am not a “sir!”

I’ve seen the two around and they act like a “couple.” The “woman” in question goes out of her way to dress and act masculine.

If we’re expected to adjust our behavior to avoid “offending,” they ought to wear a tag to notify us of what they want to be called at the moment.

That would be: (from a legal standpoint)
Assault & battery.
Communicating a threat of violence.
Initimidation.

Just to name a few. Ben needs to go after this ‘thing’ in the same manner a liberal would go after a conservative who did the same thing.

Shapiro made all those idiots look stupid. He stayed completely calm throughout the entire discussion - even though they were continually goading him.

But he's only one "d" short of what he really is.

That was very feminine of “Zoey”.
