Dem bill requires TSA to develop transgender screening plan
The Washington Examiner ^ | December 2, 2016 | Pete Kasperowicz

Rep. Kathleen Rice, D-N.Y., introduced legislation this week aimed at changing airport security screening procedures for transgender people.

.
Rice and other Democrats said machines require screeners to select "male" or "female" in order to configure the scanner for each person.

"This protocol may be well-suited to screen some cisgender passengers, but they do so at the expense of singling out transgender or gender nonconforming individuals whose physical appearances may not necessarily match their biological sex," Democrats wrote. "Cisgender" is a term that refers to anyone who isn't transgender.

This catering to mentally ill people has got to stop.

Almost more of a waste of time than the vote recounts.

There are two choices, dimwit. It someone can’t decide, they can take the bus.

They could change the screen to include:

Gender:
__Male
__Female
x_Tranny Freak

Select Optional Parts:
x_Penis
__Breasts
__Vagina
x_Butt Implants

LOL

okay - we make it REAL easy, instead of male / female we relabel the buttons!

Instead of

Sex: Male / Female

we use

Penis: Yes / No

and, if we’re feeling bold, we can add “sometimes” :D

Do these people ever worry about real problems? There is something acutely mentally wrong with those who identify as democrat.

"Cisgender" is a term that refers to anyone who isn't transgender.

In other words, what we used to call *normal* ....

Thanks You, leftie weirdos, for giving us a new phrase to identify with. Not that we needed one, but it always helps to confuse the cultural lexicon some more ....

I’m sure this is a problem for 0.00000115% of the population. I’m also sure that there is absolutely no reason for any law to be passed (or regulation for that matter) which is aimed at the exception.

Those who like to play dress up can spend an extra few seconds being screened. Big whoop.

They’re just planning ahead for when Michael Obama has to fly on regular planes again.

Oh, that’s easy: don’t honor, acknowledge, or use self assigned gender ... only “boy/man” and “girl/woman” ... don’t even balk if people choose to not acknowledge “gender reassignment” ... and screw the PC crowd if the fuss.

So why not a sign “Tell us if you are trans” and if they say so then select the opposite gender. I think it just makes scanning quicker, it doesn’t impact security otherwise.
