Judge Blocks Biden Rule on Sports [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 24 July 2022 | John Semmens

U.S. District Judge Charles Atchley Jr. blocked the Biden administration's rules forcing schools "to accept biological males who declare themselves transgender into female sports competitions." The Judge agreed with 20 state attorneys general plaintiffs that the Biden edict infringes on states' rights and was improperly imposed.

Judge Atchley observed that "there is no power delegated to the President to require schools to abide by his preferences regarding so-called transgender persons. The rules regarding school athletics emanate from a congressional statute. This statute specifies that the executive branch must follow the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), which governs the process by which federal agencies develop and issue regulations. Under the APA, proposed rules must be promulgated pursuant to notice-and-comment rule-making."

Atchley explicitly rejected the Administration's argument that "strictly following the APA would be too time-consuming and unnecessarily delay the desired extension of benefits to the protect class of transgenders," by reminding them that "following the law is not optional. No matter how urgently the Administration desires to implement regulations it believes are warranted, they must still follow the procedures prescribed by law. To do otherwise would permit a lawless tyranny to overthrow representative government."

Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona expressed disappointment with Atchley's decision and contended that "following it would do irreparable harm to transgenders. Our only recourse may be for the President to declare an emergency like he did with the covid pandemic. This would enable him to simply mandate the rules he wants to see put in place and enforce it by withholding federal funds from any school that does not allow men who identify as women to compete in women's sports."

Folks, help me out here.

There are civil rights act discrimination which is pretty broad.

Then there are employment discrimination rules, which is where all the perversion began to be worshiped.

So if I don’t have an employment situation, I am back to civil rights rules?

But of course the states set up a bunch of additional rules also..................

A lot of “blending” of perversion rules, but if we know the details, ways out also?

With the Biden administration trying to force the competition between men and women in the same sport, while trying to utilize title IX, is a blatant inaccuracy. And in time, I hope people understand the problem.

Title IX is the most commonly used name for the federal civil rights law in the United States of America that was passed as part (Title IX) of the Education Amendments of 1972. It prohibits sex-based discrimination in any school or any other education program that receives funding from the federal government.

“There are civil rights act discrimination which is pretty broad.”

Through time, much broader than was intended. And as the concessions to different groups are being administered, it becomes an enemy to itself. When the rule fell into sports, and moving from prohibiting sex-based discrimination in any school or any other education program that receives funding from the federal government to trying to create a false position of financial protection based upon gender only for program existence.

So if it is being used to protect women’s programs, how can men be allowed to compete in women’s only programs based upon funding. Oops! So for that later addition of interpretation, allowing men and women competing together does not need title IX as there is no gender protection to be needed.

But that’s where the problems start. It’s going to get worse in time. As the reality of same sex sports starts to dissipate with the inclusion of all sports to all genders, what is the government funding going to be used for if it is earmarked for gender responsibility that no longer exists? Probably still be going to some little country for their military arms they won’t or can’t pay for.

That is my point.

There is constitutional points of discrimination and then are are the rest.

employment
education,
others?

We need to force this back to the highest authority.

But no such distinction is necessary. As I have pointed out in my many articles on discrimination:

Discrimination is neither a dirty word nor an evil deed.

There is no right to service.

Discriminating against someone is not aggressing against him.

To outlaw discrimination is to outlaw freedom of thought and freedom of association.

A free society is not free of discrimination, but a free society is free of discrimination laws.

A free society must include the freedom to discriminate against any individual or group, on any basis, for any reason.

“We need to force this back to the highest authority.”

Handing it to them is what got us into the title IX manure to begin with. Then allowing them to stretch it into other areas of education made it worse. It’s just a lie predicted on other than actuality.
