Transgender rules for homeless shelters spark firestorm

Homeless shelters have become the latest battleground in the national debate over transgender rights.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is expected in September to finalize regulations that would allow people to stay in homeless shelters based on the gender they identify with.

The proposal has set off a firestorm, pitting LGBT groups against religious organizations that operate many homeless shelters.

“Transgender women are women regardless of whether they were born male,” said David Stacy, government affairs director at the Human Rights Campaign.

“If you’re a transgender woman and you walk into a homeless shelter and they treat you like a man, it’s traumatizing,” he added. “These people are already vulnerable, they’re homeless, they don’t have a job. To face discrimination the entire time they’re there is a real problem.”

Religious organizations see things differently.

Women see things differently, too.

Women will now be raped at women’s shelters


Transgendered Man Attacks Multiple Victims in Women’s Facilities!

A biological man, Christopher Hambrook, claimed to be ‘transgender’ in order to prey on women at two Toronto shelters. He was recently jailed “indefinitely” after a judge declared him to be a “dangerous offender.”

This is what your government involves itself in now.

The progressive nanny-state deserves to go bankrupt.

just wait until this starts in jails and prisons....

I can already see the hard core gang banger identifying as a woman to go into the female side

mass rapes, and once one inmate figures out they can do this, EVERY inmate will do it.

then lawsuits to follow for everyone being in the SHU or isolation

a breakdown of the penal system, but that was the intent wasn’t it?

So a male rapist can then claim he is a woman and be put into a women;s prison and the left thinks they have no mental issues at all. They are insane.

They never had any intention of leaving us alone, “marriage ‘equality’” notwithstanding.

and what about the women who are traumatized because a man is allowed to take his clothes off and enter the same shower rooms and look at their naked FEMALE bodies ???

I rest my case...

And the traumatized women in the women’s shelter are terrified the mentally ill man in the dress is really a rapist, or a voyeur or maybe even their partner dressing/identifying as a woman to access them.

Homeless women are already suffering rape rates that ARE in the 1/4 statistical incidence level.
That’s why women’s shelters are separate from general homeless shelters with mostly men.

David, why are you such a science denier? The biology is SETTLED. There is no such thing as transgender "women" who were born male. They are still male no matter how they want to dress, nor no matter how they might mutilate themselves. DNA/Chromosomes don't lie. Mentally confused and delusional activists do lie.

I’m pretty sure that the required cavity search would clearly reveal that only a single orifice is present.

“Transgender women are women regardless of whether they were born male,”

The inmates are running the asylum. And, as a ACTUAL woman, born that way, a man is NOT a woman. The fact that we now have to say this tells us where our culture is at the moment. Sewer.

Sometimes I feel as if I am channeling Charlton Heston in Planet of the Apes: "It's a madhouse --- a madhouse!"
