Medical Orgs Face Pressure Over Support For Transgender Ideology After Deadly Shooting

Ben Shapiro said medical orgs must reconsider their support for transgender procedures on kids.

Medical organizations that have backed irreversible transgender procedures on kids are facing pressure after a transgender-identifying man murdered two children and injured 18 others at a Catholic school in Minnesota on Wednesday.

The shooter who attacked the school was identified as “Robin” Westman, a 23-year-old man who started identifying as female as a minor. Westman, who previously went by Robert, left behind a series of writings that described his regret in identifying as transgender, exhibited a hatred of Christians and Jews, and a desire to kill young kids. He killed himself after spraying bullets into a group of students gathered for a Mass.

Portions of Westman’s journal, which were scribbled in a mix of Russian Cyrillic script and English, were translated by the New York Post and revealed his dark thoughts as he struggled with his transgender identity.

“I only keep [long hair] because it is pretty much my last shred of being trans. I am tired of being trans, I wish I never brain-washed myself,” Westman reportedly wrote.

In another section of his journal, Westman reportedly wrote, “I don’t want to dress girly all the time but I guess sometimes I really like it. I know I am not a woman but I definitely don’t feel like a man.”

Westman’s journal entries cast doubt on the assertions of many major medical organizations that have claimed that regret rates for those who attempt to change their sex are incredibly low. The shooting came as Daily Wire host Ben Shapiro released leaked footage on Tuesday and Wednesday showing American Medical Association President Bobby Mukkamala and an “expert” endorsed by the org claiming that...

Regret Data

Imagine being encouraged by your parents to change your person. What could be worse than family celebrating that the old and real you no longer exists?

Certainly a self-confidence killer.

Happened to my mom’s hairdresser and her former son. Once she referred to her son as “he” then referred to her new daughter as “she”.

Her new daughter / former son committed suicide.

The mother also did the same only weeks after.

This is all evil pseudoscience. Gender bs. Jail the doctors under Nuremberg rules. This crap is Mengelian. Maybe the Japanese Unit 731 is still in operation.

Living in Minnesota was the first mistake. Mom lived in FL so they should have moved there.

Shrinks, pediatricians: Not a lick of sense.

Throw in a willing endocrinologist and a willing surgeon, someone to fund it, and Admin who can imagine a spreadsheet or two, and you are off to the races.

Morality and sanity be damned.

Follow the money. Doctors, hospitals, all providers bill what is billable and ignore what is not billable, even wen it is relevant. (with a rare provider exception).

Medicare, Medicaid, VA define what is billable to them. Private insurance plans follow the government defined parameters. They can specifically expand coverage and will do so for a market where they can increase members without increasing claims.

None of the doctors who do these surgeries would ever remove a limb from someone suffering body integrity dysphoria; but they somehow will do this.

Their logic is very hard for a sane person to understand.

I learned that. Their data was worthless. They skated. Lots of Germans did too. The Nazi shrinks who murdered mental patients also skated. A US shrink who was supposed to determine which Nazis shrinks were murderers was actually a colleague at one time. Disgusting

Yeah.

This trans stuff is big money for big pharma and big medicine.

Lifetime commitment to expensive drugs.
Major surgeries.
Plastic surgeries.
Expensive drugs for the side effects of the trans drugs and surgeries.

I mean, it’s a BONANZA!

And now they might lose it all.

It’s a gigantic cash cow and they don’t want to lose it. They couldn’t give two flips about the harm it does.

Covid proved that.

True and I really hate it. My father was a good family doctor and I used to have a lot of respect for the medical profession. He died in ‘85 so that’s a long time ago now. He was getting sick of the way medicine was trending then.

Why can’t Congress make it illegal to do those sorts of surgeries? Let the rich weirdo’s go to Europe. We can save a lot of children this way.
