Bill pending in CA would require schools to let boys play on girls’ teams, share ‘facilities’
California Catholic Daily ^ | January 12, 2012

News from the Pacific Justice Institute

Less than a week after California’s gay history mandate went into effect, a new pro-LGBT bill introduced last week promises to stir even more controversy.

AB 266, sponsored by Assemblyman and comedian Tom Ammiano (D-San Francisco), would require schools to allow students to participate on sports teams according to their “gender identity,” not their biological sex.

This is no joke. That means that a boy who claims that he identifies as female would have the right to try out for the girls’ basketball team, potentially taking away an opportunity from a girl who might otherwise make the team.

“This bill will potentially turn long established federal law that provides equal opportunities for boys and girls to participate in school athletics on its head,” said chief counsel Kevin Snider.

But that’s not all. The bill also mandates access to opposite-sex “facilities,” apparently including locker rooms.

According to its text, “This bill would require that a pupil be permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs, activities, and facilities, including athletic teams and competitions, consistent with his or her gender identity, irrespective of the gender listed on the pupil’s records.”

Critics say the implications of the bill are staggering. One such critic is Brad Dacus, president of Pacific Justice Institute, which will be opposing the bill.

“Those afflicted with Gender Identity Disorder need professional counseling and our compassion, not more mandates that do not serve the best interests of our children,” he said.

They let girls play on boys’ teams, I see this as fair play. We’ll see how long these leftist scum support it when little girls start getting injured.

Girls, sign up for the boys team and demand equal representation and play time.
Referees, disqualify any girl's teams with boys in them.
Parents, stand by your kids when they walk out of the locker room and the games.

Dang, afterschool sex with hot teachers and free passes to the girls’ locker room. It’s like they read my mind at 15. Are they that desperate to keep boys from cutting school?

The lawsuits resulting from this piece of stupidity would bankrupt every school district in California and might well get some young gay blades shot dead for messing with the girls’ restroom.

When my son was a high school wrestler, getting a female opponent was the worst possible scenario. If you won.. big deal you beat a girl.. if you lost.. heaven help you!

Don't hold your breath. Before that happens, the state will ban sports from schools, as they have done in parts of Canada, for fear children might get injured. The slope is very slippery ...

just said on another thread I was reading before this one.

The north east and the west coast are like another country compared to us down here in the south and the midwest and to be honest I would not be bothered if the west coast and the north east just went on their merry way and let us live as we have for hundreds of years.

I guarantee that in 20 years their new liberal utopia country would be all messed up and those liberals who set their new country up would be wanting to be moving back down here again.

Of course, public school (especially in Califaggornia) is child abuse, and any DemoRat is a pedophile pervert.

That being said, I personally, am in danger of laughing myself to death as I watch ringside, the (un) natural progression of faggot political correctness.

I saw this coming years ago.

San Francisco is a dream come true for for any pedophile pervert smart enough to locate here.

Most FReepers will not be surprised to learn that SF has lost more than 50% of it's childrens' population in recent years. Normal families are moving out as fast as they can, and city officials claim to be stumped as to why. LOL!

Now, male lesbians everywhere will be demanding access to the girls’ locker room.

It’s only fair.

Haha, we had a girl on the wrestling team when I was a freshmen, she was a junior. I had to wrestle her a few times, she didn’t last the season. No girls on the wrestling team in college, go figure ; )

I don't recommend pulling the thread, the proposed legislation is factual in existance.

Discussion would be improper only if the bill was entirely fictitious and nonexistent.

It will be back, and the citizenry should be informed so as to give it the welcome and attention it deserves.

One does not beget children by committing buggery.
