Bradley Manning: I want to live as a woman
Today News ^ | 22 Aug 13 | Scott Stump

Posted on 08/22/2013 5:40:32 AM PDT by LSUfan

Bradley Manning, the Army private sentenced to military prison for leaking classified documents, revealed he intends to live out the remainder of his life as a woman.

“I am Chelsea Manning. I am female,” the Army private wrote in a statement read on TODAY Thursday. “Given the way that I feel, and have felt since childhood, I want to begin hormone therapy as soon as possible. I hope that you will support me in this transition.”

Manning, 25, was sentenced to 35 years in prison on Wednesday after having been found guilty of 20 charges ranging from espionage to theft for leaking more than 700,000 documents to the WikiLeaks website while working in Iraq in 2010.

“I also request that, starting today, you refer to me by my new name and use the feminine pronoun (except in official mail to the confinement facility),” he continued in the statement. “I look forward to receiving letters from supporters and having the opportunity to write back.”

That we gave this perverted creature access to classified information in massive quantities is a scandal of major proportions. A guy with a bad credit rating because he went through a messy divorce would have been disqualified, but somehow this deviant passes the psych evaluation? The system is broken and getting worse. We should not be surprised that Manning released massive amounts of secret information blindly for the world to see. And if you are one of the cretins who think this demented twerp is a "patriot," please think again, because he released 750,000 pages of secret documents. He had no idea what was in them. He was just mad at fellow soldiers for being "hyper-masculine."

Does this mean he will be put in a women’s prison?

How convenient. He just wants to avoid the male prison population and move in with the chicks. He’s in for a surprise. I can see a 300 pound lesbian sitting on top of and smothering this tweety bird just for kicks.

Oh... you’ll be a “woman” all right, Bradley... the bubbas in your future home will see to that.

Either a pervert or a genius!

(How many 25 year old men, sentenced to 35 years in prison, would not want to spend the 35 years in a womens' prison?)

35 years in prison should give him an incredible opportunity.

No if he wants to live as a woman then a male prison is probably the better place to accomodate that.

Well.. y'know... that new "protected class" thing is what guides policy now. Makes me wonder how many other "bradley mannings" are waiting in the wings to wreak their own brand of homo havoc...

Manning and Snowden are Post Turtles.

'You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just wonder what kind of a dumb ass put him up there!.'

Just like their boss Obama. When is a reporter going to ask who put these losers on the post?

Will it be changing its last name as well? Can't quite put my finger on it, but, it just sounds a bit masculine.

Do you think he will last very long at Leavenworth as a man?

Fine. Toss a rusty razor blade into his cell and tell him to go to it.

Just more proof that the Military is NOT for social engineering and fags, sexually confused pustules, and woman in combat have no place in it.

Their job is difficult enough given the 7th century sand monkeys they are trying to help and being led from behind by another anti-American sand monkey.

What they don’t need are these additional social engineering distractions
