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.”

To be consistent shouldn’t he change his name to Chelsea Womanning?

Nope.

He/she must only serve one-third befor being "eligible" for probation!

He/she claims to desire to "finish his education, etc......" all on our tax dollars!

What happened to the 99 yrs., the 55 hrs?

I guess the female judge deemed Bradley "worthy of a lesser sentence."

What an outrage - America's gone in the toilet, thanks to feminists, perverts and liberals!

Seems to me the gay life style makes one a security risk. To admit the obvious is not politically correct so of course the govermment ..... Same thing is suspecting every 89 year old in an airport in a wheelchair as being a terrorist..

If you can have "gender identity", then why not "race identity"? I have been thinking about trying this myself.

To answer your question with a snark question...
He’ll be in Ft. Leavenworth, who do you think will pay for it? Manning?

proof that all faggots are a security risk.

It truly does appear that when destruction comes to great powers, it comes as sexual corruption, and it comes from within. Greece, Rome, the dynasties of ancient China, and now the USA. When homosexual behavior is accepted at the highest levels, the end is near.

Bradley Manning.... a Washington Post editorial asked why an apparently unstable Army private had been able to access and transfer sensitive material in the first place.

Yes, that does seem strange doesn’t it?

Manning and Snowden are Post Turtles.

Apples and oranges.

Manning was betraying his country because of some homosexual delusion.

Snowden was defending the Constitution in the only way open to him. When the government, which is supposed to be following and defending the Constitution is betraying it, then where do you go? Snowden did what he had to do. He's a hero in my eyes.
