The Texas Transgender 'Bathroom Bill': A Last Chance for Sanity
American Thinker.com ^ | June 3, 2017 | Avrohom Gordimer

On May 22, the Texas House of Representatives approved an amendment to a school hazard preparedness bill, which would require schoolchildren to use restrooms, locker rooms, and changing facilities that correspond to their biological gender. Once this bill, or a similar version of it, likely clears the Texas State Senate, it is expected to be signed into law by Governor Greg Abbott.

As was to be expected, this “bathroom bill” has liberals up in arms. Representative Senfronia Thompson (D) assailed the bill as bigoted:

“I happened to be a part of this society during a period of time in this state and in this country when we had ‘separate but equal’ and I remember those days. You remember? Bathrooms: white, colored. Bathrooms divided us then and it divides us now and America has long recognized that separate but equal is not equal at all.”

And one school parent, whose son declared himself a female before entering first grade (!) (please also see here), expressed great fear for her child’s safety, now that the child may no longer be able to use the girls’ room:

“The second that gavel dropped, I just burst into tears. I don’t know how I’m going explain to her that people in Austin, our legislators, people who are in charge of keeping us safe, have intentionally put her and her friends in danger now.”

The fact that millions of girls across the state of Texas are presently unsafe due to biological males using girls’ restrooms, locker rooms, and changing facilities somehow did not seem to cross this parent’s mind. And so is it with all of these cases, in which the safety of the majority is disregarded in order to serve the agenda of the few.

Promoting homosexuality and transgenderism to young children (irrationality/perversion/destruction of Natural Law (truth)) is an attempt to destroy the Christian worldview (ban Christianity) from the public schools and public square to force the Marxist “utopia” (Satanism) where all children are raised to be insane—mentally ill and unable to know “Truth”. All children will be interchangeable drones for the State (no biological connections, no mother or fathers allowed—for the total dehumanization of people).

Truth will set you free and lies and disinformation is promoted to little children to warp them for life.

This is all to warp a little child’s perception of male and female—to destroy common sense, so that the State can destroy critical thinking and create tribal, serf, slave minds, where Up is Down and Slavery is Freedom for the Brave New World where there is no unique identity—no truth-—everything is subjective. It removes Objective Truth (God) from our Constitution and Rule of Law (Justice (virtue) System).

Forcing homosexuality, transexual is sexism (Hegelian dialectic) to desroy all natural instincts in little children and warp their perceptions of male and female and “sex” for life.

There is a biological difference between male and female-—and by destroying the Natural Family (as our ‘just” laws have been designed to do), you embed unnatural desires and attitudes in little children who are denied a biological mother or father (which is dehumanization and denies the Natural Rights of a baby).

All for the warping of the minds-—Mind Control-—of small children, to normalize vice and destroy the Christian worldview which created the Age of Reason and free will and individualism and Modern Science, which has to be erased for ignorant collective, totally controlled cultures (group (non) think tribal minds).

We have to get back to a TRUE “Justice” system which only promotes truth and “public virtue” to children at all times-—otherwise, the “laws” or regulations are “null and void” and unconstitutional.

The science is settled. A human is either a male or a female.

Mental illness has always be with us. But there is no need to accommodate a mentally ill man in a girls’ bathroom. Those who would allow such an outrage have their own mental illness issues.

Senfronia?? That’s a new one. Sort of rhymes with euphoria.

“Transgenderism, previously known as Gender Identity Disorder, was categorized as a mental illness by the World Health Organization until December 2016, but has now been reclassified as “Gender Incongruence”. So too for homosexuality, which was classified as a mental illness until 1992 by the World Health Organization, and has since been declassified as such.”

I was afraid something like this would happen following the disaster at Appomattox.

The Texas Legislature adjourned its 2017 session without the bill coming to a vote.

“The Texas Legislature adjourned its 2017 session without the bill coming to a vote.”

The governor can call a Special Session on this, and may well do so. We’ll know next week. Eventually this will get voted on, as the governor can keep calling Special Sessions for as long as it takes - and being in the legislature is a part-time job (5 months every two years), and pays $600 per month (no typo). So these guys really need to get back home to their day jobs. And we’ve been through this before...a Special Session was called by Perry - it deadlocked - then he called a second Special Session, and got his way.

Many speculate a special session could come after the June 18 bill signing deadline,
so lawmakers won’t be in position to override any vetoes the governor might use.

TX has millions of liberals, and few of them are named Senfronia.

When I was five or six, I was absolutely convinced that I was a grizzly bear. Bears, I thought, had it made. They could growl, explore, break into food, sleep a lot and do whatever they wanted. If there had been surgery to transform me into a grizzly bear, I would've wanted it.

I got over it one day when Dad took me to a hunting museum and showed me a grizzly bear rug with the head still attached. This, he pointed out, was what happen to grizzly bears who annoy humans too much.
