This is what it takes. Don’t compete against the gender-deranged perverts. Make them compete with themselves.

Yes, indeed. Now let’s hope this judge’s ruling isn’t overturned by some woke higher court.

If the ruling stands (as it should), we might have a Rosa Parks type event here. These girls stood up for their rights, and won. Now more girls might be inspired to do the same.

From the article:

"The judge also seemed to think that the girl’s case leaned toward a free speech issue, not a gender issue. Still, he also said that there was no malice on behalf of the administrators at Lincoln Middle School who initiated the ban on the girls."

Balderdash. While there apparently was a rule about being scratched from the next track meet when scratching from a current meet, a single event ban doesn't come close to a total ban... which is the punishment they received.

I'd go further too: they didn't "scratch" due to injury or any other reason... they showed up and were ready to compete, then forfeited. I don't know the exact wording of their rules, but that doesn't sound like the same thing that would have triggered even a single event banning. I believe they were singled-out for a hash punishment to send a message. The judge only got it half right.

Once upon a time I would have said “who didn’t see this coming.”

Now I’m surprised, and thankful.

I’m also thankful the girls weren’t arrested for “causing an insurrection.”

[[Now let’s hope this judge’s ruling isn’t overturned by some woke higher court.]]

Having seen this movie many times in the past, it is likely that that is exactly what will happen- I hope I’m proven wrong- But the left are really steamrolling over the right because the left hold all the power, or control it- ie far left biased higher courts to undo what lower courts decide- The left are now even ignoring the SC whenever the decisions don’t favor the leftist agenda, and there seems to be nothing the right can do about slapping them back via charges- and when they try- some liberal court will rule “No Standing”- but the left launch charges against the right all the time

Nonetheless, the local voters, who reside in a county that went for Trump by a 2 to 1 margin in both 2016 and 2020, need to remove the woke school board members. Voting for Trump is good, but the real battle is at the city, county, and school board levels. Why do you think George Soros has focused his financial efforts at those seemingly secondary positions? He knows what he is doing. So should real Americans.

The Governor would have had to step in if the court hadn’t.

“being forced to compete against a transgender player in their high school track & field events”

Kinda disagree with that.....they had a choice to refuse to compete if they so chose, although they should never have been put in a position to make that decision.....boycotting is what would stop this jackassery in it’s tracks.

“Another backward school district.”

And in West Virginia.

I know West Virginia has a long, sordid history; birthed in illegitimacy.

Still, the district's actions surprised me.

Bravo! Refuse to compete against trans people with an inherent physical advantage. Don’t play their silly game. And notice it’s always transitioned males who are at issue, never transitioned females.

Thats exactly what they did. And then the school district banned them.
