First transgender officer on KC’s police force looks to the future
Kansas City Star ^ | May 31, 2007 | Christine Vendel

Posted on 05/31/2007 11:17:51 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Jessica, a Kansas City police officer, is 6 feet tall with a chin dimple, pink manicured fingernails and a birth certificate that says “male.”

But in her mind, Jessica believes she has always been a female.

She legally changed her name from David to Jessica last year. And in January, she gained the right to dress as a woman at work.

She asked co-workers to refer to her in female pronouns, like “she” and “her.” She started hormone therapy and removed most of her body hair with laser surgery, but she hasn’t had a sex-change operation, known as gender reassignment surgery. She needs to raise $17,500 first.

Why is the police department enabling a mental illness, and foisting it upon the unsuspecting public? In a sane world, this person’s choice of embracing an imaginary reality would render him unfit for any position of authority. If the dude thinks he’s a woman was other misconceptions does he have about the world around him? There are enough loser/power-tripping/corrupt cops as it is, now people have to worry about ones who don’t even have a grasp on reality. Ugh.

“Well, maybe a ‘dudette’?”

Nah. I use “dudette” as a legit word ascribed to a cute youngster of the feminine gender and I’ve heard others use it that way, too.

“I have a feeling, either way, he/she does not get too much action.”

Where in the Hell are those vomiting emoticons when you need ‘um??

Removing the prong and replacing it with a receptacle, does not change the DNA.

KCK the suburb

Believe it or not, KCK was incorporated in 1850 - years before sprawl joined the two together. KCK has always been its own city - it's not a burb - just a town with a name that reflects its geographic location.

KCMO has just endured two terms of flaming liberal leadership. All the department heads are political hacks. The Garrison community center in NE KCMO houses an ISLAMIC MOSQUE on weekends. They put down rolls of butcher paper so the worshippers can pray - undefiled by the wood floors to Mecca. And the head of the MCI airport authorized footbaths.

This is the liberal suicide agenda in action. What kind of lawsuits need to be presented to the city council to stop such folly?

“IT” seems appropriate to me. The twisted folks who write these stories think they will make folks feel all warm and fuzzy. But I think most (I hope) who see such garbage just want to puke.

No one. But the selection of the fall-person to be accused, in pursuit of a phat settlement to retire early on, just got even bigger.

It seems to be the preferred way to cash out...better and safer than faking injury.

I didn’t mean to demean KCK by calling it a suburb. It’s an economic designation — I’d bet a lot more people commute from KCK to KCM than vise versa.

I’m sitting here writing this in Decatur, Georgia, which is a suburb, functionally speaking, of Atlanta. Decatur existed decades before Atlanta, and according to local lore — the historical accuracy of which is doubtful — Decatur was offered the railroad hub that would ultimately grow into Atlanta, but turned it down, because the residents didn’t want the noise and smoke. So the surveyors moved a few miles west.

"But in her mind, Jessica believes she has always been a female. She asked co-workers to refer to her in female pronouns, like “she” and “her.”

In my mind, I'm George Bush. So I'm asking co-FReepers to please refer to me as "Mr. President".

So it took him 40 years to figure this out, and pink fingernails and earrings are as far as he got?

Uh-uh. Nope. Do the surgery and then we'll see. Until then, you're just a cross-dresser.

Hmmm...

1. They forgot the horse and dog *bleep*ers. Can’t be judgemental, you know.

2. Including Intersexs (i.e., people with a genuine problem) with these self-obsessed loony toons is beyond vile.

You're right. Is it air-conditioned where UR? My brain is fried!
