Apparent Bucks suicide points up transgender stresses

Jessica Moscatel came out as transgender in 11th-grade English class this spring. The teen asked classmates and teachers to call him Riley Matthew Moscatel from then on.
They did.
The request met little resistance at Bucks County Technical High School, which has other transgender or openly gay students.
"Everyone supported him," said a friend, Kate Cimino, who will be a junior this year. "Everyone loved Riley. He was everyone's best friend."
But on Monday, the 17-year-old appeared to commit suicide, the county Coroner's Office said. Police recovered surveillance video that showed the teen stepping in front of an Amtrak train near his home in Bristol Township.
Coroner Joseph Campbell said Wednesday that his office was continuing to investigate the death. Efforts to reach Moscatel's family were unsuccessful.
His friends and teachers were grasping for answers Wednesday. Friends said he had suffered from depression when he was younger but had improved. However, they said he felt increasingly uncomfortable in his female body.
A note Moscatel appeared to have posted on his Instagram account Monday stated: "My mirror reflects Jessica, my heart and mind say Riley ... You see me as the happiest person in school, I'm a prisoner of my own body ..."

I hope all the enablers are happy they did not try to find real help for this child's mental disorder. Instead they all play the game that this is just normal stuff. So sad. A society that can't see that these people need HELP not acceptance. We have drugs for every other mental condition. It's not "normal" to be down in the dumps, so here, take this pill. But to think you are another gender and that's just normal and even worthy of celebrating. Sick.

Nah, they’ll blame you instead for being insensitive or something.

Apparent Bucks suicide points up transgender stressesOR... maybe its another indication that the urge to change genders and depression are both symptoms of mental disorder.

Everyone Should Know These Statistics on Homosexuals
- One study reports 70% of homosexuals admitting to having sex only one time with over 50% of their partners.
- One study reports that the average homosexual has between 20 and 106 partners per year. The average heterosexual has 8 partners in a lifetime.
- Many homosexual sexual encounters occur while drunk, high on drugs, or in an orgy setting.
- Many homosexuals don't pay heed to warnings of their lifestyles: "Knowledge of health guidelines was quite high, but this knowledge had no relation to sexual behavior."
- Homosexuals got homosexuality removed from the list of mental illnesses in the early 70s by storming the annual American Psychiatric Association (APA) conference on successive years. "Guerrilla theater tactics and more straight-forward shouting matches characterized their presence." Since homosexuality has been removed from the APA list of mental illnesses, so has pedophilia (except when the adult feels "subjective distress").
- Homosexuals account for 3-4% of all gonorrhea cases, 60% of all syphilis cases, and 17% of all hospital admissions (other than for STDs) in the United States (5). They make up only 1-2% of the population.
- Homosexuals live unhealthy lifestyles, and have historically accounted for the bulk of syphilis, gonorrhea, Hepatitis B, the "gay bowel syndrome" (which attacks the intestinal tract), tuberculosis and cytomegalovirus (27).
- 73% of psychiatrists say homosexuals are less happy than the average person, and of those psychiatrists, 70% say that the unhappiness is NOT due to social stigmatization (13).
- 25-33% of homosexuals and lesbians are alcoholics (11).
- Of homosexuals questioned in one study reports that 43% admit to 500 or more partners in a lifetime, 28% admit to 1000 or more in a lifetime, and of these people, 79% say that half of those partners are total strangers, and 70% of those sexual contacts are one night stands (or, as one homosexual admits in the film "The Castro", one minute stands) (3). Also, it is a favorite past-time of many homosexuals to go to "cruisy areas" and have anonymous sex.
- 78% of homosexuals are affected by STDs (20).
- Judge John Martaugh, chief magistrate of the New York City Criminal Court has said, "Homosexuals account for half the murders in large cities" (10).
- Captain William Riddle of the Los Angeles Police says, "30,000 sexually abused children in Los Angeles were victims of homosexuals" (10).
- 50% of suicides can be attributed to homosexuals (10).
- Dr. Daniel Capron, a practicing psychiatrist, says, "Homosexuality by definition is not healthy and wholesome. The homosexual person, at best, will be unhappier and more unfulfilled than the sexually normal person" (10). For other psychiatrists who believe that homosexuality is wrong, please see National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality.
- It takes approximately $300,000 to take care of each AIDS victim, so thanks to the promiscuous lifestyle of homosexuals, medical insurance rates have been skyrocketing for all of us(10).
- Homosexuals were responsible for spreading AIDS in the United States, and then raised up violent groups like Act Up and Ground Zero to complain about it. Even today, homosexuals account for well over 50% of the AIDS cases in the United States, which is quite a large number considering that they account for only 1-2% of the population.
- Homosexuals account for a disproportionate number of hepatitis cases: 70-80% in San Francisco, 29% in Denver, 66% in New York City, 56% in Toronto, 42% in Montreal, and 26% in Melbourne (8).
- 37% of homosexuals engage in sadomasochism, which accounts for many accidental deaths. In San Francisco, classes were held to teach homosexuals how to not kill their partners during sadomasochism (8).
- 41% of homosexuals say they have had sex with strangers in public restrooms, 60% say they have had sex with strangers in bathhouses, and 64% of these encounters have involved the use of illegal drugs (8).
- Depending on the city, 39-59% of homosexuals are infected with intestinal parasites like worms, flukes and amoebae, which is common in filthy third world countries (8).
- The median age of death of homosexuals is 42 (only 9% live past age 65). This drops to 39 if the cause of death is AIDS. The median age of death of a married heterosexual man is 75 (8).
- The median age of death of lesbians is 45 (only 24% live past age 65). The median age of death of a married heterosexual woman is 79 (8).
- Homosexuals are 100 times more likely to be murdered (usually by another homosexual) than the average person, 25 times more likely to commit suicide, and 19 times more likely to die in a traffic accident (8).
- 21% of lesbians die of murder, suicide or traffic accident, which is at a rate of 534 times higher than the number of white heterosexual females aged 25-44 who die of these things(8).
- 50% of the calls to a hotline to report "queer bashing" involved domestic violence (i.e., homosexuals beating up other homosexuals) (18).
- About 50% of the women on death row are lesbians (12). Homosexuals prey on children.
- 33% of homosexuals ADMIT to minor/adult sex (7).
- There is a notable homosexual group, consisting of thousands of members, known as the North American Man and Boy Love Association ( NAMBLA). This is a child molesting homosexual group whose cry is "SEX BEFORE 8 BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE." This group can be seen marching in most major homosexual parades across the United States.
- Homosexuals commit more than 33% of all reported child molestations in the United States, which, assuming homosexuals make up 2% of the population, means that 1 in 20 homosexuals is a child molestor, while 1 in 490 heterosexuals is a child molestor (19).
- 73% of all homosexuals have had sex with boys under 19 years of age (9).
- Many homosexuals admit that they are pedophiles: "The love between men and boys is at the foundation of homosexuality" (22).
- Because homosexuals can't reproduce naturally, they resort to recruiting children. Homosexuals can be heard chanting "TEN PERCENT IS NOT ENOUGH, RECRUIT, RECRUIT, RECRUIT" in their homosexual parades. A group called the "Lesbian Avengers" prides itself on trying to recruit young girls. They print "WE RECRUIT" on their literature. Some other homosexuals aren't as overt about this, but rather try to infiltrate society and get into positions where they will have access to the malleable minds of young children (e.g., the clergy, teachers, Boy Scout leaders, etc.) (8). See the DC Lesbian Avengers web page, and DC Lesbian Avengers Press Release, where they threaten to recruit little boys and girls. Also, see AFA Action Alert.

I was amazed to discover that God not only created man and woman, but a third sex hesheit. When I was a kid I played with dolls, but they were called G.I.Joe while my sister played with a similar piece of plastic and she called it Barbie. Sexual identity develops as the brain develops and by confusing our youth with insecurities about their sexuality or with the void of a role model( as in a male daddy and female mommy) stir in some more confusion with the daily television shows ( can't wait for the homosexual bachelor show and then homosexual bachelorette). Political correctness gone amock

The problem with killing yourself by Amtrak train, is you immediately screw up thousands of other people lives for a day. This is a very selfish way to end it all.

The request met little resistance at Bucks County Technical High School, which has other transgender or openly gay students.Of course there was little resistance. What do you think would have happened to any student who dared to suggest that this was not normal, and maybe, just maybe, "Riley" was suffering from serious psychological problems? At the very least, that student would have been suspended, forced to apologize, and ordered to attend "sensitivity training." Any teacher who dared question the situation would be out of a job.

So Ms Jessica Moscatel became a Him by making a simple declaration in Her English class? I guess I can stand in the street and Declare I am changing my status to be, instead of a loyal to the USA taxpayer, that I am now the President of the USA?
