Americans Are Embracing Transgender Rights
Daily Beast ^ | August 25, 2016 | Andrew McGill

Posted on 08/26/2016 7:08:49 AM PDT by C19fan

Change in America is a funny thing. It took two centuries for the country to agree that a black woman could marry a white man. On the other hand, same-sex marriage bans collapsed just a decade after the first state awarded recognition to gay couples. And there’s new evidence that national views are swinging even more quickly when it comes transgender Americans.

Given the zeitgeist of our time this is not surprising.

It’s the Daily Beadt fer crying out loud. It is a lie that Americans are embracing this mental illness. It is being rammed down the throats of people regardless. That will come back to bite them

Are we embracing or are we being bludgeoned with them?

One thing to assert ‘embracing’ but ask Target how their rabid support is working out for them...

They get equal rights, not special rights.
Check your pants, trannies.
If you have junk, use the men’s room.
If you don’t have junk, use the women’s room.

To the author: “Who is “WE” Kemosabe?”

And here I thought “Americans Are Embracing Traditional Marriage and Families”. (Oh wait — does that sound too “Bible-Thumperish”?)

Nope, not me - as long as I am changing oxygen into carbon dioxide there will always be at least 1 person remaining not buying into this bullspittle.

Every bit of this is drive by two entities.

Leftists

Our education system

The schools have been working on our children for twenty years.

Doesn’t sound like much, but then when you figure every person up to the age of 40 has been psyched into letting anyone do anything they wanted, it’s small wonder we’re where we are on this.

Moral relativism has worked it’s magic.

This is completely disingenuous, because in the case of homosexual marriage, it was all imposed by courts.

The first state to “award” marriage to homosexuals was imposed by a court. And it took a decade for similar cases to work their way through federal courts, and reach the Supreme Court.

Their whole premise about social change evolving and all that, is really bogus here. If you impose something through a court, is it really some great evolution of social change????

People who reject the reality of what they see in their underwear are mentally ill.
There are two sexes, male and female.
If you have a penis, you are male.
If you have a vagina, you are female.
Raging against nature does not change that, surgery only makes the problems worse.

"You will do this, or I will ruin you. Because I can."

This isn't really embracing change, so much as being trapped by a press gang.

But, since what liberals do is pretend, currently they're pretending that "people making a choice for themselves" and "people forced into believing something" is exactly the same. This will come around to bite them, eventually. It may be already, with Trump doing as well as he is.

This country is already rueing the day that the Leftists were able to pack the courts with Leftist idealogues, instead of judges that would rule Constitutionally.

There is no such thing as transgender, so the article makes no sense.

I think that Christians have resigned themselves to this time and they know the way society is going and are looking out for their own salvation and their family’s on a individual basis. I know we are to go out into the world and become salt and light but I believe the end is now nearer than anyone can hope for. In fact is this not the times where things we thought was good is now bad and the things we thought as bad is now good?

It is the complete brainwashing of children. Since the 70s, the Marxists/Lucifereans have been able to totally shape the desires and “thinking” of most of the children from cradle (tv) to grave.....and brainwashing WORKS always.

TV/Movies and skools are destroying the minds (ability to think) of our children ON PURPOSE. (TV destroys thinking for self as do skools which embed dependency-—programs artificial desires in artificial institutions, etc., and most is designed by Lucifereans).

Get your children OUT OF THE MATRIX which destroys the integration of the brain and embeds unnatural, evil, desires and worldview which is almost IMPOSSIBLE TO CORRECT.

Individualism and Free Will ONLY comes from having a bonded mother and father raising the children -—which embeds the CORRECT EMOTIONS And understanding of TRUTH. Children UNDER SEVEN should NEVER BE REMOVED FROM THEIR MOTHER AND FATHER FOR MORE THAN A FEW HOURS IF THAT____-AND ONLY WITH PEOPLE OF THE SAME MORALS AND SAME JUSTICE SYTEMS—otherwise you confuse and scare children so they are incapable of making sense of the world.
