The Education Department Officially Says It Will Reject Transgender Student Bathroom Complaints
Buzz Feed ^ | February 12, 2018 | Dominic Holden

The Education Department has told BuzzFeed News it won't investigate or take action on any complaints filed by transgender students who are banned from restrooms that match their gender identity, charting new ground in the Trump administration's year-long broadside against LGBT rights.

It’s the first time officials have asserted this position publicly as an interpretation of law. No formal announcement has been made.

For nearly a year, the Trump administration took a less clear stance, with officials saying they were studying the issue ...

...new ground in the Trump administration's year-long broadside against LGBT rights

Most Americans call this a return to normalcy. "LGBT rights" - BS. Call it what it is -- the right of a psycho male to enter a female bathroom.

The country is off its rocker, largely thanks to that BASTARD who, in October 2008, uttered "We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America."

Outstanding!!! Let the locals handle it. We don’t need federal guidance or threats to deal with crazies. Gender Disphoria is classified as a mental illness. I refuse to cosign their bullshiite.

I’m sick of all these weirdos and their enablers.

I know the liberals bitch about us being “binary” in this gender fluid world they dream.of.

But why do we have to make any accommodation at all?

Life is so.much simpler if you can say, people with penises go in here, people with vaginas go in there.

Sorry for brusque comment, but the classic male/female setup avoids all this gender identity business.

And how in the same hill did all.this gender identity gender fluid stuff, somehow become a ,”civil rights” issue????

You want to see a real bloody scene, you just let high school “boys”start showing up in girls restrooms acting like they are mentally ill. You wont believe your eyes. What the girls leave hanging on ,their boyfriends will pull off.

If we continue down this slippery slope, next thing you know there will be no such thing as homo marriage.

However, if they start acting polite for a change, we might let them have "civil unions."

Who knows? The title was so ambiguous I'm still scratching my head.

DOE won't take complaints from cross-dressers, or normal students?

Please apologize for using the offensive term, “that BASTARD”, when it should have been, “that subhuman, anti-American, traitorous, Islamo-communist BASTARD.”

Good! I am sick and tired of 1 in 10,000 or 100,000 dictating to the rest of us how we should talk, write or go to the bathroom. You have 2 X chromosomes, you are female; if you have 1 X and 1 Y, you are a guy. PERIOD!

I am SO sorry. Please accept my most humble apology. You are absolutely correct, of course.

Does "Islamo-communist" also include him being moslem? Or just describe his sympathies? Shouldn't it be “that subhuman, anti-American, traitorous, Islamo-communist, moslem BASTARD."
