The Supreme Court on Thursday allowed a 12-year-old transgender girl in West Virginia to continue competing on her middle school´s girls sports teams while a lawsuit over a state ban continues.

Hush, conservative. I’m here to help you.
He’s flying an Irish flag on his profile page.
Make of that what you will.
Remember when all they wanted was for “Two men to be legally married to each other”?
Remember when we warned about that “slippery slope” and were ridiculed and called homophobic?
Now all they want are our children.
Stuff it, foreigner. Go back to Ireland and stay there.
“Sorry, but I think this is an over-reaction. The SCOTUS only decided not to overturn the 4th Circuit’s injunction of enforcement of the statute while the case is pending appeal in the 4th Circuit. This is not particularly shocking, since a 12 year old running in cross-country is hardly an emergency situation.”
True, and the SCOTUS seldom takes up emergency appeals, otherwise they’d be swamped by thousands of them every session.
However, it’s a lot more fun to ignore the details, and rant and rave about how the SCOTUS are selling us out, when they actually haven’t made any type of ruling on the merits of the case.
In due time my CONservative friend, but first you need my help and guidance. Consider my time with you a Good Work.
Exactly my thought. Not an emergency and not "ripe" for SCOTUS action. On the other hand, when he enters puberty, even with hormone blockers, and has to wear a jock strap, it would become an emergency as his presence in sports would overcome female performance.
We don’t need arrogant mouthy foreigners from pissant little countries shitposting about America.
You need to shut up and go home. Everything you post here makes this site dumber.
I award you not points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Goodbye.
The Supreme Court rarely issues emergency orders.
Somebody should show up at the steps of the USSC and say they identify as a supreme court justice and demand to be let in to sit on the bench.
Lawsuit continues; in the meantime, he gets to continue competing. Not nearly as bad as the disinformation media portrayed it. They simply won’t bar the trans person from competing while the lawsuit is pending.
If it tests a Y, it’s a guy.
Can’t change that!
Morrisey is defending the real women and girls. He’s defending teh law that is being challenged.

"Supreme Court rules 12-year-old transgender girl CAN compete in middle school girls sports teams in West Virginia while lawsuit over state bans continues
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
The misguided (imo) post-FDR era Supreme Court is arguably not only ignoring case precedent that recognized only biological sex at birth, evidenced by Minor v. Happersett (Minor), but also seems to be ignoring that the states have never expressly constitutionally protected sex outside the scope of voting rights issues, evidenced by the 19th Amendment which was inspired the Court's decision in Minor.
“3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnished an additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had [emphasis added].” —Minor v. Happersett, 1874.
"19th Amendment:
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."
After all, the justices who decided Minor did not tell Virginia Minor that she needed only to claim to be a man in order to vote.
The Supremes also seem to be showing intent to weaponize the court system, possibly hoping that the state court decides in favor the (indoctrinated?) 12-year-old versus constitutionally unchecked state powers on this state law imo.
Please tell me more about NOT points. Is it some kind of conservative code you folks speak in? But that said, I'll be here as long as there is whiskey to drink, women to love and people like you who make me laugh.
“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive”
Let me guess, all the female justices voted for this.
If I understand the situation correctly, the legislation prohibits persons of the penile persuasion from competing against those of the vaginal persuasion, and the politician was defending the law and the girls and women who are actually girls and women against those of the transmogrificational persuasion.
bad headline, the supreme court did not rule on anything, but simply said let the process continue with the appeals court for now.
