A police body camera video from a campus student housing building at the University of Central Florida showed a trans person going on a screaming and uncontrollable rage after he was misgendered.
Many trans extremists believe that non-affirmation of their identity is grounds for violence.
@maria_lamb_ Just like taxes, the drawback is that once the tolls are started, they will never end. The countries receiving the benefits will fight to keep them going. A short-term win for a long-term burden.
@maria_lamb_ Many people don't realize that abolishing NATO is not a solution the USA can force. The question is, does the USA need to be part of it if the other NATO nations refuse to reciprocate courtesies to us?
@maria_lamb_ Ha! No need to apologize. I understand the need to rant and politely let you get it out. My reply was to gently pull you back from the rant (without overstepping, I hope). I tell my family that you're my Irish friend.
TX GOP voters spoke: #Prop10 passed w/overwhelming 94.8% support, signaling demand to prohibit Sharia law. Tho non-binding, the measure could influence party platform to push bans in the 2027 legislative session, amid efforts to counter foreign legal influences. #TexasPolitics
.@realtomhoman tells @perdiexamerica that he'd "be happy to sit down and explain" to Pope Leo XIV what he's missing in his critiques of Trump's deportations
"I'm a lifelong Catholic, still a practicing Catholic. Catholic faith is always in support of law enforcement, always has been, and he should be, too.
I've said it many times before. You ought to be fixing the Catholic Church, 'cause they've got their own issues.
But the bottom line is, if we jumped the wall at the Vatican, the penalties for doing that are much harder than the ones here in the United States, entering the country illegally.
So, look, what he doesn't understand is there's a flip side to illegal immigration. 31% of women get r*ped making that journey. Over 4,000 aliens died making that journey under Joe Biden. A quarter million Americans died of fentanyl because of the open border.
When you overwhelm the border patrol, all the bad things happen. Sex trafficking increases, fentanyl increases. Securing the border saves lives.
And I'd be happy to sit down and explain it to him, that illegal immigration is not a victimless crime. So President Trump having illegal immigration down 96%, he's saving thousands of lives every year."
@maria_lamb_ A mostly Southern expression is "you need to grow a pair" and means to "man up". It is also said to women to encourage them to take ownership of their life situations. I usually just say "you need balls". ๐คฃ
