Duh
Just read that gambling addiction in Illinois has increased. Does that surprise anyone, since they continue to build more casinos in the state? Next thing, some very intelligent reporter will write an article that according to a study, marijuana addiction has increased in the state of Illinois. Sometimes these articles are really stupid. These studies are just spending money on predicable outcomes. Another study that will come is the increase of abortions in the state of Illinois. Duh.
The first step
To be clear, you’re either born a man or a woman. It’s not mean to tell someone this; it’s just fact. This generation has apparently been lied to so their feelings don’t get hurt, or are one big experiment. Understand many medical professionals have spoken out strongly about not castrating our children, but are being silenced because government wants to keep the fallacy alive. Years ago, children and parents had to undergo major levels of counseling to even be considered for any type of permanent surgeries, and now it’s almost done like a fast-food drive-thru, and we enable what may actually just be a whim. Research shows suicide rates are high because those who had the irreversible surgeries and became adults have bodies that aren’t cooperating with the changes, and are experiencing regret because they were lied to about how great their lives would be. Experts have said if children are allowed to go through puberty, their frame of mind also changes. Why are we allowing our children to be mutilated versus getting the mental counselling which should be the first step?
Best left alone
In reference to Millburn School District 24: To condemn board members for their beliefs about menstrual hygiene products in the boys washrooms is absolutely wrong. For some reason in our country, a small majority is trying to push transgender beliefs on all of America. One person said if your child is transgender that’s perfectly fine, but don’t force it onto my kids, or in general the whole student body. Myself, I don’t care if someone wants to change. Most people don’t care, but the small minority pushes for this change. In my opinion, the school board members were in the right expressing their beliefs on not changing the privacy of all who use these facilities. Some things are best left alone. Quit trying to push your beliefs on all of society. Leave our schools and washrooms alone.
Love it better
In response to “Love it”: Hey, all you Democratic, big-time losers, why don’t you keep running Sleepy Joe Biden with Laughing Hyena Harris? I love it better.
Stop your whining
To the “classic liberal state” contributor: Good grief, if you don’t like your state, move. You’re like a disgruntled employee who hates his job. Don’t like it, find another. Stop your darn whining.
Don’t tell me I’m bad
About this story, “Where is all this hate coming from?” You know, number one, I’m sick and tired of the LGBTQ community. I really don’t care, OK? No one needs to know your sexual preference. I am not changing my ways and my beliefs because you want to come out in the open, and then voice your opinions on your sexuality. I don’t care. Boys are boys. Girls are girls. You don’t put menstrual products in a boys washroom. Everything that was known to be good is now bad, and everything that’s bad is known to be good based on the worthless liberal media and the liberals that are trying to run this. I’m going to tell you right now, I don’t care who you are, what you are or what you do. I’ll try to live with you, but you’re never going to tell me how I’m going to feel. You’re not going to tell me I’m a bad person because I don’t believe in your beliefs, OK?
