Watch a conservative Southern Baptist talk about her 4 YO Transgender Daughter.

The Southern Baptist recently adopted a  religious decree instructing their congregations to fight and defeat transgender people as we attempt to integrate into society. The Fatwa put in no uncertain terms how they expected their members who are employers, restaurant and theater owners to actively oppose transgender people living a normal life.

This decree alienates the Southern Baptists much as their support of slavery and complicity with Jim Crow Laws did.

But not every Southern Baptist took those instructions verbatim. One member actually read the bible and searched for information and meanings before condemning her.

#RIPMia Henderson second recent and possibly related Baltimore transgender murder

Not to be disrespectful or inconsiderate but when a high profile athlete calls his murdered sister a 'brother' the world gets the wrong impression. Some see it as a license to disrespect and misgender her and all transgender people. Some see its as authority to question her gender expression..


LA Sports writer Dan Woike and Transgender Pastor Yeshua A. Holiday tweeted about this, drawing the ire of some on twitter. They questioned how they knew of the relationship between Reggie Bullock and the deceased. If Reggie Bullock's tweets in the time of his sorrow were any indication, he didn't accept that she was transgender. This was picked on by quite a few on twitter, but as they attempted to educate they were remanded by some men for being inconsiderate. That was the perfect time to educate, and most were respectful. All were emotional the reason being that most trans people are on the streets putting themselves at risk because they were rejected and misunderstood by family.

Horrible news. So sorry to hear MT @AP_Sports Slain transgender woman was sibling of #NBA player Reggie Bullock: http://t.co/KIhxA2IXYm

Source The Baltimore Sun Police said Henderson died of "severe trauma."

A neighbor wiped tears from her eyes as she walked the alley. She said she believes she saw the victim and her killer go down the narrow corridor sometime around 5 a.m.

The woman, who declined to provide her name out of fear, said she was walking on Garrison Boulevard to meet a friend early Wednesday when she saw a light-skinned black man in a white T-shirt, white baseball cap and blue jeans looking around nervously.

She said the man had approached her friend and proposed $10 for a "date," but she had turned him down.

The woman said she and her friend walked to a porch on Piedmont Avenue across from the alley's entrance and watched a transgender woman in a skirt and shoulder-length black wig accompany the same man into the alley.

The woman said she recognized the transgender woman because she had seen her standing on the corner of Piedmont and Garrison during predawn hours several times over the last few months.

"I saw her and him coming up right here in the morning," she said. "I didn't hear no screams. I didn't hear no guns."

As the sun rose a short time later, she said, she saw police converge on the alley.

Baltimore police spokesman Lt. Eric Kowalczyk said prostitution is being investigated as a circumstance in the crime. Maryland court records show that Henderson had been arrested twice for alleged prostitution.

She was charged in February 2013 with prostitution, resisting arrest and second-degree assault, according to the records. She was convicted on the assault charge and sentenced to two years in prison. Most of the sentence was suspended.

Women who live around Garrison said they've noticed more and more aggressive men approaching prostitutes demanding sex or trying to "bait" or lure them to empty structures.

June 3rd Kandy Hall was found murdered and in April of last year, 29-year-old Kelly Young was shot and killed in East Baltimore. Her killer was never caught

President Obama to protect transgender workers on the federal level Monday

At 6:49 pm July 18th 2014 The White House emailed advance notice of a historic advancement for transgender rights stating that "On Monday morning, the President will sign an Executive Order to protect LGBT employees from workplace discrimination."

With a stroke of Mr. Obama's pen transgender will have the same protections that gay people have enjoyed for decades,

Source NY Times "Mr. Obama warned last month that he was prepared to act on his own to extend the protections because the drive in Congress for a national anti-bias law to cover nearly all employers, a bill known as the Employment Nondiscrimination Act, had stalled."

"In extending the new protections, Mr. Obama is building on two longstanding executive orders. He is adding sexual orientation and gender identity to the list of protections that apply to federal contractors and that were approved by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965. And he is adding gender identity as a protected category to a 1969 directive by President Richard M. Nixon that applies to federal employees, which was later amended by President Bill Clinton to include sexual orientation."

Religious groups that have contracts with the federal government already have a limited exemption from existing anti-bias rules, based on a 2002 executive order by President George W. Bush. That directive allows them to factor their religious beliefs in their employment decisions.

The directive will not change under the new rule. Michael Wear, who led the religious outreach during Mr. Obama’s re-election campaign and had joined calls for a religious exemption, said he was “encouraged” by that move.

Mr. Wear said the new order provided “a path for the administration to both advance protections for L.G.B.T. Americans and continue to respect the religious identity (sic biggots) of organizations serving our nation in partnership with the federal government.”

But some groups wanted Mr. Obama to go further to protect religious groups in carving out an exception. One example of such protections would allow a Catholic charity that believes sex outside heterosexual marriage is a sin to keep its government financing if it declined to hire a gay man.

Thank you Mr Obama.

DCF moves Trans teen Jane Doe to a male jail without notifying her attorney

Connecticut Department of Children and Families (DCF) is more concerned about the potential fall out than the welfare of Jane. Without so much as a word to her lawyers the girl was moved to a male jail purportedly for an altercation a resident at a female facility.

Previously Jane had been incarcerated in solitary, without committing a crime, and and would have remained would have remained there if not for the efforts of our community.

What purpose could possibly be served by placing her in a male jail other than punishment?

The New Have Register published Sunday the 13th reported that:

Officials said there is no “suitable place” in the Children’s Psychiatric Center in Middletown and placed her in the Juvenile Training School in Middletown, Connecticut’s only secure facility for delinquent boys.

She is in a single room separated from the boys.

“State police have been notified and we are confident they will take whatever action they deem is appropriate,” DCF said.

So Jane is back in solitary but this time she's locked up in a facility for delinquent boys.

Just got word that @CTDCF moved Jane to CT Juvenile Training School:a boy's facility. This is an outrage. Waiting on details #JusticeForJane
— Justice for Jane (@Justice4JaneCT) July 13, 2014

ACLU Staff Attorney Chase Strangio tweeted...

Non-trans girls never sent 2 boys' facility as punishment; if a fight involves a trans person they r punished more harshly #JusticeForJane
— Chase Strangio (@chasestrangio) July 13, 2014

.@emily_esque Whether @CTDCF/@GovMalloyOffice care, the people will make them act. It's time for action. Details coming soon #JusticeForJane

Seattle transgender attack being investigated as a hate crime

Seattle police are looking for Marjorie Marple, pictured left, for her role in an alleged attack on a Seattle women she by all accounts, assumed was transgender.

The police said the attack became a hate crime when they started using slurs aimed at her gender expression and perceived sexual orientation.

KIRO TV Sgt. Sean Whitcomb of the Seattle Police Department said the suspects became more aggressive when they thought the victim was transgender.
"They upped their behavior. They aggravated their behavior and started name calling and getting physically aggressive," said Whitcomb.

Radio hack Alex Jones calling Michelle Obama a 'tranny' is a compliment.

“Well, Joan Rivers talked about it the other day, and now it’s an international news story,” Jones said on-air. “The question is, ‘Who is Michelle Obama? Is she really a woman? Is she a man?

Jones went on to say...

“[E]specially,” Jones added, “when every time I look at ‘Michelle’ or ‘Michael’ Obama — the first lady, or first tranny — something doesn’t look right.”

Michelle Obama “doesn’t look like any black woman I’ve ever known” and criticized her for having “shoulders that are wider than a man’s, which physiologically doesn’t happen.” - Alex Jones

Being transgender I don't see comparing us to cis-people like Michelle as a bad thing, but intentionally misgendering her to invalidate her racial heritage is beyond belief. I know. You're asking, saying she's a tranny is a good thing now? I and most all of the transgender communities have fought gay people's efforts for years as the strove to belittle us with defamation like 'tranny. And now I'm saying calling the First Lady a Tranny is a compliment? It is when it comes from Alex Jones and his ilk.

If we felt it was derogatory we'd be handing Jones a victory by default.

So let's own this. Let's acknowledge that calling the First Lady a Tranny is empowering not only for us but by Michelle Obama as well, being the intelligent enlightened woman whom she is I'm sure she understands.

There's no need to call for an apology from Alex Jones or Joan Rivers

When Jones an overweight white bigot attempts to throw trans people and the entire black race into his hate-filled stew pot and stir discord by pointing out our shared humanity, there can only be one outcome. Inadvertently, Jones screed increases our empathy for one another drawing us closer.

And Jones is scared of all powerful fit women, not just Michelle. Yes, she appears healthy, most likely from time weight lifting and running. I too have muscular arms and that unique buff-ness that comes from physical exercise. There's no shame in caring for the body that was gifted to you.

And yes I run like a girl. You'd never be able to keep up 'heart attack' Jones.

Alex Jones calling Michelle Obama a 'tranny' is a compliment.

Austin lingerie shop owner says denying a trans woman service was 'dumb' and makes effort to learn

There may be hope for Kirk Andrews owner of Petticoat Fair Austin Texas after all. June 28th an employee denied transgender woman Kylie Jack services offered by the store.. Soon afterwards Andrews responded on facebook basically upholding the sales woman's actions posting:

"The dressing room area is a particularly private and vulnerable place for many women and girls, so it’s a protected area. For that reason, we also have a completely separate dressing area for women who have undergone mastectomies and need post-surgical care. (Our fitter invited Kylie and companion into this part of our store so they could have this delicate conversation privately.)"

  Kylie said that option wasn't offered.

"Just as a gym won’t allow men in a women’s dressing room (and vice versa) for the comfort and safety of its patrons, we don’t allow men or boys above a certain age in our dressing area. Despite our otherwise inclusive approach, those who might be or who outwardly appear to be men (regardless of how they are dressed) pose a delicate challenge, and in the case of imposters, can pose a safety risk to the Petticoat Fair staff."

(To read the full embedded facebook post click the date and time. Will open in a new window)

Post by Kylie Jack.

Andrews wasn't prepared for the trans backlash. Austin is known for being a progressive city and the community there and elsewhere wasted no time in expressing their outrage following this incredibly problematic facebook post by him.

Post by Petticoat Fair.

In an abrupt turn around Andrews has gone public saying the shops policy of indiscriminately denying public accommodations was 'dumb'. Who knows, perhaps Andrews read Austins 5-2-4 PROHIBITED PRACTICES and realized that he had already admitted publicly violating, putting him at risk of a costly lawsuit.

Perhaps it was all the 'yelling' and there was plenty of that to be sure.



It looks like this is being resolved amicably...

Joan Rivers calls Michelle Obama a 'tranny'

Joan Rivers first calls president Obama gay then elaborates muttering defamation barely audibly saying Michelle Obama is a 'tranny'. Rivers then called her a 'transgender'.

UK Express: The 81-year-old - who hit headlines this week after officiating a gay marriage at her book signing in New York - made the shocking claim during an impromptu interview with a journalist yesterday.

When asked if she thought the US might get their first gay or female president in the future, she replied: "We already have that with Obama. You know Michelle is a trans."

By calling Mrs. Obama transgender Rivers inadvertently acknowledges that she is a powerful, strong willed woman unafraid to buck trends and speak her mind. But to Rivers saying Michelle is transgender is the ultimate put down, that is how a bigoted mind works.

I'd like to thank Rivers for elevating our community by associating us with this amazing woman and offer my sympathies to her for having a weak and hateful soul.

Amazing Kentucky Principal stands up for transgender students

Student Christina Kelty speaking against the policy said that she feels its unfair that a minority
should have the same rights as cisgender Christians.

It takes courage to stand up to transphobia but its extraordinary when that happens in the bible belt. Atherton Kentucky principal Dr. Thomas Aberli told the assembly that he was standing by his policy allowing students access to public accommodations.

 Dr.Aberli addressed the alliance defending religious freedom.org letter appealing the policy saying that he's taking personnel responsibility for his decision to allow transgender students to use the bathroom that matches their gender expression

Source Courier Journal A group of parents and community members have appealed Atherton High School's new policy that allows students to use the restroom and locker room of their sexual identity.

Atherton's site-based decision-making council will meet at 5 p.m. Tuesday to discuss the appeal, which was submitted in writing by Clinton Elliott, a Louisville attorney with the Christian-based legal group Alliance Defending Freedom.

"We submit that the SBDM council decision on June 5, 2014…violates the bounds of their authority relating to the use of space under (state law) and is inconsistent with state and federal law, inconsistent with concerns for safety and inconsistent with concerns for liability," the letter reads. "We therefore hereby appeal that decision, request a hearing and request that the SBDM council reconsider and reverse its decision."

Suspect surrenders to police for the murder of Transwoman Tiffany Edwards

Quamar Edwards wanted for the murder of Transwoman Tiffany Edwards, turns himself in to police. The suspect's uncle told WLWT:

"MY NEPHEW AIN'T ON NO HATE STUFF. DON'T MAKE IT KIND OF SEEN LIKE A MONSTER OR A VILLAIN." QUAMAR'S UNCLE SAYS TIFFANY ASKED HIS NEFF KNEW FOR A RIDE AND SOMEHOW THINGS ESCALATED FROM THERE.

 "APPARENTLY HE FOUND OUT THE BOY WAS GAY BECAUSE HE TRIED TO HIT ON HIM AND ALL OTHER KIND OF STUFF. AND I TOLD YOU MY NEPHEW GOT AN ATTITUDE ABOUT THAT NOW. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THAT, BUT THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH BECAUSE THE GUY WAS GAY."

WLWT and most Ohio media outlets identifies Tiffany as a man using her birth name. WLWT s does its best to present a man who committed a transpanic murder as the victim. If the murder did go down like how his uncle says it did, he was motivated by transpanic.. California's Assembly just voted for legislation outlawing that defense. AB-2501 is expected to pass the Senate and become law this year.



The investigation remains ongoing, and anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the Cincinnati Police Department Criminal Investigation Section at (513) 352-3042.

Burger King Gay Whopper sends Wingnuts spiraling into a H8 filled tizzy

Burger King will be rolling out a new "Pride" burger this morning resplendent with a rainbow rapper. It will only be sold in San Fransisco for a limited time to celebrate there first ever sponsorship of a pride celebration.

Fernando Machado, senior vice president of global brand management at Burger King told CNBC "It showcases who we are as a brand," says . "It shows how we, as a brand, believe in self expression."

The inspiration behind the unusual burger wrap and video, he says, is Burger King's localized efforts to put into motion actions that support its recently-tweaked slogan: "Be Your Way."

I'm not all in love with cooperate sponsorships but my reservations are limited to the potential assimilation and influence that has on our culture.

But don't you know the 'Christians' are all up set, so much so one made this very funny video. Some vowed on the comments to boycott all BK's and to 'take back' the rainbow. News Flash bible thumpers.....no one owns the rainbow....



Now the BK video
