 Mayor Adler: Transgender and kicked out of military? Join Austin police force

In light of President Donald Trump’s Wednesday announcement that transgender Americans will be banned from serving in the military, Austin’s mayor had a message: Kicked out? Come to Austin.

In the first of a series of three tweets, Mayor Steve Adler said, “If you’re qualified to keep our country safe you’re qualified to keep Austin safe. Transgender Americans are welcome on our police force.” Adler continued, tweeting that Austin is the “safest big city in Texas” due to its respect for people’s differences. He also tweeted out a link to the application website for Austin Police Department: “If you get kicked out of the service because you're transgender, please apply to join our police force.”

Yep, are Austin safer by protecting citizens with people not based on skill but uncertainty of gender.

No thanks, Austin, we never knew you.

Austin is a gigantic liberal pimple on the backside of the great state of Texas.  The leftists have worked hard to achieve that status.  And they are working hard to make Houston, San Antonio and Dallas just as fubared.  I won't say what I would do to alleviate the situation.  I might get arrested for even thinking it (thought police alert).  But you can probably guess.
No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.

You can vote your way into socialism, but you have to shoot your way out of it.

Talk about your virtue signaling, sheesh. Look at me! I'm a wonderful human being -- and you're not.

Austin needs a new mayor. Preferably one with a functioning, rational brain.

There is no such thing as a trans gender person. You are either male or female XX chromosome or XY. Someone that wishes they were of a different sex to the extent that they mutilate their body has serious mental issues and should not be in law enforcement.

Good, concise summation.
