‘Save women’s sports’ bill passes House with zero votes from Dems, who call it transgender ‘bullying’
One Democrat said that even just debating the bill was 'traumatizing'

By Peter Kasperowicz | Fox News

    The House on Thursday passed legislation aimed at preventing biological males from competing as transgender athletes in girls’ and women’s sports at schools across the country, after a debate in which several Democrats accused Republicans of "bullying" transgender students by calling up the bill.

The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act passed in a 219-203 vote Thursday morning – all the "yes" votes came from Republicans, and all the "no" votes came from Democrats.

Republicans defended the bill as an attempt to spare women and girls from having to compete against transgender women and girls – biological males who can sometimes dominate these sports and prevent some female athletes from making the team. But several Democrats argued in debate that the GOP bill is an extension of the bullying that transgender students are already facing at school.

"This bill is about bullying children," said Rep. Greg Landsman, D-Ohio. "Stop bullying children."

"House Republicans are choosing to bully and belittle trans children," argued Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif. "This is about attacking a small group of children, and it is shameful."

Holy Toledo.  203 of them want men in women's locker rooms?  Is it any surprise Harvey Weinstein was a big democrat?

Odd how the democrats don't mind transgenders bullying women in the showers and bathrooms.  Convenience amnesia like hitlery?

I thought it was Republicans who were waging a 'War on Women'.. and here they are defending natural born females against the Democrats who are backing fakes?

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Seems like the headline is all backasswards, it's the GOP defending women against transmentallyillgendered bullying. I guess all that women's lib stuff was liberal bullshiite,

Sometimes I wish Republicans would go in loaded for bear and just blast the Rats in response to their rhetoric.

Quit being nice, quit being civil. Just stab them in the eye.

I have wished that every day for the last 35 years.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
