    If it were possible to prove it was 'suicide by cop' I'd have no problem other than it will be on the conscience for years to come of the cop who did it. Self-determination is the ultimate human right, so she was perfectly entitled to end her life, but there are ways of doing it which don't involved a second party, so she should have chosen one.

    I'm totally confused by it all; first it was 'gays and lesbians', then it was 'LGBT', then 'LGBTQ' and now it's LGBTQI. **** knows what the 'I' stands for! And before someone enlightens me - I don't want to know!

    The target was approaching at a speed of around one foot per second and the target area of the legs was not moving since he was approaching directly at the officer who shot him hence the target is effectively stationary. Someone that nervous should never have shot in the first place given that there were three other officers there too.

    Regarding the banner ads, I'm guessing that you had previously googled something related to pocket knives since I believe ads vary on user google searches. In my case, no ads show up as I have banners turned off

    The source is fine. However you wish to classify gender, it doesn't change the biology. When you disagree with your factual biology, you have a mental problem as the link reaffirmed.

    In the end Gender is not a real thing, biological facts are. You cannot be a Male Girl etc.

    I do go to the range. I also have conceal carry.

    Many times, the offender is not killed or even shot, when police handle situations such as this.

    If the video of this shooting is valid, in hindsight, the police could have handled this better.

    No, he is a mutilated man, despite what transgender dogma might say.

    [quote[Meaning any dude with a bigger penis than you is LITERALLY more of a man -- more male -- than you.[/QUOTE]

    No. Gender is binary, not a continuum, despite what transgender dogma might say.

    Some people with chromosomes XXY have a vagina, a uterus, one ovary, one testicle, have monthly periods and have a fully functioning penis

    Back to pretending the defect of being born Intersex or Klinefelters Syndrome is something in common with all transgenders again? It isn't. intersex or Klinefelters is a birth defect, in a ridiculously small segment of the population.

    Are you going to pretend that all these Transgenders, and people like the OP have this? Or just trying to lay down a smokescreen?

    An Extremely (infinitesimally) RARE genetic mutation.

    But, in a world of over 6 billion people, such individuals do exist.

    Extremely rare, yet people try and toss this up as if it applies to all these nutcases who just decide to identify as something they aren't. Genetic defects certainly do happen...so does plain old mental illness.

    You. Literally. Just. Quoted. An. Example.

    If you actually take the time to read that thread, you'll see that I specifically state I don't credit Obama or his policies for that growth. Nice try, though.

    Either facts or important or defending Byrd based on the facts is "a purely liberal move." Which is it? Make up your mind.

    I've already addressed that link. Your blog is misrepresenting those links. You and the blog writer are trying to pretend this means that the mental health issues are inherent to being transgender, rather than do to environment. I've already posted research indicating that it is the environment.

    Not according to wikipedia. Perhaps you are thinking of some other condition.

    Great point.

    It isn't like 20 people on any random street corner have this extremely rare mutation.

    True, but that would have required the police officer to back up 27 yards. A beanbag shotgun is very effective at close range and relatively inexpensive.

    Then it should be easy for you. Post a quote you said that supports what you are claiming.

    Then prove it. I'm not going to defend your claims. Let's see your evidence. See this is when you run away.

    Nothing has changed. Facts are important and when you leave them out like you did in Byrd's case by pretending his words make up for his clansman ties you make my point once again.

    Then. Prove. It.

    Your word means nothing without proof. I challenge you to prove what you are claiming but every time I've challenged you and quoted where you are dead wrong, you've run away.

    Oh so now you are changing your argument. What a surprise. First you denied they even had multiple mental issues like high suicide rates. So now its the environment they grow up in not themselves to blame. LOL Another shot at taking personal accountability. Why am I not surprised?

    And you can prove this right? Wait, what am I saying? You haven't proved a word you've claimed so far so why change now?

    Going to post your evidence or just prove me right once again that you are unable to?

    Stop expecting rational behavior from men who think they are women
