The town's league agrees to let a disabled player play in a younger division. This is a travesty isnt it? This kid will be taking playing time away from an able-bodied person. Should the Gestapo be alerted?

So you’re in favor of boys playing in girls sports, we get it, and so bothered that’s it’s an issue that you’ve run to this board with this false equivalency?

I said about a million times I'm not in favor of boys playing for girls sports. I have also said the 5 Americans doing this is completely irrelevant.
 
This is my favorite argument from the left. "What does it matter?" "How does it affect you?" Okay....so why are you fighting for it??
Yep. If it’s a non issue then why did 258 of 260 democrats vote in favor of it?

Strategists acknowledge it’s a losing issue for Dems. So why won’t dems align with common sense americans and conservatives on this? Seems like it would be a simple and easy thing to do.

Yeah I mean they are against it and it’s only 5 cases so why are they all screaming about banning mentally ill boys and men from wanting to play in women’s sports and pretend they are females ?
 
What is a woman and why are Dems so worried about the “5%” who can’t define it?

Great question. It's strategic I guess. Moderates want them to give up this stupid transgender crusade but there are a significant number of far-left crazies that they need votes from. They are in a tough spot because no one wants it but they can't afford to lose the far-left vote.

Right. You shouldn't cast your vote because there are 5 guys playing female sports. It doesn't affect you or the nation one bit. It is probably the the stupidest vote-deciding topic this nation has ever seen. There are 330 million Americans and a just couple guys playing female sports. Its such a non-issue.

Republicans spend $132 million on idiotic (decades old) trans ads, to target 70 million dumbassed to vote against their own interest over a topic that has no bearing on their lives.

If the GOP knows anything, it's how gullible and uneducated the maga morons are today. They are such easy marks and so dimwitted that they are proud of their lack of intelligence and free thought.
 
Much of the mass right is uneducated. But much of the mass left is strategically educated. In the end, they're both dumber than hell. Which should come as a surprise to no one; most people are, in fact, dumb.

I consider the left to be the much more diabolical party at the moment, however. They are literally on a mission to deconstruct common sense and fact and rebuild and entire world to their delusional liking. Trump and company are not ideal, but you couldn't just keep letting the left go unhinged and unchecked.

I don't feel like fact checking it, so take this with a grain of salt, but I did see something about androgyny being one of the things that became much more prominent toward the end of many fallen cultures/empires. It kind of makes you wonder, because humans and societies in general tend to be pretty cyclical.

Why are you so upset about a topic that doesn’t matter? How is your life impacted with changes in presidential political parties? If you are trans, I withdraw my question. My guess is you are upset because your team lost and you are left with childish insults. Talk about a low IQ and low frequency person.

But.....it's a slippery slope. First of all, the reason to be against it is it is wrong. Doesn't right or wrong make any difference anymore? It is wrong. When does it stop? I mean growing up, how many "trans" people were there? Now, so many. It is a disease, a mental illness. There is only one mosque with American hating people, why worry? All of a sudden there is communities with Muslim elected officials who want Sharia Law. You have to get cancer before it gets out of control.

Who is upset? Simply pointing out how dumb people are for caring about a manufactured issue. You can make the same point for CRT, DEI and even the border. If you fell for this nonsense, you can't be very intelligent.

Agreed. Men in women's sports, DEI and CRT are all nonsense. Not sure why some are so dug in on these topics other than to win or lose elections.

What about disabled folks playing sports? Back to the original topic that no one is touching? Isnt this DEI? Should disabled kids be given preferential treatment in sports? I mean, I absolutely believe they should but my guess is your party doesn't believe in making accommodations for disabled kids to play sports.

He's just trying to justify the fact that the kids let him play sports with them during his younger days. 😜

You can't even denounce it. That's the problem with the Left. Even if they disagree (and maybe you don't) you will never go against Party dogma. Who's the cult now? Do you think men playing women sports is okay? Do you think exposing kids to twerking drag queens is okay? Do you think men taking kids to strip clubs are okay?

What "disabled" kids are playing regular sports? They do play, it's called Special Olympics. So....have Trans Olympics or Leagues.

A 1 arm girl in Erie is on the basketball team? Should that school lose federal funds?

Do you think autistic kids don't play youth sports? There's probably of tens of thousands autistic kids playing regular sports and that's just 1 disability. I remember one game, we had to let a kid hit during the game but didn't count the out he made. Again, I am fine with this but aren't you against this type of inclusion and accommodation?

There are no issues with inclusivity of disabled people in this country. Hell, we let Joe Biden play president.

Does that give them an advantage? I mean there are girl place kickers. Fine with that. You are smart enough to realize you are trying to create a strawman argument. There is nothing "DEI" about men competing and dominating women sports. None. It is about fairness. It would be the same as allowing a 20 year old to compete with 12 year old pee wee leagues. It is not "DEI" it is just unfair.

You know this, try and come up with a better argument or just stop it and admit its wrong. People will respect you for it.

It doesn't give them an advantage, that isn't the point. This isn't to compare it to trans athletes, which 95% of America is against. The question is should we be inclusive and allow disabled kids to play mainstream sports when they are taking playing time and roster spots away from the able-bodied? Everyone is afraid to answer but are you in favor of this type of DEI?

What's to fear? Nobody cares if you let the handicapped kid at your school play a little. The point is quotas. DEI requires a certain percentage of your team be comprised of players based on their physical traits instead of athletic ability and skill.

It's not DEI

So you are in favor of a HS team cutting a player and then allowing a severely disabled kid to dress for games and maybe get into a few at the end?

This should not surprise anyone given these clowns can’t define what a woman is

No I’m in favor of meritocracy. Why should anyone be afraid of saying. If you want to play in COMPETITIVE sports you must be able to earn a position on the team. DEI is the opposite of meritocracy where someone race is as or more important than their capability

A lame attempt to conflate letting a mentally ill MAN compete with woman

Or allowing a special needs kid the thrill of being part of a team

Now go back to the drawing board and come up with another dumb analogy we can mock

No. Just let the disabled kid hang around the team and let him play a couple times. He would not take a roster spot though.

It would be like a "make a wish" situation

The playing time he got is still in place of a kid who got cut.

What about kids with disabilities playing in a younger age division?
 
The basketball team played with disabled kids the whole second half the season and you guys wanted to fire the coach. You can’t have it both ways!

Kids love letting the gimp get some minutes. Plus, cheerleaders really fall for those virtue signals. It's a win win

You probably wouldn't notice any skill disparity in younger divisions. Those leagues exist so that one parent can give the other parent some alone time.

You realize MAGA is voting for him regardless, right?

Maybe those ads hit their mark with others who joined the trump winning coalition?

The gullible you speak of aren’t who you think they are.

They are not taking away roster spots and playing time. You are making this up. There is nothing to your argument, you aren't arguing anything. Men playing women's sports where you know men dominant is not DEI. It is an unfair advantage. Do you think then normal people should be able to participate in Special Olympics to satisfy DEI? Do you?
