Lethal Injection: State That Could Become the First To Execute Transgender Woman

Missouri may be the first state to ever execute a transgender woman in the United States, unless the state’s governor grants clemency, according to reports.

Amber McLaughlin, 49, is a transgender woman and is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection Tuesday after being found guilty of killing a former girlfriend in 2003.

McLaughlin was tried as Scott McLaughlin and did not transition until after being sentenced to prison. . .

On the night of Nov. 20, 2003, Guenther’s neighbors called police after she failed to return home, AP reported.

Officers went to the office where Guenther worked and found a broken knife handle near her car and a trail of blood. The next day, McLaughlin showed police where Guenther’s body had been dumped in the Mississippi River.

Separating School Bathrooms Based on Sex Is Constitutional, Court Rules

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit ruled that separating bathrooms based on sex doesn’t violate the Constitution or Title IX, a decision with repercussions for the nationwide debate over transgender issues.

The ruling is likely to have widespread consequences in Alabama, Florida, and Georgia.

The case, Adams v. Sch. Bd. of St. Johns Cty, revolved around whether or not St. Johns County School Board in Florida violated a transgender student’s rights by prohibiting the student, a biological female who identifies as a boy, from using the boys’ bathroom at Allen D. Nease High School. The court ruled en banc that the United States has a long tradition of segregating certain spaces, such as bathrooms, on the basis of sex, without falling afoul of either the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment or Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in education. As such, the student’s rights weren’t violated.

“Separating school bathrooms based on biological sex passes constitutional muster and comports with Title IX,” Judge Barbara Lagoa, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, wrote for the court. Four judges appointed by Democrats dissented from the opinion. (Read more from “Separating School Bathrooms Based on Sex Is Constitutional, Court Rules” HERE)

World Boxing Council To Add Transgender Fighter Category

World Boxing Council president Mauricio Sulaiman has indicated that the WBC plans to develop a program in which transgender fighters compete against opponents who share the same biological sex — he is adamant that biological men should never fight against biological women.

“In boxing, a man fighting a woman must never be accepted regardless of gender change. There should be no grey area around this, and we want to go into it with transparency and the correct decisions. Woman to man or man to woman transgender change will never be allowed to fight a different gender by birth,” Sulaiman said, according to The Telegraph.

“We are creating a set of rules and structures so that transgender boxing can take place, as they fully deserve to if they want to box. We do not yet know the numbers that there are out there, but we’re opening a universal registration in 2023, so that we can understand the boxers that are out there – and we’ll start from there,” he said.

Man Who Killed Parents Over Trans Identity Marked ‘Female’ in Prison

A man who allegedly killed his family after alleged disputes about his transgender identification has been marked as a “female” in Maine prison.

Andrew Balcer, who allegedly killed his mother, father, and family dog with a knife in 2016, has been marked “female” in Maine’s prison system after being given a 40-year sentence.

One article from People Magazine, which incorrectly refers to Balcer as a woman with feminine pronouns, explains that his defense attorney argued that Balcer allegedly committed the double murder when the parents would not accept his gender identity.

The article cites his defense attorney, who remarked “what she did was in response to her parents’ rejection of her transgendered status.” Balcer allegedly stabbed his mother nine times and his dad 13 times before letting his older brother escape, the article explains. . .

Now, Balcer has been marked as “female” in Maine’s prison system, Reduxx reports. Though he was first recorded as a male, he is now marked as a female inmate, indicating that the alleged killer may be housed with female inmates. He is also described as six-foot-one and 245 pounds.

Transgender Student Charged for Alleged Violent Assault of Two Girls in School Bathroom

A transgender high school student has been charged after allegedly assaulting two female students in the girls bathroom at an Oklahoma high school, leaving them with injuries.

The alleged incident occurred on October 26 at Edmond Memorial High School, just north of Oklahoma City, according to the police report, which was obtained by the feminist outlet Reduxx.

A police officer responded to the school at around 8 a.m. to reports of a fight. He found a female student in the nurse’s office who had suffered injuries to her face and head, including “several red areas” on her face. Both of her eyes were starting to swell up, the officer noted in the report.

The trans-identifying student, a biological male, reportedly approached one of the girls in the bathroom while she was speaking with friends and attempted to talk to her, but she ignored him. He then became angry and approached her with balled fists, asking if she “wanted to fight,” according to the report.

The student then allegedly hit the female victim in the face, pulled her hair, and forced her to the ground where he kicked her in the face and punched her repeatedly. The girl indicated to police that the attack was forceful enough to prevent her from fighting back.

What Is a Woman? Dictionary.com Announces Its 2022 Word of the Year

As the proponents of radical leftist gender ideology wage a struggle to supplant truth with inane gender-bending dogmas that defy reality, Dictionary.com has announced “woman” as its 2022 word of the year.

The website noted that the largest spike in searches for the definition of “woman” this year occurred after GOP Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee asked Ketanji Brown Jackson to define the word during a confirmation hearing on Jackson’s nomination to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.

Jackson infamously declined to provide a definition for the word “woman” and noted that she is not a biologist. She was ultimately confirmed and is currently serving as one of the high court’s nine justices.

The first definition that dictionary.com lists for the word is simply “an adult female person.” (Read more from “What Is a Woman? Dictionary.com Announces Its 2022 Word of the Year” HERE)

The Trans Movement Has Resulted in Biological Males Beating Women in Their Own Sports

Biological men in America and internationally are still competing against and beating women in their own athletics.

With lawsuits on behalf of female competitors as well as transgender athletes in courts across the country, the number of biological males competing against women continues to grow.

Male-to-female athlete Cece Telfer was recently rewarded for “pioneering actions” in the sport of track and field, having won a national championship in 400m hurdles in 2019, as reported by The Daily Caller.

Tifanny Abreu, a 6’4 transgender woman who once was pictured on the cover of a magazine with the headline “one of the guys” is a Brazilian volleyball player in the women’s top league, Superliga Women. Abreu was also given an award in 2021 for being “a winner on the floor and a force for the community off of it.” . . .

Looking back, Lia Thomas made international news when the male competed in women’s NCAA swimming, breaking several records along the way. (Read more from “The Trans Movement Has Resulted in Biological Males Beating Women in Their Own Sports” HERE)

School Fired Teacher Who Refused To Use Preferred Pronouns

An Ohio middle school teacher sued her school district Monday, accusing the district of violating her First Amendment rights after she was abruptly fired for refusing to affirm students’ stated gender identity or use their preferred pronouns.

In a lawsuit filed Monday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Vivian Geraghty, a former teacher at Jackson Memorial Middle School in Massillon, Ohio, accused administrators at the school and Jackson Local Schools of violating her right to freedom of speech and free exercise of religion when they fired her earlier this year for refusing to address two students who had claimed to have new gender identities by their preferred pronouns and names.

The lawsuit says Geraghty, who is represented by the conservative legal group the Alliance Defending Freedom, was informed on Aug. 16 that two of her students wished to be addressed by new names and pronouns that did not correspond to their sex. Six days later, on Aug. 22, the school counselor directed Geraghty and other teachers to “participate in the social transition of the two students.” . . .

Carter allegedly informed Geraghty at that meeting that he avoided using pronouns whenever a student sought to be addressed by pronouns that did not correspond to their biological sex. But half an hour later, Geraghty was again summoned to Carter’s office, where she was asked by Carter and Monica Myers, the director of curriculum, instruction, and assessment for Jackson Local School District, to explain her Christian religious beliefs and why she could not cooperate with the social transition of the two students.

“After Ms. Geraghty explained her beliefs … Defendants Carter and Myers told Ms. Geraghty that ‘she would be required to put her beliefs aside as a public servant,'” the lawsuit says. “Ms. Geraghty explained that she could not put her beliefs aside, and she did not believe she could be compelled to do so as a condition of public service.” (Read more from “School Fired Teacher Who Refused To Use Preferred Pronouns” HERE)

Public Schools Tell Fourth Graders To Write Letter Giving Advice to Trans Kid

Seattle Public Schools (SPS) published a lesson plan instructing fourth graders to write a letter giving advice to a child who knew he was a girl “from the time she was two years old.”

The lesson plan from SPS is part of their “K-5 Gender Book Kit,” which allegedly offers “age-appropriate lessons that align with the Washington State Health Education standards related to self-identity.”

One plan, intended for fourth grade students, centered around the book “I am Jazz,” which is about a child who identifies as transgender. The book’s description reads “From the time she was two years old, Jazz knew that she had a girl’s brain in a boy’s body.”

The corresponding lesson plan says that “by the end of the lesson” the fourth graders will “define transgender and explore an example of gender identity.”

The lesson also has a “writing activity” portion, where students are told to “write a letter to Jazz telling her what you think she should do.” Children are asked, for example, “should she continue to wear girls’ clothes because that’s what makes her comfortable or wear boys’ clothes because that’s what society expects?” (Read more from “Public Schools Tell Fourth Graders To Write Letter Giving Advice to Trans Kid” HERE)

Retired Navy Seal Who Came Out as Trans Announces Detransition: ‘Destroyed My Life’

A retired Navy SEAL who became famous nearly 10 years ago after coming out as transgender announced he is detransitioning and called on Americans to “wake up” about how transgender health services are hurting children.

“Everything you see on CNN with my face, do not even believe a word of it,” Chris Beck, formerly known as Kristin Beck, told conservative influencer Robby Starbuck in an interview published earlier this month. “Everything that happened to me for the last ten years destroyed my life. I destroyed my life. I’m not a victim. I did this to myself, but I had help.”

“I take full responsibility,” he continued. “I went on CNN and everything else, and that’s why I’m here right now, I’m trying to correct that.” . . .

Beck served in the US Navy for 20 years, including on SEAL Team Six. He was deployed 13 times and received more than 50 medals and ribbons for his service.

Beck said he’s speaking out about transgenderism to protect children in the current political climate, where there are gender clinics “over all of America.”
