Republicans' war on transgender people: Omnibus thread

Utah official accuses 16-year old female athlete is transgender but when called on her nonsense, she actually blames the Transgender community.

A Utah state school board member is facing widespread condemnation and calls to resign after she shared a post on social media that appeared to suggest a 16-year-old girl on her school’s basketball team is transgender.

Natalie Cline, a member of the Utah State Board of Education, posted earlier this week on Facebook a flier for a high school girls’ basketball team in Salt Lake County, suggestively writing: “Girls’ basketball…” The post has since been deleted.

Cline apologized on Facebook on Wednesday, acknowledging that her post created a “firestorm” around the teenager and that “derogatory comments about the player were made.”

She also defended her intent saying that the girl “does have a larger build, like her parents,” and did not suggest she would resign.

“We live in strange times when it is normal to pause and wonder if people are what they say they are because of the push to normalize transgenderism in our society,” she wrote on Facebook.

Did you catch that? It’s the Transgender community’s fault for creating the strange times in which we live that normalizes Cline’s stunt. Absolutely shitty “apology”.

She should resign

And, yes, I did search to see what party she cleaved to. That’s why this post is in this thread.
