Parents of second & third place girls file complaint against winner claiming she’s transgender
All these anti-trans bills that allowed the inspection of kid’s genitals if they are suspected of being trans. What is the justification for mislabeling them? They are better than their peers, they have natural gifts that make them better. This is why the trans women in women sports are stealing the right wins from women is so stupid. What now separating out the ones taller as unfair, separating out the stronger ones as unfair. See how idiotic this has become. All because of bigotry and hate. Hugs

David Spatafore of the Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA) is in charge of enforcing the state’s new ban on transgender girls participating in school sports as their gender. While he wouldn’t reveal the sport she played or the school she attended in order to protect her privacy, he said that he was forced to investigate her gender after the parents of two losing student-athletes complained.
He said that he also received some other complaints about her, including one that said, “That female athlete doesn’t look feminine enough.”
“The school went back to kindergarten and she’d always been a female,” Spatafore said.
LGBTQ advocates have been warning for years that transgender sports bans could be used by the families of losing student-athletes to attack winners. Some states, like Idaho, require genital examinations in their sports bans. Such requirements would have subjected the student under investigation to an unnecessary and invasive examination.
Utah passed its transgender sports ban earlier this year and this case is one of the first to test the law. Spatafore said that school records are enough to satisfy the law’s requirements “because if all of the questions about eligibility were answered by the school or the feeder system schools, there was no reason to make it a personal situation with a family or that athlete.”
Spatafore said that UHSAA is trying to follow the new ban.
“Quite frankly, this is new ground for us,” he told the Deseret News. “I’m not going to say that we have it down pat, because I have no clue. I don’t think any of us in the office have a clue if we have it down pat. What we want to do is we just want to try to do our job.”
The state legislature passed H.B. 11, the transgender sports ban, earlier this year. In March, Gov. Spencer Cox (R) vetoed the bill, saying that it “will likely bankrupt the Utah High School Athletic Association and result in millions of dollars in legal fees for local school districts.” The legislature overrode his veto.
In June, the families of two transgender girls in the state filed a lawsuit challenging the sports ban, arguing that the bill was “based on unfounded stereotypes, fears, and misconceptions about girls who are transgender. It is not supported by medical or scientific evidence.”
Trolls swatted trans streamer in terrifying episode. She went into hiding but they found her again.
This is what the anti-trans rhetoric creates. A culture where harming LGBTQ+ is done for fun, again to make them shut up and go away. Decades of working for tolerance and acceptance are being wiped out by the open racism and bigotry of the republicans and the rabid right thugs. I watched the video she did on this and her treatment by the police was horrifying. She woke up with guns in her face, she was arrested, booked under her dead name, the police were horribly anti-trans and homophobic. Hugs

Weeks after online trolls sent police to her door on false pretenses, popular transgender Twitch streamer and activist Clara Sorrenti was once again doxed.
Earlier this month, Sorrenti, who goes by the name Keffals on social media, was the victim of a tactic known as “swatting.” Police raided her London, Ontario home and arrested her after someone using her deadname reportedly sent violent threats to local city hall officials. She was released without charges and later cleared of all wrongdoing. London police chief Steve Williams said that he will review how officers treated Sorrenti, who says she was consistently addressed with her deadname, which is not her legal name.
After going public with the story, Sorrenti moved out of her apartment and into a hotel. But that location has also been compromised.
“The hotel I was staying at got doxed so I had to move hotels,” Sorrenti told Canada’s Global News. “Five different pizza companies sent pizzas to my hotel room in my (birth) name. Obviously, the pizza itself isn’t the problem. It’s the threat they send by telling me they know where I live and are willing to act on it in the real world.”
Sorrenti, who was a Communist Party candidate in Canada’s 2019 federal election and frequently posts about trans issues on her Twitch channel, has been the target of relentless anti-transgender harassment. In July, Twitch banned Sorrenti from the platform after a stream she was doing highlighting examples of the hateful abuse she receives was mass reported by trolls.
Sorrenti speculates that online trolls may have managed to find her using a photo she posted of her fiancée’s cat on their hotel bed following the swatting ordeal.
“The people who have been harassing me [must have] spent hours looking at the bedsheets, cross-referencing them with every hotel in my city until they found a match,” she said.
London Police Service is investigating both the swatting and doxing.
“We’re concerned,” deputy police chief Trish McIntyre said. “It’s harassment. Is it police’s responsibility to investigate those occurrences? One hundred percent. We’re aware of them, they’re under investigation.”
Republican Party official posts image of KKK hoods on social media

Photo: ShutterstockThe Republican Party of Lawrence County, Alabama recently posted an image on its Facebook account containing white hoods associated with the Ku Klux Klan (KKK), a white supremacist terrorism organization.
The image — which showed the silhouette of a roaring elephant, the Republican Party mascot — was posted alongside a message thanking the former county party chairman for his “countless hours leading the local GOP to represent your conservative values.”
However, the white triangles between the elephant’s legs had eye holes added to them, giving them the image of the white hoods that KKK members wear during their rallies to stay anonymous while striking fear in the hearts of non-white people.
The image was an original piece of art created in 2020 by the left-leaning political publication Mother Jones for an article discussing racism in the Republican Party. The article’s headline was “The Republican Party Is Racist and Soulless. Just Ask This Veteran GOP Strategist.” Its tagline read, “Stuart Stevens says he now realizes the hatred and bigotry of Trumpism were always at the heart of the GOP.”
The Lawrence County Republican Party removed the image from its Facebook page and its chairwoman Shanon Terry said that the image was found during a Google search and was “immediately replaced” once the party realized that it contained KKK imagery.
“I would like to offer a deep and sincere apology for a picture that temporarily appeared on this page last night,” Terry wrote in a public apology. “A google search picture of a GOP elephant was used and later found to have hidden images that do not represent the views or beliefs of the Lawrence County Republican Party. As chairman, I take full responsibility for the error.”
In response to the party’s use of the image, Black Alabama state Rep. Anthony Daniels (D) published a tweet showing the party’s use of the image. Daniels wrote, “Shame on the Lawrence County Republican Party for this disgusting image.”
However, Terry said she would not be resigning as the county party’s chairperson over the incident.
“I regret the mistake that was made, and it was just that – an unintended mistake,” Terry wrote in a statement to WHNT. “The image posted by me on a political Facebook page was not done with any malicious or harmful intent…. My error was rushing to post a thank you note to the outgoing chairperson, in doing so I did not properly review a cut and paste image…. I do not support or agree with any hate group agenda and certainly would not try to further their cause.”
The Republican Party has long used racist anger against non-white people excite its mostly white voting base. This has included using language against “inner city crime,” “welfare cheats,” and “immigrants” as dog whistles against poorer and non-white people. The former President Donald Trump also encouraged such racist views by praising white supremacist organizations and associated groups who supported him.
The Lawrence County NAACP has announced that it will hold a press conference about the image on Friday.
Fox host outraged that school district pulled the Bible from shelves in book challenge
Please note she was offended that a few people could get a book she liked removed but feels it is fine if one person’s complaints get LGBTQ+ books removed. Please take note of the last paragraph, they now want to push their ideology of white supremacy and other hatreds in libraries and schools. Hugs
Photo: YouTube screenshotFox News hosts have expressed outrage over the Bible being removed from school library shelves in a Texas school district, claiming that the book should be allowed, even though it contains stories of incest and violence and promotes slavery, the subjugation of women, and the murder of LGBTQ people.
The Fox News panel also said that banning the Bible from schools furthers a Democratic plot, even though the school district’s home county traditionally votes Republican.
The Christian religious text was removed by the Keller Independent School District’s Book Challenge Committee this week because it was challenged for having “sexual content and violence” along with 40 other books, most of which featured Black and LGBTQ characters. The district’s school principals were told to keep the books off of library shelves until the district has completed its review of each book’s appropriateness for student readers.
Moms for Liberty activist wants LGBTQ students separated into special classes
Told you this was coming. It is all about driving public opinion that there is something wrong and bad about LGBTQ+ people / kids. They should be around normal good kids. Drive them back into hiding. Regress the country to the 1950s. This was not about teacher talking students into be gay or trans. It was about demonizing and attacking the gay and trans kids. Hugs
Crystal Alonso of Moms for LibertyPhoto: ScreenshotAn anti-LGBTQ Moms for Liberty activist told MSNBC that she believes LGBTQ students should have separate classes from straight and cisgender students in schools.
Field Report with Paola Ramos aired last week and discussed the rightward movement among Latino voters, especially in Florida. Ramos met with a group of Moms for Liberty activists.
Moms for Liberty gained notoriety during the pandemic as they attended and protested school board meetings to oppose mask mandates and LGBTQ inclusivity in schools. The group’s past exploits include offering bounties for people who turn in teachers who discuss “divisive topics,” attacking the Trevor Project for trying to prevent LGBTQ teen suicide, trying to get a book about seahorses banned for being too sexy, and saying that two girls briefly kissing at a school function is “lewd” and “traumatic.” The group lobbied in Florida for the Don’t Say Gay bill.
