Hi Steve, Please let us know when you happily move to a better, safer, country. I will help you pack and buy the tickets. No joke.
Your insulting the men and women in our armed forces and for that, you lose all respect.
@IsaiahLCarter
Privately owned businesses should be able to do whatever they want and suffer the consequences of their own actions. In my opinion if a business chose to discriminate against a certain customer, they have that
right. The public then has the right to be informed and make their
@sometherapist
Why don't you put the same judgement on the husband? Are we not involved in our children's lives or is it your blatant stereotyping and discrimination against working Mom's that stops you? Go back to 1950 and keep women pregnant and in the kitchen.
@KaeleyT
If the trans community is allowed to pick their gender, I guess we should now also be allowed to choose our race. What is the difference? BTW, I don't agree with either, just making a point.
@Terrence_STR
Holy Shit. Someone did the right thing in defense of a female. Regardless of her nationality or religion, it is still a man abusing a woman.
@KeneAkers
I am clearly not affected by all of these personally but I have listed them anyways. Also, not a Christian. Limiting myself to 6 because I could be here all day:
1. Allowing Trans (Men) women to compete in women's sports and enter women's spaces.
2. Not letting me keep my
@thinkpiecetribe
It's about time that they started treating these shoplifters as actual criminals. People are losing their small business, being attacked, and losing significant money because police have been so lax in acting.
@CarilynJohnson
How about this...Let's put our women/girls first for a change!!
1. Women/girls choose to play in the female category absent of men or former men.
2. Equality does not mean the risk of physical harm, sexual abuse, nor does it mean giving up their own spaces. This is the same as
@180Thelaw
It's the "not hurting anyone" piece that you are missing. The more men are treated like women and allowed in women's spaces and sports the less safety women have. Those are their sports and their spaces. Period.
@KeneAkers
You can't be serious. One Google search will let you know, "Today homicide is the leading cause of death among young Black men, and contributes significantly to the shortened life-span of the Black male. In about 80-90% of the cases, the Black victim was killed by another Black,
@mushycrouton
What does "white" have to do with it? Are you afraid to include POC in your judgement because your politically correct shield will break into pieces? Or are you simply showing your bigotry and prejudice against White people? And "no" I didn't call it racism against WP.
@_nomadic_soul
I think some people may be getting confused with patriarchy vs. society's expectations of men. Patriarchy does not hurt men at all. It gives us power and control (especially for religious freaks). Would you rather be with power or without it. Easy answer.
A lot of these
@ShenaeCurry
Who came up with the idea that men are the providers? It started with men being hunters. Not saying women couldn't have hunted, but they didn't. Also, not too long ago, women were not paid fair wages and men always paid for things because of the imbalance in incomes and it was

@KaeleyT
I do my absolute best to support people's faith even though I am not a believer. If it gives you comfort and makes life easier for you, then do it. However, any time any religion allows for the abuse, control, or subjugation of women or children by men it gets harder and
@IsaacHayes3
Although I am obviously white, I do see this as one of the strongest weapons that the black community has. There is a lot of income and money in the community. Organize, support black businesses, and don't do business with those who don't support you.
@TheCountessIE
@DerryNow
Yes, Yes, and Yes!!! No one is trying to ban Trans-Athletes from sports. We just don't want to see men competing against women because of the SAFETY concerns.
@genspect
Please, please, please...every coach, parent, player follow this man's lead. He is leading from the front and by example and should enjoy every accolade thrown his way. The safety of Women and Girls should be placed ahead of virtually everything else.
@ethebuilder
Nope. They signed for it, they pay it back. I do think you are putting a good idea out there but I would fear their ability and mental toughness to be a soldier.
@danieleripoll
I appreciate all of the posts and that no one is coming "at me" because I do try to learn from other people's perspective. So this is helpful.
@DerekNeverFails
Please tell me what the punishment should be for a man who gets a woman pregnant and the woman (who is in charge of her own body and healthcare) decides to have an abortion? How can you charge a man about a woman's ultimate decision?
@KeneAkers
I think the challenge is that when you post something about "white racists" (which it is very clear that you are not including everybody) and then people on the thread will say "all" or "most" white people, the conversation changes.
@redheadranting
Why are so many people arguing with

@ZachWLambert
I am not at all religious, however, who determined that an infant who cries, doesn't eat easily, or doesn't sleep without crying first is sinning? This whole conversation is ridiculous. Anyone assuming that a baby deserves discipline (which they can't even understand yet) for
@TendentiousG
Name one bill or executive order that a white president has drafted and signed in the last 40 years that is racist against black people. You can't because they don't exist. However, I can point to a few items that discriminate against white men. Prove me wrong.
@finngalkn
Hello Finn, I hope you realize two things...
Most insecure people suffer from the same issue about worrying what others think. So, once again, you are not special or alone in this.
If you spend your energy worrying about what others think, you probably should have realized

Please call their bluff and let them skip their own, once in a lifetime, commencements. They are only punishing themselves and their families.
@DeandaSharone
Not only that but prisoners across the country are forced labor for corporations and getting paid well below minimum wage. Sometimes pennies on the dollar. That also needs to be looked at. Work is good, indentured servitude is not.
@DieMadTerf
The solution, IMHO, is relatively simple. It is not the responsibility of the players to own this. In most cases you are asking a child to do what the adults in the room need to do. There is an overwhelming number of people who disagree with men/boys in women's sports and
@D_jeneration
"unforgivable"? Looks like you have a serious problem with free speech and people saying what they think. Just because someone has a different opinion than you doesn't give you the right to insult them. Keep it going bully.
@l78lancer
Hi Larry, Just so I understand, and I am voting for Trump, in what rally, speech, written document, or any other public type tool did President Trump (who, surprisingly, during the first 4 years didn't have the military shoot any citizens) make this announcement? Useless liar!
@wfyoungblood
I think the issue with your argument is that during Hanukah the Jews are free to decorate and show off their celebration so them being tolerant of Christmas shouldn't be a problem. Straight people don't get a month. So how do you compare the two?
@HorrorGorl
This is not complicated. If you put your hands on, threaten, or interfere with police they have every right to use non-deadly force. I couldn't agree with this more.
@DuncanHenry78
@DuncanHenry78
Good for you Duncan. Even as a straight, white, middle-aged man, it is clear the the Trans-Community is not only invading women's spaces and sports but is now trying to hijack all of the progress of the gay community to use as their own. T does NOT equal G.
@JMoncktonSmith
It is absolutely a problem. What should have been said is the fact that there was such an imbalance meant that the men in the room had a heavy responsibility to spread the word to, recruit, and act as an example to other men

Oh good. We now have more room at Logan for more immigrants to move in there. It's not like taking out the first round will stop the problem. There will simply be the next round filling in. This is F'ng ridiculous and sad. Where is our leadership?
@CarilynJohnson
Think about the sports piece and a trans woman competing as a woman in the Olympics representing the United States. How does that feel? Real question.
@queenie4rmnola
May I ask, do you have any solutions or do you just like naming problems? What you just stated is true for the most part in various ways. What would you do about it? What would YOU do to change it?
@Rob_ThaBuilder
I am not a progressive or a liberal but as a father, coach, and a man, I stand with you, right by your side. These are not political issues. They are SAFETY issues and any man that will not stand up to protect women and children should be embarrassed.
@Provokethoughtz
To all of these, "What if she hits you first?" posters, I beg you to read this. As men, you know damn well that you are, 99.9% of the time, bigger and stronger than a woman. In my opinion, if the average woman hits you, it is the equivalent of being struck by a 12-13 year old
@bostonherald
I hear and agree with everyone about the $$. However, we also need to focus on the fact that recently, 22 illegal immigrants who were not following the rules (criminal activity and what not) were not sent home but put in homeless shelters. AKA let out on our streets. We need
@StrikeDebt
Hi, You do realize that MOHELA is a non-profit, right? So, like the government, they don't have to care about customer service because they don't have a profit incentive. Maybe you should advocate for a capitalistic solution, create more competition, add a profit incentive, and

If you believe that everything should and must be based on a meritocracy, as I do, the anti white systemic racism is clearly a reality. Why is there affirmative action for colleges but not the NBA? Why does "diversity" always exclude white males (and don't tell me that EVERY
@QasimRashid
I really wish people would start using data from the past 40 years instead of the past 250. We have made progress and things are changing. If you ran those statistics for the 2020's they would be nowhere near those numbers. Its called progress.
@ThomasWillett9
Mr. Thomas,
If someone believes that you are the Gender you are born with (as determined by your sexual organs) and a Trans person believes that Gender is not determined by sexual organs then what we have is a difference of opinion correct?
Why is a difference of opinion,

It's not transphobic to not want to have your daughter sharing a changing room with a man with a penis and a beard who says they are female. That is the only point. Let the trans community figure out their own spaces.
@woofknight
Unfortunately for your narrative, there will always be a top 1% and a bottom 25% no matter what you do. If everyone was making $50 as a minimum wage, prices and inflation would surge making your $50 the same as the $18 (or whatever the level is).
@CarilynJohnson
Please continue to broadcast these types of arguments and events. Unfortunately, our politicians and administrators would rather give in to a very small part of the population than to protect half of the country.

Best pickup line I've heard. I didn't make it up but love it: I walk up to you at a bar. I ask, "Hi, would you like to play Barbie with me? I'll be Ken and you can be the box I come in." Rude, I know. Still funny.

You do realize that Israel will just increase it's purchases with other suppliers and Columbia just lost $165MM going into their economy. Your "This is how it's done." statement just shows that you don't understand anything about the global economy.

I'm sorry but those signs are between 80 and 100 years old. Am I saying that racism doesn't exist today? No so shut up about that. All I'm saying is that we will never progress as a society where people can coexist, communicate, and understand each other if we continue to
@DieMadTerf
We need to find a way to properly protest what is happening without today's female athletes being forced to forfeit or not compete which seems to be the only current option. The adults need to go after the administrators and politicians HARD over this.

No one said she couldn't find a guy. Many men are confident and humble enough to date any type of woman and actually gravitate to more successful women. Success has NOTHING to do with femininity.

I wish I could be the person being interviewed by our city council:

@socialiststeve6
"overthrow the 1%". Could you please define what you mean by that?

Take over their companies? You can't.

Just curious, this ended in the 18th century. Over 200 years ago, white people had slaves. Truth. How do I benefit from that today? I grew up in public housing with a family that often didn't have food to eat. Tell me, please, what assets or material things I have received.

You are 100% correct that the bond is different. Men and women are different and both have an important impact on the child. I'm not saying you're wrong. However, there are many successful people who went to daycare, were still loved by both parents, and have a good life.
