[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who has followed this from the beginning, I didn’t learn anything new. Well except Ziegler’s nail polish. [/quote]

I did. The sections where Scott Smith and the Ian Prior types knew the perp wasn’t transgender or even gender fluid but persisted in promoting that lie were illuminating.

As was the irony that Smith’s behavior at the school actually impeded the investigation into his daughter’s assault. That is a salient detail. [/quote]
The article basically says that it is important that this girl was raped by a remote-diagnosed pansexual person and not by a remote-diagnosed "gender fluid" or transsexual person, and that makes Ziegler's and the democratic administration's conduct in this case somehow ok.  This reminds me a bit of the 1990's when Clinton liberals explained to us that receiving oral sex doesn't count as adultery, and therefore Clinton didn't lie, and we just don't get the "salient" difference.

But it does matter.  A lot.  The rapist wasn’t in the bathroom because he was trans, he was in there because he was hooking up with a girl.  He then took it too far and raped her.

The Times gets the story right.  The conservative movement was stymied because they couldn’t actually point to trans access to bathrooms as a problem because there were no good assault cases to use in the arguments.  They jumped on this one immediately because the story about the skirt got out.  By the time the truth came out (not trans, students in a prior relationship) it was too late.[/quote]

I thought the implication was also that LCPS covered up the crime initially because they thought the boy was trans and wanted to avoid criticism for the bathroom policy? Also how is the prior relationship relevant?? The boy was convicted of rape.

I feel like the NYTimes story missed the mark - the question is how did the boy not get intervention earlier and why was he allowed to attend a mainstreamed program after the first rape?[/quote]

Because the incompetent sheriff’s office initially said there was no assault and didn’t file any charges.

And Mike Chapman wants to be re-elected. What a joke.

The right-wing morons running the Loudoun county sheriff’s office are the missed story in all of this. [/quote]
