Unless the kid got access to the bathroom [I think it was] because you can't say no to someone who claims to be transgender

Probably not, just claimed to be, that's the point

and I ask again, where were the investigative reporters who, by now, should have settled all these unknowns?


Project Veritus threw out its founder on accusations of mismanagement of funds, and now has filed for bankruptcy. You lost the entire squad of investigators for the rightwing, I guess.

Do Fox News, Newsmax, Breitbart, Daily Caller, etc. not employ investigate reporters anymore?

If there was a way to demonize trans people with this story, THEY’D BE ON IT.

You actually have that backassward as usual AMS. The right are the ones trying to protect the kids from unnecessary surgery. It is being pushed on them when they are too young to make that kind of decision about permanent alteration to their bodies. Hell most parents won't even let their kids get tattoos at that age. The left is the one that is willing to throw the kids off the cliff for political reasons.

Of course it does. Your whole position is based on bullshit. Most conservatives couldn't give a s..t if someone is gay or trans just leave the kids alone and go about your business without shouting about it. You lefties turn that into all conservatives hate gays which is not even close to the truth, we just don't care, that position isn't accepted by the community because they want us to love them. There are billions of people on this planet that I don't love but I bet that you hate more people than I do.

The right’s position has nothing to do with *actually* protecting children. That’s just a cover for them to continue to be giant d-bag bigots towards the LGBT community.

So it has to be right-leaning media to do investigative reporting?

I think that shows the mindset with the Left: "Why would 'our' media do an investigative report on a guy who caused an uproar at a school board meeting, claiming his daughter got assaulted due to brand new policies unheard of till now? Surely they have been told to stay away from that story! " Even though it is imminently and obviously newsworthy. "We can count on our media to toe the line and do as their told, whew!"

That’s not what I’m getting at at all.

Maybe left-leaning media did look into it and found there was nothing there.

oh, come on, here we are trying to talk about it and we keep saying " all the so called facts are disputed". Nobody seems to know what the truth is.

well, I think you said you are kind of young, so maybe you don't remember when this didn't have to be.

Only anti-trans bigots care about this story. Still unclear what good it would do for some established reporter to fan those bigoted flames by investigating such a nothingburger.
