Transgenders Allowed to Join Military Eligible for Free Sex-Change Surgery

January 1, 2018 Breitbart 1

Allowing transgenders to join the military is contrary to a directive from the Commander-in-Chief President Trump. The Trump administration appealed Judge Kollar-Kitelly’s decision but was rejected. Few transgenders can afford the $100,000 sex-change surgery. Making it free in the military is an incentive for transgenders to enlist. Because of this, the military eventually may have the highest proportion of transgenders of any ‘professional’ group in the country. [It is unknown what effect this will have on the fighting spirit of the US military.]

Bakers Who Refused to Make Gay Cake Found Guilty of Discrimination

January 1, 2018 InfoWars 4

The bakers had to pay a $135K fine for ’emotional damage’ and lost their business. The Christian couple’s attorneys argued in favor of the First Amendment in refusing to make the cake, while the lesbian couple argued that all people should be treated equally under the law. [What part of the Constitution or logic says that a free people should be forced against their will to perform services for anyone who demands it? Forget ‘religious reasons” and forget ‘freedom of speech”. If you do not like my face, or body odor, or life style, or vulgar language or anything else, why should you be compelled by law to associate with me and serve my demands? This is not the proper function of the state. See The Creed of Freedom.]
