http://www.onenewsnow.com/Culture/Default.aspx?id=1275460A Christian attorney and pro-family activist says the controversy surrounding a "transgender" student in Texas is a perfect example of what can be expected when the full weight of the new LGBT law is implemented in the military.
Fox News recently reported on the uneasiness among a group of female students at Southwest Texas Junior College when they learned that a 51-year-old man who underwent a supposed sex change wanted to move into their dormitory. The female students said they were afraid because their potential dorm-mate is built like a man and can overpower any of them. On Friday, the school issued a news release saying it has denied his request to live on campus.
Matt Barber, director of cultural affairs at Liberty Counsel, says the reaction by the other students in the dorm should be expected.
Matt Barber"The natural and to-be-expected reaction from any reasonable person looking at this situation should be that this guy is creepy," Barber says bluntly. "It is perfectly understandable that these young women are frightened. [It] just boggles the mind."
Barber contends this situation illustrates why it was irresponsible for the lame-duck 111th Congress to repeal the military's homosexual exclusion law last month. "This really is a microcosm of the kinds of situations we can expect going forward as the LGBT [lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender] movement makes the kinds of gains they're making under this Obama administration," he laments.
On a more positive note, Barber is encouraged that potential 2012 GOP presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty, the former governor of Minnesota, recently said he would sign a bill to repeal the repeal -- and he is hopeful other Republican hopefuls will make a similar pledge.
