Not using transgender pronouns could get you fined

https://nypost.com/2016/05/19/city-issues-new-guidelines-on-transgender-pronouns/

"The city insisted that accidentally misusing a transgender person’s preferred pronoun is not against the law and would not be subject to a fine.

The updated regulations are meant to address “situations in which individuals intentionally and repeatedly target transgender and gender non-conforming people with this type of harassment,” Commission spokesman Seth Hoy told the Post Thursday."

Left out the harassment part. Or course you guys like to harass gays, I can see why you would be upset with that. Laws need to be passed because you didn't learn to be decent to people different from you.

For you:
"Are you talking about that pray the gay away type nonsense? Are you one of those people that think it's a choice and you're not born that way?"

Has a sitting president ever hired foreign agents to try to discredit American officials and subsequently discredit an international deal that was made?

I don't a recall a sitting president ever being the target of the CIA either. Well, not since JFK - and that didn't turn out so well.

I don’t believe there’s any evidence if the CIA “targeting” a sitting president, but if they are, perhaps there’s good reason?

Members of the CIA take an oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.“

Do you actually believe this story? No doubts, questions about the author or their motives?

Story is reprinted "the Observer can reveal", Sources are "trump aids".. just as we learn Kerry is running a secret campaign to save the Iran deal.

Liberals will eat a mountain of shit if you put Trump's name on it.

Just to be clear -
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-northkorea-southkorea/north-korea-says-denuclearization-pledge-not-result-of-u-s-led-sanctions-idUSKBN1I703M

The North’s official KCNA news agency said Washington was “misleading public opinion” by claiming the denuclearization pledge was the result of sanctions and other pressure.

The United States should not “deliberately provoke” the North by moving to deploy strategic assets in South Korea and raising human rights issues, KCNA said, citing a foreign ministry spokesman.

“This act cannot be construed otherwise than a dangerous attempt to ruin the hardly-won atmosphere of dialogue and bring the situation back to square one,” the spokesman was quoted as saying.​

The two Koreas own this. The agreement is the result of NK and SK playing nice, and probably pressure from Russia and China. Trump is last to the table, the meeting with Kim is a largely token gesture that mainly benefits NK by elevating Kim to the status of a world leader.

Trump brings communist and democrats together again.

I'll take the word of the President of South Korea over the opinion of a communist journalist.

Members of the CIA take an oath

People who lie for a living (that's what spies do) being bound by an oath. Let that sink in.

 

[Kate]

Lying under oath is perjury. But it's no big deal if you are director of NSA or DNI though.
And we have a compulsive liar in office, probably can't tell reality from fantasy and doesn't think he's lying at all. But when you're lying, at least try to be consistent. Being a good liar is not that easy, because you need a good memory.

I think there is an exception for Gov officials when lying to protect state secrets. That is how thy get around accountability.

This law isn't about post op transgenders, it's about fluid gender identity and made up pronouns. It's not harassment to insist on using Male or Female on a legal document.

Thanks for proving my point. Insanity has replace science and reason in the progressive movement and your values have eroded to calling people who speak the truth, hateful.

Right on schedule, SPLC calls Americans celebrating Cinco De Mayo racist.

The modern progressive movement:
Using He and She for male and female is harassment, drinking DOS XX on May 5th is racist.

How are we supposed to take these people seriously?

Real people with real jobs and real lives and fully functioning brains laugh at "cultural appropriation" backlash!
It's so ridiculous! I'm part Irish and if you want to parade around on March 17th with a green shirt on that says, "Irish for a Day" or a kilt and drink green beer, Guinness, Bushmills, Jameson and pack my favorite pub so i can't get to the bar, I say to you, "Welcome, Cheers, now excuse me so i can get me one of those!"
The World is losing it's sanity!
