"Transgender discrimination is, by its very nature, sex discrimination," Justice Laurie McKinnon wrote in the court's decision. "Government issued identification documents are necessary to access public life. When they do not accurately reflect a person's sexual identity, the transgender Montanan is prevented, based on their sex, from obtaining the same attributes of public life that a cisgender Montanan may obtain. Hence, the inability of transgender Montanans to receive government-issued identification documents accurately reflecting their gender identity is fundamentally about the nature of sex and suspect class discrimination."

"Obama didn't get elected by whining about the racists who wouldn't vote for him."
Yes he did.
It was a key moment in his campaign!
Obama was caught in an uncharacteristic moment of loose language. Referring to working-class voters in old industrial towns decimated by job losses, the presidential hopeful said: "They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."
The comments were seized on by his rival for the Democratic party candidacy, Hillary Clinton, who saw in them the hope of reviving her flagging campaign by turning voters in the important Pennsylvania primary on April 22 against what she classed as Obama's revealed "elitism".

If there was any consistency in your standards, people who aren't JeffJ might take you seriously.
But JeffJ would never dare condemn the people who brought lawn chairs to the hillside to watch civilians get bombed.

I don't know what you will do with yourselves if a deal actually gets worked out with Iran and we have peace in the middle east.

There wouldn't be peace, though, because Israel would still be ethnic cleansing Eretz Yisrael, as they have been doing since 1948.
I don't think you are capable of condemimg that ongoing war.
