I may be crazy, but I simply don't understand why anyone would give a shit what someone else does with their own body? Are you that bored?

The other day, I was mowing my lawn, and my neighbor came out, and his hair was styled differently than it was before. I ran inside and grabbed my gun, because there is no way I would stand for that. That motherfucker thinks he can just change something about himself and face no consequences.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


"CSIS assesses that exposure to groups and individuals espousing anti-gender extremist rhetoric could inspire and encourage serious violence against the 2SLGBTQI+ community, or against those who are viewed as supporters of pro-gender ideology policies and events," he said.

ITAC, made up of intelligence authorities, is set up to keep tabs on threat actors' intentions and capabilities and to review classified and open-source information to estimate the likelihood of a terrorist attack in Canada.

"Anti-2SLGBTQl+ narratives remain a common theme in violent rhetoric espoused by white nationalists, neo-Nazis, the Freedom Movement, and networks such as Diagolon and QAnon."

The issue most recently reared its head in Alberta, where Premier Danielle Smith announced plans to implement a suite of policies affecting transgender and non-binary youth and adults.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has suggested Smith's proposals will aggravate mental health issues and suicidal ideation among young people struggling with gender dysphoria.

Advocates for transgender youth have threatened legal action, while the head of the Alberta-based Parents for Choice in Education group called the announcement "reasonable" but said the organization wants to see Smith go further.
