    Yes, 1% of a million people is still 10,000 people.

    Also, don't say something like "don't we have an obligation to protect even 10,000 people?" because you're not saying we should give free housing to the homeless out of an obligation to protect them. Fuck off with this bad faith horseshit.

    Sure, if a sport feels the need to split divisions that way they should be able to do so. If they feel that's best for the sport. Different tournaments go by age, or grade, or skill level.

    If it's too convoluted people will choose not to participate.

    Any time there is a choice there is a chance for regret. Most animals don't regret, they have no choice but to follow instincts. Slaves can't regret, they have no choices. I have certainly made mistakes I regret but still better than not having a choice.

    Yam, I imagine you feel your words are falling on virtual equivalent of deaf ears. And the bigots don't care how truthful or heartfelt your comments. But I know and you probably do as well, there are always lurkers on boards who rarely if ever post. And they can learn. Keep speaking your truth, my sister.

    If Yam wants cookies she need only ask. She can come to my Thanksgiving dinner if she wants.

    Just your daily reminder that there are people in power who want trans children to starve.

    GOP senator considering blocking school meal funding deal over transgender policy fight

    A Republican senator is thinking about blowing up a bipartisan deal to extend school meals funding because of a Biden administration policy banning discrimination against LGBTQ students who participate in lunch programs that receive the money.

    Democratic leaders are rushing to pass the legislation and get it to President Joe Biden’s desk before current funding runs out June 30, triggering a hunger cliff for millions of children. Senate Republican leaders, who blocked previous attempts at a year-long extension of the funds, haven’t made any threats to tank the bill this time around, according to three people involved in the talks. But any one senator can object and block the expedited effort, requiring a recorded floor vote and eating up precious time.

    After the $3 billion deal to extend the pandemic-era program was unveiled Tuesday, Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) said in an interview he is “contemplating” objecting to the measure because of new guidance from the Agriculture Department banning LGBTQ discrimination in any program that receives federal nutrition money, which includes most school lunch programs.

    Marshall was among a handful of Senate Republicans who sent a letterto the Government Accountability Office last week objecting to the USDA nutrition guidance, which has also prompted a backlash from conservative media and key national Republicans. Likely 2024 presidential contender and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis argued the Biden administration was “trying to deny school lunch programs for states that don't do transgender ideology in the schools.”

    "I cheer for homophobic lawmakers and politicians that want to punish you and strip away your civil rights but hey, you'd probably really like me!"

    green font is different from a personal insult but I'm not playing when I point out in your "problems with transgendered" thread that you just cheered for a huge step back for civil rights...but you can say whatever...personally disgusting is how I feel about your topic and how you try to sanitize it with Martha Stewart phrases. play with some of that.
