Cops Refuse to Release Gender of Suspects in Transgender Brawl for Fear of Getting it ‘Wrong’ 2017-11-01T12:09:31-06:00 Mark Meckler

It’s tough be to a cop these days. Now they have to worry about what should be a very basic observation — whether a suspect or victim is a male or female. The Telegraph reports about a recent incident, in which — I think — a 60 year old woman was punched in the face by men-presenting-as-women. Though, honestly, I’ve read the news article about it several times and I still don’t know:
Police have refused to reveal the gender of two people suspected of punching a 60-year-old woman in the face during a brawl at a transgender event in case they get it wrong.
Scotland Yard, apparently concerned about a potential backlash, said it was “a grey area” and dependant on how the suspects describe themselves.
“We have to be very careful,” she said. “We are not going to commit ourselves to something because I’m afraid it’s not black and white.”
Read it for yourself and see if you can figure it out. What happened to whom? My best guess is that some people of unknown gender were holding a meeting about gender, when some other people of unknown gender attacked them because of their position on gender, which was not agreeable to the gender attackers of unknown gender. Got that?
Is this trannies beating up a non-tranny granny? I just can’t tell… But if that is what happened, the Telegraph missed out on perhaps the best headline of all time: “Trannies Beat Non-Tranny Granny for Having Wrong Opinion on Trannies.”
This is the most telling line from the piece:
“Then a tall, male-bodied, hooded figure wearing makeup rushed over, hit her several times and as police arrived, ran away. I asked a young activist if she was OK with men smacking women: ‘It’s not a guy, you’re a piece of s— and I’m happy they hit her,’ came the reply.”
So, apparently, it’s okay for a man to beat a woman, as long as the beater identifies as a woman. Feminists and other liberals, this is what you have wrought.
