gender confusion smallHomosexual activists are trying to stop the residents of one Maryland county from voting on a controversial "gender identity" bill.

 

 

After the Montgomery County, Maryland, council enacted the ordinance, local residents began collecting petition signatures to hold a referendum on the issue. Austin R. Nimocks, senior legal counsel with the Alliance Defense Fund (ADF), says it was easy for supporters of the referendum to get more than enough signatures just by explaining what the ordinance does.
 
"This bill allows individuals to self-identify whether you're a man or a woman without any regard to what your biological sex is -- and this runs counter to American cultural interests. The people of Montgomery County are not in favor of this," Nimocks explains.
 
Petitions collected by the Maryland Coalition for Responsible Government were submitted to the Montgomery County Board of Elections, and the referendum was certified for the November 4 ballot. But Nimocks says there are some people who obviously fear the results of that vote.
 
"They collected signatures to put the matter on the ballot and, now, the homosexual political special-interest groups in Maryland are trying to remove this matter from the November ballot," Nimocks contends.
 
In a lawsuit against the county election board, an un-named group of homosexuals and transsexuals is asking the board to decertify the referendum petitions, even though the group missed the deadline to challenge the initiative.
 
"It just shows the lengths to which folks will go to remove the voice of the people from the democratic process," the ADF attorney says. "They had a specific time in which they needed to bring their lawsuit. They brought it well after that time expired. And we're asking the court to dismiss the lawsuit, not only because the people have a right to vote and determine what their law is, but [also] because this lawsuit was brought well after the time required for them to bring it," Nimocks points out.
 
ADF has filed a friend-of-the-court brief arguing against the challenge.

this stupidity never stops, isn't it?

Those guys have a problem identifying their own sex, a skill that even a 5 years old kid can do without problem.

Kmcheng, I love the way you state the fact that even a five year old can identify their gender.  These people are a pain in the bu** and need to be put in their place.  Normal people don't stick it in their faces all the time.  I'm becoming revolted by all of this garbage.  Why can't they just move on with their lives and keep it out of the public's eyes?  Sick - sick - sick!

Maryland has problems with gender identity.  I remember a few years ago when the school board wanted to start teaching the children about homosexuality.  I wrote their school board and said "You can teach my children about homosexuality when 2 men or 2 women can procreate"  My children, and all other children, come from a man and a woman.  Homosexuals should have their own children to teach and leave mine alone.  Maybe we should start singing "I'm a heterosexual and I'm okay....If I lived in Maryland, I would choose to be a Peacock!  They seem to be pretty open-minded there....I think the real cause behind all this sexual confusion is based on too much open-mouthed kissing on television.Yell
