    Why can’t trans people just grow up instead of throwing violent tantrums?

    Why can’t women just grow up instead of throwing violent tantrums?

    Why can’t jews/muslims/insert group of your choice grow up instead of throwing violent tantrums?

    See how fucking stupid you sound?

    Equality means equality and we shouldn’t be selective about enforcing it. If a group of people are offended by something, grow the fuck up and stop doing it. Period.

      What are you on about? Religion is a mental illness forced on children through abuse. No one is born with it. It’s not a choice. Why should these violent maniacs dictate policy for normal people?

      Please name some instances when a trans person or woman has thrown a violent tantrum and ended up killing more than ten people. These issues are far from being equal or even comparable.

        Not mentioning something that was done in a certain school by a trans person because they didn’t like what they said about them

            It did and it was the last few lines of my comment.

            “Equality means equality and we shouldn’t be selective about enforcing it. If a group of people are offended by something, grow the fuck up and stop doing it.”

            The rest of the responses to my comment have been a combination of bad faith arguments and deflections, which is why it’s not worth responding especially when people have their minds made up.

            If a group of people aren’t going to stop harassing another set of people just because they belong to a certain religion, it’s incumbent on a government to step in and pass legislation that prevents/discourages it. I’m not sure why this is confusing to literally any sane minded individual.
