I would like to say that this is unbelievable.
But we’re talking “woke” Deerfield Illinois and “woke Governor Pritzker, so it is all too real.
From former Chicago Tribune lead columnist John Kass’s latest article (the bold print is mine):
You hear that gruesome story of the 13-year-old middle-school girl from Deerfield confronted by school officials and ordered to disrobe in front of a male classmate?
It sounds too AWFL(*) to be true.
But it happened, according to her mother Nicole Georgas who said Tuesday she was filing a police complaint with the police in Deerfield on top of a complaint she filed with the U.S. Department of Justice.
The mom alone standing up for her daughter’s privacy was repeatedly mocked and insulted by hostile trans activists as she addressed a crowded District 109 School Board meeting.
The story has gone viral world-wide and was broken by the Lake County Gazette and Dan Proft’s radio show “The Morning Answer.”
To understand this bizzarro world, please understand this:
Even though President Donald Trump has signed an executive order protecting girls’ privacy, and has vowed to cut federal education funding to rogue states, the Illinois Democrats are funded by billionaire Gov. JB Pritzker, who is the bankrupt state’s leading activist for transexuals.
And he’s running for president.
“The male student was present in the girls’ locker room,” Georges said at the school board meeting. “Feeling violated, the girls made the choice not change into their PE (physical education) clothes with a biological male present.”
The next day Georgas said, the officials at Alan B. Shepherd Middle School tried to bully a girls’ PE class into changing in front of the boy.
“(The administrators) all came into the girls locker room, making them change into uniform. This went on all week,” Georgas said. “My daughter refused to take part in her privacy being violated. How dare they!”
She said Shepard School Principal Rob Wegley told her daughter that any male student can use any girls’ bathroom or locker room at his school so long as they say claim to “identify as female.”
Georgas said Wegley told her this was the school policy as dictated by Ford and “legal counsel.” She said she has filed a civil rights complaint on behalf of her daughter with the U.S. Department of Justice.
Would it be fair to say that this is a newsworthy situation? I will give you credit for assuming that, yes, it is.
But Mr. Kass’s article goes on to tell us that neither of the two major Chicago Newspapers, the Tribune or the Sun-Times, have covered this story. Not a word about it. So the people – and there are a great many of them – who rely on these two papers for their news, have intentionally been made completely ignorant of the fact that this has happened.
As for the school’s Principal, rob wegley? I have a question for him: if the same “I identify as a woman” student – the one we’re supposed to pretend is a women solely because he “identifies” that way – now decides to identify as the school’s principal…
… does that mean Wegley has to share the principal’s office with him? Or get out and let him take over? Then, what if a third person claims to identify as the principal as well. And a fourth? Do you have to set up a suite of principal’s offices?
And before you tell me this is utterly ridiculous, a student can’t just parade into the office and announce this is his identity, you better take a look at what is (or was, if a surgery was performed) hanging from between the legs of your “I identify as a woman” cause celebre.
This gets loonier – and more dangerous – by the nanosecond.
*AWFL is John Kass’s acronym for “Angry White Femal Leftists”. Cute; but not, in my opinion, relevant to this incident.
