  • This kind of idiocy is why we have a literal genocide enabling rapist and (probable) pedophile in the whitehouse riding roughshod over the constitution while Congress and the Supreme Court packed full of his shitbird lackeys cheer him on from the sidelines.

  • Very cute. I'd love to hold my gecko like this, but she is a cranky old lady.

  • Sure sure,

    On the flipside though, if this student had been verbally and physically harassed multiple times while in the locker room while staff ignored his complaints, then he may have felt compelled to film simply to prevent worse harassment from occuring.

    Clearly, there is more going on than what information is publicly available.

  • Not relevant to this thread. Since you're here though...

    ...let’s analyze this a bit further… Who’s personal experience should dictate school safety procedures?

  • In fairness to my past self, a locker room was a place to change my clothes and get out. I was uncomfortable being in there with anyone for any length of time.

    I'm trying to take a view from the other boys, who see him as a girl. You can't reasonably expect people who've grown up in a society where they're is a binary assignment between boy and girl at birth to suddenly understand and accept a trans person, without some kind of education, coaching and adjustment period. From the other boys perspective, this student was a girl, and he just came into the locker room and started filming them. If I went into a women's locker room and started filming, I probably would get a police escort out of the building with some shiny new bracelets. There are two sides to this story. I'm not saying that the trans boy wasn't being harassed. I was saying that there is more going on here, because a couple of boys saying "I'm not comfortable with this girl in the locker room" wouldn't get them suspended for 10 days, the school district said the same thing in the article.

  • Ah, so you wouldn't recommend that someone buy one of these things as a daily driver? You only have the truck for doing truck stuff, right?

  • True. My guess is that this is something that has been consistently happening to him. Knowing how schools slow-roll harassment and bullying compliants (unless it has been massively reworked in the last 20 years) he probably saw video evidence as the only way to force the staff to intervene, and was willing to accept the risks of filming the incident.

  • Yeah, because you're in a big truck, and not a sensibly sized car getting pinched between a brodozer and a concrete barrier everyday.

  • I agree, but let's analyze this a bit further... Who's personal experience should dictate school safety procedures?

    Edit : They did not want to discuss. They instead wanted to use a small grammatical mistake to avoid any discussion at all.

  • No, I think I got it alright.

    and if he is willing, the trans student as well.

    I imagine some girls would be equally as uncomfortable with this boy in their locker room. From the perspective of those other boys, there was a girl in their locker room. We need to teach understanding that trans people exist, and they need to use bathrooms and locker rooms as well.

    I'm with you on having more availability of gender neutral locker rooms, but until schools either integrate all locker rooms (unlikely, seeing how parents have reacted) or build a 3rd locker room (equally unlikely IMO) then we need to teach about how trans people feel, and replace fear and discomfort with understanding and acceptance.

  • Everyone I know uses them pretty consistently to tow.

    Is even softer data than what I posted, and softer than the old survey you were complaining about.

  • There's 2 F series trucks for every square mile of this country. Do you think they are all out there hauling loads and trailers, off roading and actualling being used for truck stuff, or do you think that the vast majority of them are single occupant highway battering rams built to make small men feel big and important?

    Remember, 2 per square mile, and that just one series of trucks, from 1 manufacturer, going back just 10 years.

    In the absence of hard statistics, I think a gut check on the sheer scale of trucks being sold in the US will suffice.

  • It’s easier more profitable to make a larger footprint the consumer buy a larger vehicle than a more efficient vehicle.

    Minor fixes, spot on otherwise.

  • People have had success emailing and asking for the name of the person that denyed your MRI so that you can either sue them for malpractice, or so you can sue them for practicing medicine without a license.
