Today's "Heartless, Insensitive Motherfuckers Award" goes to . . . . .

. . . . the Fountain-Fort Carson School District 8 in Colorado.

Faced with a transgendered child in their school, these paragons of child welfare ban her from the girl's room. I'm sure there's an unevolved segment of their constituency, often seen dragging their knuckles, that thinks this is all just hunky dory.

I'm glad her parents are looking out for her. That's going to make her stronger when "Heartless, Insensitive Motherfuckers" are cruel.

If a first grader asked me about this I'd say some girls have boy parts, and some boys have girl parts.

The first grader would probably say, "Oh," and that would be the end of it.

It's adults who teach kids kids to hate and fear the "other."
