It happened in Cherokee County, North Carolina

The story I’ve been dreading ever since the Biden Administration started demanding that biological males compete with girls in sports has happened in Cherokee County, North Carolina.

https://www.breitbart.com/sports/2022/10/19/video-north-carolina-high-schools-cancel-volleyball-games-against-one-school-after-transgender-player-injures-girl/

A “transgender” athlete (i.e., a biological male “identifying” as female, complete with all the physical strength advantages of a male that we’re supposed to ignore now) was allowed to play on the Highland High girls’ volleyball team. “She” spiked the ball so hard that it smashed into the forehead of an actual girl on the Hiwassee Dam High team. She suffered severe head and neck injuries, resulting in long-term concussion symptoms, including vision problems. She’s seeing a primary care doctor and a neurologist, but still hasn’t been cleared to play again.

Breitbart reports that “the Cherokee County Board of Education then voted 5-1 to declare a ‘safety issue’ and canceled all games against Highlands High after coach and Cherokee Board Member Joe Wood said he had 'never seen a hit like this before,'” declaring, “I’ll never put a child in a position to be seriously injured.”

Another board member added, “I think most of the board members also felt like there’s a competitive advantage issue.” Gee, do you think?!

This should come as no surprise to anyone with a functioning brain. The danger to women from “trans” male competitors extends beyond them just taking all the trophies and scholarships. That should’ve been apparent even to the boneheads of this Administration when we saw the stories of “trans” MMA fighters nearly killing their female opponents (here’s one from a year ago.)

And now, we’re seeing it starting to happen in schools, thanks to this Administration putting its genuflection to the LGBTQ donor lobby ahead of women’s rights and safety. Why in the world do women continue to support a Party that claims to be so sensitive that they believe “words are violence” but that allows girls’ sports to be taken over, their private spaces invaded, and their bodies physically assaulted by biological males? Does a female student athlete have to be killed or paralyzed before schools finally stand up and tell the biological science-deniers, “No more of this madness”?

    What ever happened to the PTA? When did parents quit taking an interest in their children’s education and the environment of the school they attended? Funny how you go to any sports competition involving schools and the stands are packed with parents and relatives yet they can’t be bothered to go to a meeting with teachers and administration to see first hand what their children are being taught or told about! What has happened to society that now we have to armor our school buildings and place armed guards inside and out just so a child won’t go crazy and start killing everyone inside? What’s changed in our lives? We have turned our backs on God for one. What exactly was horrible about hearing a little Bible verse about peace and love of everyone? And what happened to common sense? A boy is a boy and a girl is a girl and there is NO other genders anywhere else! Get back to the three basic things— reading writing and arithmetic— no core—- real arithmetic, the same stuff that took men to the moon and back! History is history— don’t white wash it or add personal opinions on it. It’s history! It’s not Walt Disney history it’s real life good and bad! CRT is a horrible agenda and has no place in our schools or anywhere else. We have to get back to actually teaching children skills and truths and not brainwashing them and trying to make them into something else someone thinks they should be. Give them the tools they need to make a good life for themselves and for people around them. We need to do a better job not indoctrination but education! It worked out for so many years why did it change? It wasn’t broke so put it back! Woke is BROKE! CRT is broke! Stop the madness!

    This is so ridiculous and outrageous I can’t understand what they are trying to accomplish by having men playing against women, it boggles my brain!

    Just as in the days of Noah! Sodom and Gomorrah are trying to take over again. The immoral want to rule this nation. No, we are who are on God's side must stand up and fight this maddening stupidity.
    Truth is truth, the are only male and female. A man can never be a woman and a woman can never be a man. Both need to be where God placed them. Countries protect!
    On God's side, Ruth

    Tragic, but predictable to anyone with an ounce of sense. Amusingly though, a heavy, bearded male decided to take advantage of a University of Colorado sorority's woke new policy of opening membership to "trans" individuals. ??

    I hope the parents of the injured girls sues all involved & wins. Even if it means going all the way to the Supreme court.

    PS. I wrote you in in 2016 since KY was a easy win & didn't like Trump at the time. Liked most all he did though.

    This needs to immediately stop. Every genetically female athlete must stand up and refuse to compete with a biological male. Before a relative of a female athlete is forced to take action to save a life. Wake up, America.

    I live in Cherokee County NC and am familiar with this incident. I can't believe one board member voted against the resolution not to play Highlands High School women's sports if they have transgender athletes. Women's sports are for real women, not those who "think" they are. And if you can't define a woman, you need help.

    I honestly can’t think of words… at least one’s l would care to repeat about this kind of ignorance! As bad as it is, or maybe as dumb as it is for females to go up against males (although l know a couple l would NOT want to challenge) it seems like a relatively easy fix. Not popular maybe but easy for females and/or parents to just say NO!!! “I will not - my daughter - will not complete physically with a male!” Of course then you would have to listen to all the liberals scream like a bunch of smashed cats but, oh well.
