Transgender Officer Banned from Event She Helped Organize


SAN DIEGO (AP) — A transgender police officer who helped organize San Diego’s Transgender Day of Awareness was turned away from the event when she tried to attend in her police uniform.

The San Diego Union-Tribune reports leaders of San Diego’s LGBT Community Center later apologized to Officer Christine Garcia and Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman.

Garcia, who publicly transitioned last year, is San Diego’s first transgender police officer.

She helped plan last week’s event and was also a member of a police detail that provided security.

They turn on you. Don't trust any of them.

I know I am in the minority but I still believe LGBT is a form of mental illness. It is not rational and in my experience these people do not behave in a rational manner.

Liberals want republicans to be inclusive and not be preducial, yet they always seem to cast stereotypes on us, don't they. How convenient

Homosexuality is a proven and confirmed mental illness but they were forced to change the classification out of political pressure not science.

I can see how they change a man into a woman but how do they change a woman into a man? I mean what's fair and politically correct has to work both ways doesn't it?
