'The County Council approved a controversial anti-discrimination provision broadening the county's human rights laws to include transgender people in an 8-0 vote Tuesday.

Why are we the targets of such vile hatred? When did we do any harm to anyone?
Here's what I find about compromise--
don't do it if it hurts inside,
'cause either way you're screwed,
eventually you'll find
you may as well feel good;
you may as well have some pride
