Transsexuals are the biggest threat to the safety of American children. Additionally transsexuals who do not easily pass are kidnappers and child molesters. These statements were validated by the actions of members of the Sacramento Police Department over New Years.
Susie Bell (not her real name), a pre-op transsexual living on the outskirts of Sacramento wasn't content to stay at home on New Year's Eve. She does not pass easily as a genetic woman. Standing 6'6" in three-inch heals, with strong square shoulders and a voice that doesn't feminize well, Susie Bell refuses to let that stop her from outwardly expressing her inner woman.
[...]
It was then that two male police offers with the Sacramento County Police Department approached her, escorted her from the crowd and asked to see her ID and wanted an explanation of why she was at the public event.
ID was provided and her explanation was quick, "Celebratin' New Year." She then asked if she had done something wrong.
"We received a call that you were talking to children," replied one of the officers.

Shows how far we've come. She wasn't beaten and thrown in jail. Why am I not reassured by that? :-\

I'm not exactly sure how police should respond. They should follow up on leads for anyone acting suspiciously with kids. Unfortunately, it was bigots reporting the problem. It doesn't sound like the police were abusive in any way. This is a big problem for us for there will always be those who want to point the finger. It truly is a mess.

Reminds me of when I asked my one coworker if he had told his wife about me, and what she thought about my transitioning.
His answer was, "Well when she was here the other day, she let you hold the baby, didn't she?"
:(
