If what im fixing to post makes someone mad,I appologise righ now,but I got to wright it.

I have worked for years as many of us do and have,I followed the law and stayed out of trouble cause im wired that way.Over the last 64 years I have done my best to live with what I had to live with and for the most part as I wanted to.Over the las 20 or so years I live as a male,Im just being me as I am,perfect, no its not.I wish I could have the surgeries to change how my body is but I will never have the cash to do so.I would only have top surgery done cause I can always strap it on.I already had a hysto so im half way there sa far as I can see.To think someone who had comitted a crime and doing a lotta time can have srs to make them live better flys in the face of every trans person who has done all the work to do all this themselves but what ever leagle means they use..work,saveing acount,tax refund ect.I do really feel for them, but they did the crime so in my eyes they gave up the right to use my tax money to have srs.Houseing,food,clothing proper medical care fine with me..the rest Bull s*%t.

Yes!

I agree.



It brings to mind, although completely a separate issue ~ driving by the
corners and parks where our homless live on what they can scrape
together to eat, etc...and our Prisoners are fed 3 squares.


Or they can always order a Snickers n shit like that from the Jail Store.


Many of us have paid into a system that will likely never yield
back to us the same. The Injustice of these such situations
indeed, seem desperately...out of our (the gen pop) hands.

Thank You Mr.Day.I read on yahoo that we do less and less for the needy than most countrys do.There is something fundamentaly wrong when the homeless get by on so little and the ppl who serve time amy get the extra things they think is nessary.Hog wash I say!
