Some protests are more equal than others.
As students rampage on college campuses, block highways, and shout expletives at Jews, five middle-school female students who silently and respectfully declined to compete against a boy have been banned from competing in school competitions.
I am not making this up.
NEW: Five girls from Lincoln Middle School who refused to compete against a transgender athlete during a shot put competition have been BANNED from future competitions.

As you can see from the video, all the girls did was enter the circle from which they were supposed to throw the shotput and then step out again. No shouting. No insults. No tantrums.
Just a silent protest against a manifest unfairness. In 2020, riots were a public health imperative; in 2024, middle school girls stepping out of a circle silently is a cause for dramatic punishment.
For this reason, the school administration has banned them from any future competitions.
Not what you do but what you believe determines your rights. Adults are canceling students.
Unbelievable.
Five West Virginia middle schoolers who protested a transgender athlete’s participation in a track and field competition have been barred from future meets — prompting the state attorney general to ask the US Supreme Court to weigh in on transgender student-athlete bans for a second time.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey filed a lawsuit against the Harrison County Board of Education on the dissenting students’ behalf after they were blocked from upcoming meets following their protests at the April 18 shot put competition, West Virginia Watch reported.
Five girls from Lincoln Middle School stepped up to the circle for their turn before refusing to throw in the event, which was won by Becky Pepper-Jackson, a 13-year-old girl who takes puberty-blocking medication and estrogen hormone therapy.
While West Virginia law bans transgender girls from playing on girls’ sports teams, a recent federal appeals court ruled that the law couldn’t lawfully be applied to the eighth-grader.
This is, of course, insane. And the state is fighting back against the decision of the local school district. At least somebody is speaking up where the students cannot.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey filed a brief in support of the female middle school student-athletes who publicly protested a transgender athlete competing in their track and field competition.
The transgender athlete has been permitted to compete due to a recent federal appeals court ruling.
Five students who forfeited their shot-put competition April 18 in protest have now been barred from competing in that event at their next track and field meet, according to a new release from the AG’s office.
Four of the five students, through their parents, filed suit.
“Their actions at the earlier track meet were not disruptive or aggrandizing. They were the quiet demonstration of the student-athletes’ evident unhappiness with the competitive consequences of a federal appellate court’s decision,” Morrisey, a Republican, wrote in the amicus brief filed April 26.
You know exactly what message is being sent by the “educators:” get in line or get out. There is an intersectional pyramid of “oppression,” and girls are being pushed down to the bottom.
For some reason, and I can’t imagine why, there is no large-scale movement of “trans-men” to participate in male sports. Few, if any, girls who “identify” as boys are demanding that they strip naked in front of boys and compete against them, but bigger and stronger “transwomen” are flooding into girls’ sports, leaving girls in the dust.
And the education establishment is cheering them on.
Here are the board of education members responsible for the banning of these girls who bravely protested being forced to compete with biological males. Contact them and respectfully make your voices heard. https://t.co/4bTLvT4oND https://t.co/nLP3Ve4cpP pic.twitter.com/J2qchhmU9c

Girls are being told that they don’t matter, and they surely are getting the message.
Educationally, boys are being discriminated against, while in sports, girls are. The only students who are being embraced by the powers that be are members of the alphabet mob.
Is it any wonder that younger kids are declaring themselves “Queer” in ever greater numbers? You get more of what you reward.
As I wrote earlier, the fever is breaking in Europe, where biological reality is again acknowledged. The opposite is happening on the North American continent, where alphabet ideology is ascendant.
It’s grossly unfair that young girls are being forced to be advocates of sanity; that is the job of adults.
And the adults are failing.
