Reply to Officials Want Ideas for Keeping Trucks Out of Smugglers' Notch by Distinguished_Parrot

This seems easy yet hard…

  1. Build a turn around past the last spot to access the road on both ends.
  2. Place automatic gate at the base by the turn around.
  3. Install a camera that measures the vehicle at the gate. If it’s too long gate doesn’t open and message shows on one of the message panels that they must turn around and proceed down the hill. If vehicle is not too long the gate opens and they proceed.

Problem solved.

Talk to someone who works with middle schoolers in a Behavior intervention/counselor role or similar. The issue isn’t the trans kids they deserve to be treated fair. The issue is that there are more kids changing pronouns for the sake of attention, rebelling, etc than there are legit trans kids. They have kids who are switching pronouns on a weekly basis at school, and then reporting teachers for not using the right pronoun. Kids are confused and incredibly manipulative these days. And in that lense it’s better safe than sorry. One of these days someone’s gonna be raped in one of these bathrooms. When that happens people will realize that we need to take a step back on all this stuff.

I’m sorry but there is valid concern here by parents of kids who are not trans. Kids have no fucking clue what or who they are 99% of the time. In 7th grade I thought I was gonna be a pro football player, in 8th grade I was a jnco wearer, by 9th grade I was Eminem. Girls deserve to use a bathroom without a boy walking in saying they identify as XYZ today. This may be harsh to the actual trans people, but from what i hear from friends who work in schools and work with troubled youths, a lot of these kids are switching pronouns regularly and often in a manner that clearly shows they are just fucking with school staff. If they can’t allow girls and boys in separate rooms and kids who are undecided to use a different facility then the schools need to do away with gendered facilities all together and make single occupancy facilities.

Also bullying is bad, but fuck sake we have to recognize that it’s not below a 14 year old boy to say he is a girl to see some boobs.
