What started with a racist sign outside an Arlington school board meeting devolved into total chaos on Thursday night, as left-wing activists went wild.
The meeting first drew attention when a left-winger of the Boomer generation was pictured holding a sign that read, "Hey Winsome, if trans can't share your bathroom, then blacks can't share my water fountain." That was an insanely racist shot at Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears (R-VA), who is now running for governor. She showed up at the meeting to stand in solidarity with normal parents against the school district's policy of allowing boys and men to use female restrooms and locker rooms.

Little did we know that a racist sign was just the beginning. Once the meeting started, things went from bad to worse, with parents being heckled by rainbow-clad activists. Why? Because said parents had the audacity to object to a registered sex offender being allowed to use a girls' locker room by claiming to be "transgender."
Who is Richard Cox? He's a man that the school district let use the aforementioned girls' locker room, at which point he exposed himself to children. Innocent girls were actually forced to change next to him. That's apparently something worth defending if you're a deranged left-wing lunatic from Arlington, VA.
It wasn't just the outside activists, though. Various teachers also showed up to support the school's "transgender" policies. One who had "come out" just before school started compared not allowing mentally-ill men into female spaces to Jim Crow-era segregation.
Sears endured harassment as she spoke at the meeting, but she held strong and delivered a message of sanity on the issue.
Meanwhile, Sears' opponent, former CIA flack and current House member Abigail Spanberger, has reiterated that she supports the policies that let Cox into the girls' locker room. One can only hope this issue becomes a turning point in the race, much like it did for current Gov. Glenn Youngkin in 2021.
Unfortunately, all this proves is that woke isn't dead. Democrats were always destined to double down on their worst instincts, and the transgender lobby specifically is only going to become more militant. Normal people must continue to fight back, both publicly and at the ballot box.
