I will admit it: when I first saw this tweet from Greg Price, I had trouble believing it. No one, and I mean no one, could possibly be this stupid.
Total Chaos at Arlington School Board Meeting, and You Won’t Believe What Left-Wingers Were Defending
By Bonchie | Friday, August 22, 2025 9:45 AM EDT
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 allegedly 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.
There’s more at the original.
As much as I like Bonchie and RedState, I will admit that they can get a bit strident, and not everyone will accept RedState as a legitimate news source, so I searched for credentialed media sources as well, and yup, Mr Cox was arrested for indecent exposure:
Transgender sex offender to appear in court for alleged exposure at Virginia schools, gyms
by WJLA Staff | Monday, March 3rd 2025 | 8:02 AM
ARLINGTON, Va. (WJLA) — Richard Cox, a registered child sex offender who identifies as transgender, will appear in court Monday for a hearing on alleged indecent exposure at a fitness center and two Virginia schools.
Cox, 58, is facing more than 20 charges in Arlington County, where he is accused of exposing himself to women and girls in female locker rooms.
The incidents reportedly occurred at several locations, including the Barcroft Sports and Fitness Center, Washington Liberty High School, and Wakefield High School. These schools have pools that are open to the public after school hours.
That not good enough of a credentialed media source for you? How about The Washington Post?
Cox has been convicted of more than a dozen crimes in Arlington and Fairfax dating to 1992, including indecent exposure, child pornography, failing to register as a sex offender and taking indecent liberties with a child, according to court records.
So, why was the distinguished Mr Cox not behind bars in February of this year?
Court records indicate that gym staffers weren’t aware of that history when Cox appeared at two Fairfax County Planet Fitness locations, including one next to a children’s indoor play center, last June. A woman filed a criminal complaint directly to a magistrate that month after seeing Cox naked in the women’s restroom, the first of what would be many complaints against Cox in the ensuing months.
“I panicked and ran out to clarify and see if I’m in the right restroom,” the woman wrote.
Cox wrote in court papers, “I had called ahead and identified myself as a transgender female.” Cox also provided the gym with a driver’s license with the sex marked as female, according to the records.
In Virginia, individuals self-select the gender that appears on their licenses. Arlington court records vary, listing Cox’s gender as female, male and other depending on the document. The state sex offender registry lists Cox as male.
Our very noble, so well intentioned friends on the left pushed the bovine feces that a person could ‘identify’ as something he isn’t, so naturally Mr Cox, a previously convicted sex offender, was able to get state issued documents which helped enable him to continually re-offend. If Mr Cox’s state issued driver’s license states that he is female, is he legally able to be convicted of exposing himself to women and underaged girls in a designated women’s changing room? This is the kind of idiocy to which accepting ‘transgenderism’ leads.
This is not a one-off case: Will Thomas, the male swimmer who identified as a female while calling himself “Lia”, was using the women’s locker rooms to change, also exposing his male self to the real women forced to use the same locker room with him. Apparently our good friends on the left don’t see that as a problem.
Sadly, the initial case against Mr Cox was dismissed because the woman who made the complaint did not appear for a hearing.
Fox Channel 5 in Washington reported on the Arlington school board meeting. And the Loudoun County schools suspended two boys for complaining that a girl who ‘identified’ as a boy was using the boys’ restroom while they were in there.
At some point, sanity has to prevail, but here we have Democrats who ought to at least understand that a whole bunch of people do not accept the cockamamie notion that girls can be boys and boys can be girls. It ought to be telling that that song was by a group called the Kinks.
Do the Democrats really want to campaign on such insanity? You wouldn’t think so, but apparently Democratic gubernatorial nominee Abigail Spanberger does! Hey, let her!
