Protests In California as Trans Athlete Defies Trump’s Executive Order and Defeats All Female Rivals
Protests have erupted in California after a teenage trans athlete thrashed female rivals in defiance of Trump’s executive order.
The protests took place during a schoolgirl competition where A.B. Hernandez, a public high school junior in Southern California, sealed a place in three finals after coming top in high jump, long jump and triple jump.
President Trump has even stated he would make sure to hold back “large scale federal funding” and blasted the state governor who he claims has continued to “illegally allow men to compete in women’s sports”.
The Daily Mail reports: Hernansez’s glamorous mother, who has also been confronted by angry parents whose daughters are losing out on gold medals, responded to the dramatic onslaught. She slammed the President’s “weapons of harm” and said her daughter (a teen male who claims to be a female) had become the “target of a national campaign of cruelty”.
Hernandez has previously faced controversy from his competitors – a teenage girl he defeated to win first place waited for her rival to get down from the top of the podium before posing up there herself, in the ovations of the public.
And as protesters descended on the California Interscholastic Federation state finals, police were dramatically called in – with protesters “turning physical” and even using pepper spray.
Police arrested one LGBTQ activist, who is accused of shattering a car window with a flag pole – as Sergeant Chris Hutchison of Clovis Police Department said he doesn’t allow “room for violence.”
Videos of the attack show a masked protestor with a trans flag walking up to a car before thrusting it through the window. The person in the car claims that they responded with pepper spray.
As the girls went to the competition ground, a plane flew a banner across the high school track-and-field championships stating “No boys in girls sports”. While the trans teenage male competed, he was heckled by gathered activists and people in the public who wore “Save Girls´ Sports” T-shirts.
In February, President Trump signed an executive order banning trans athletes from women’s sports, called “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports”. His action was widely acclaimed across the nation by many sports fans.
