THE GUERRILLA ANGEL REPORT — A hate group linking trans people to pedophiles failed in their attempt to derail a transgender rights bill in the Delaware Senate. The bill is now on the way to the House and the governor is in support of it.

The Delaware Family Policy Council”s Jordan Warfel: “This bill makes no legal distinction between someone who is transgender and any other person who claims to be the other sex, including predators, exhibitionists, peeping toms.”

The council’s Nicole Theis: “When you create the environment for trouble, that’s what you’re going to get. Just because it hasn’t happened yet, it doesn’t mean it’s not bad policy.”

DOJ Attorney General Patricia Dailey Lewis responded to Waefel statement by calling it “. . . offensive and exploitative to children and the people who work to protect them.” We do not have one known case, one reported case, of a transgender individual attacking a child.”

Lewis’ office noted that the majority of sex offenders are known to their victims.



Prior to the vote the council distributed a video showing a bearded man following a child into the women’s bathroom tagged with “Is this what you want for Delaware?”

I am unsure of if the group plans to impede a vote in the Delaware House.
