So a convicted murderer wins his lawsuit saying the state has to pay for his sex change operation. It is necessary because without the sex change operation he will feel sad.

U.S. District Judge Mark Wolf ruled in 2012 that the state Department of Correction must provide sex reassignment surgery for Michelle Kosilek, who was born as Robert Kosilek and is serving a life sentence for the killing of his wife in 1990.

Kosilek's attorney Frances Cohen had previously said the surgery, which can cost more than $50,000, would be paid for under a contract the Department of Correction has with its medical provider.

This guy murdered his wife when she caught him wearing her clothes.

I know people who have lost their homes thanks to the economy, worked hard and now they struggle to feed their kids or have a decent Christmas.

People have lost businesses and homes. many will continue to do so. Wehave homeless men on the streets eating out of garbage cans.

The pervert murderer gets a 50k sex change. Go figure.

This judge is a jerk, the legal system is stupid and broken.

It's crazy how much *** stuff is paid for but many don't have access to basic healthcare. Have some disgusting disease from usually one or the other  being promiscuous and there is a network of free gov funded places to pay for treatment. People die or are severely disabled because they cannot pay for basic healthcare in other cases though.

What else can be expected from the country that is the first among equals in the new heathendom that is the modern west. If I had 50,000 I'd use it to emigrate to Patagonia so that I could live whatever time I have left in peace far away from the utterly worthless dung-heap of the modern babylon.
