"As we travel into this “transhuman” future, one where humans physically remake themselves at will, we are now being presented with “transabled” individuals. People who want to purposefully cut off their arms and/or legs, people who want to blind themselves, and people who otherwise covet becoming disabled in one form or another should be allowed to do whatever they want with their bodies, and the taxpayer should pay for it.""Becoming disabled by choice, not chance: ‘Transabled’ people feel like impostors in their fully working bodies"...."Article continuations, and links: http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/06/02/next-aggrieved-group-transabled-people-who-want-to-purposefully-disable-themselves/http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/becoming-disabled-by-choice-not-chance-transabled-people-feel-like-impostors-in-their-fully-working-bodieshttp://www.inquisitr.com/2139238/transabled-become-disabled-by-choice/So, I'm wonderin' if this going to be on the next Vanity Fair cover...  And held up as "Courageous," "Brave," and labeled as a "Hero," and a "Legend?"   4951

Agreed @herron1345, some **** is just too incredible to make up...And to answer your question, yes.  I am sure we will have to pay for it and yes, I am sure those people will be considered above all others for making a decision about their bodies and persons.  Because, you know, only people who do things out of the "norm" of society deserve our praises. 4951

Don't they have "wards" for people like that?  People with lepracy were put in colonies, right?  So, why can't people like that be put in something similiar?  I don't care what you chop off, but my tax dollars (you know, the 30+ % the government takes from every one of my paychecks) better not be supporting your habit. 4951

There was one on Jerry Springer, oh, probably a decade ago. He chopped off his own legs. The guy was unimaginable. Then he decided after they saved him that time, that they weren't cut off enough, so, he did it again. It was so.. I can't even describe it, I had to turn it off. And no, it was no joke.  4951

This is just another example of why some people just need to be told that what they want is not ok. 4951

yes breitbart is full of BS...thats why they were the first to report our guys getting shot at ..at the border  while our national news was still reporting week old floods and dugger, jenner, and whatever else they could fill space with. Sometimes you gotta realize it really IS TRUE and not Made up conspiracy regardless who is reporting it! 4951

@ProblemAgainThis thread is actually NOT bullsh*, as you so negatively referred to it as.....  What I personally find to be, in your word, "Bull****," is when actual facts are presented pertaining to any issue that does not fit your agenda, or your opinions, or personal beliefs, and so you begin to label, name call, and throw known rhetorical P.C. mud.....  And I listed not one, but three sources, as well as @vinbert  listed a fourth....  I could have very easily added many more, as all you have to do is simply search "Transabled" online...   Google is your friend...."Transabled" is a documented so-called "Disorder"....   Key words here, dude: FACTS MATTER
