Former Washington Wizards player Etan Thomas claimed in a Friday Facebook post that a woman wouldn’t let him sit next to her on a train, presumably because he was black. He also published a photo of the woman. Getty Images “Ok so I’m getting on the train and there are no open seats and I ask this lady if I could sit next to her (very politely and I soften my voice as to not frighten her) and she says someone is sitting here. So I go to the next seat,” he wrote. “Now, less than 2 mins later a man (who happens to be white) asks if he can sit there and she says why sure let me move my stuff.” Thomas claimed things got even more uncomfortable from there.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — Visitors at Yale University’s 315th commencement will notice something new on campus this year — gender-neutral bathrooms in 23 buildings. AP Photo/Elaine Thompson The school is promoting them on its website for Monday’s commencement, complete with a link to a map showing where they can be found. It is one of several changes made in the past school year designed to make the university friendlier to transgender students, staff and visitors, school officials said. Yale also has decided to change a long-standing rule and will allow transgender graduates to have on their diploma the name they use, rather than the name on their birth certificates. “Yale aims to be a leader on this front.” Share: “Yale aims to be a leader on this front,” said Tamar Gendler, dean of Yale’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences. “Part of what is important about the all-gender bathroom project and about putting it at the top of our commencement site, is this is about public signaling.” Yale’s Equal Opportunity Statement, which covers all students and employees, has since 2006 prohibited discrimination based upon gender identity or expression in admission, education and employment. But Isaac Amend, a rising senior who is transitioning to male, said he and other members of the transgender community noticed a big difference at Yale after Caitlyn Jenner’s transition brought transgender issues into the national spotlight. “I’m pretty sure that if you take any year in Yale history and measure the amount of change that happened with regards to trans rights, this has been the most monumental year, by a lot,” Amend said. Professors are now using preferred pronouns when addressing students, and the school is allowing transgender students to change their names on their school identification card and the school’s web portal at no charge, he said. Gender reassignment surgery, hormone suppression therapy and medical procedures are now covered under the student health plan, although Amend said many doctors at the school are not supportive. “Yale’s programs policies and practices are very much what LGBT inclusion looks like for students on a campus,” said Rebby Kern, programs manager at Campus Pride, a nonprofit that tracks LGBT rights on campuses nationwide. Yale is among a growing number of schools changing policies regarding transgender rights. The University of Vermont last year also began officially addressing transgender students using the name and gender pronoun of their choice. Smith College, an all-women’s school in Massachusetts, made headlines last year when it began admitting students who were born male but identify as female. Yale rival Harvard allows housing with the gender with which a student identifies for sophomores, juniors and seniors and allows students to use the bathrooms with which they feel most comfortable. But it does not allow nonlegal names to appear on official documents. Yale’s all-gender bathrooms are the product of the work of Yale’s office of LGBTQ Resources, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and Office of Diversity and Inclusion. Most are single stall restrooms that were once labeled either as either a men’s or a women’s room. They now include signs that say “All Gender Restroom” with the traditional man and woman figures next to a figure wearing pants on one leg and a dress on the other. Amend said he was excited to find out that the all-gender bathrooms are being promoted at commencement, when many old-guard alumni will learn of them for the first time. “That’s music to my ears,” he said. “And what’s the greatest harm that can be done? An old white guy makes a snide remark? Who cares?” Read more stories from TheBlaze ‘Really, Hershey?’ Visitors Have Mixed Reactions After Hersheypark Announces It Will Allow Guests to Use Bathrooms According to Gender Identity Clinton Calls Trump’s Pro-Gun Policies ‘Not Just Way Out There,’ but ‘Dangerous’ See What’s Happened to Target’s Stock in the Past Month Amid Transgender Bathroom Uproar Trump Campaign Retracts Claim That It Raised $6 Million for Veterans Parents Find Horrific Injuries on 1-Year-Old Son — And They’re Stunned When They Learn Why Charges Are Being Dropped Source

The death of 24-year-old Michelle O’Connell was quickly ruled a suicide in 2010 after her body was discovered in the Florida home she shared with her boyfriend, a sheriff’s deputy. Six years later, a new independent autopsy has reportedly uncovered several bombshell revelations. Dr. William Anderson said O’Connell’s family asked him to have the woman’s body exhumed for a new examination — and claimed his tests suggest homicide, not suicide, the Daily Mail reported. Family members believe Jeremy Banks, a deputy with the St. John’s County Sheriff’s department, was involved in O’Connell’s death. He has never been charged with any crime connected to the case. More from the bombshell report: But, according to the report compiled by Dr Anderson and with the help of two dental experts, her mandible, or jaw bone, was virtually snapped in two before the fatal gun shot. They also found that the way the gun was placed in her mouth, O’Connell would have been gagging and could even have been choking. The autopsy states the jaw was broken by blunt-force trauma, suggesting she could have been punched in the face or pistol whipped just before she died. At the end of the report, the conclusion plainly states: ’The manner of death should be considered Homicide.’ The new details, coupled with domestic abuse allegations, are sure to raise additional questions about her death six years ago. Family members have claimed that O’Connell had packed her bags and was preparing to leave Banks at the time. The family hopes a prosecutor will be moved to convene a grand jury after the findings are submitted to the medical examiner’s office.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio declared there is a “war on cops” after two of his deputies were “ambushed” within a two week period. The latest shooting occurred on Friday when an unidentified gunman allegedly parked his car outside a sheriff’s office substation in Surprise, Arizona, and opened fire. The suspect was allegedly aiming for a deputy, who escaped death by taking cover behind a bulletproof door. Screengrab via KHPO-TV A second deputy was able to disarm and arrest the suspect following the initial burst of gunfire. Police recovered two weapons on the suspect, who has yet to be identified. The motive for the unprovoked shooting is still a mystery. “I’m not happy with people shooting at my deputies,” a furious Arpaio told KPHO-TV. “It’s the second time — and this is an ambush.” CBS 5 – KPHO CNN has more details on the previous shooting involving a Maricopa County sheriff’s deputy: On May 7, Maricopa County sheriff’s Deputy Bryan Wisda suffered non-threatening injuries after a gunman in a passing car opened fire on him, according to Deputy Joaquin Enriquez. Wisda made a DUI enforcement traffic stop in Tempe when someone in a silver Cadillac sprayed him and his patrol car with gunfire, Enriquez said. The suspect then fled. The motive in the May shooting is also unclear. — Read more stories from TheBlaze ‘Really, Hershey?’ Visitors Have Mixed Reactions After Hersheypark Announces It Will Allow Guests to Use Bathrooms According to Gender Identity Clinton Calls Trump’s Pro-Gun Policies ‘Not Just Way Out There,’ but ‘Dangerous’ See What’s Happened to Target’s Stock in the Past Month Amid Transgender Bathroom Uproar Trump Campaign Retracts Claim That It Raised $6 Million for Veterans Krauthammer Reveals Person He Thinks Is Most Likely to Be Selected As Trump’s Running Mate Source
