KLo, if folks aren’t reading today, they’d miss out on news like this:

In a decision that outraged state officials and prosecutors, a federal judge has ruled that a lawsuit by a convicted murderer who wants the state to pay for an operation to make him a woman can go forward…
In his decision, [the judge] stressed that other court decisions have concluded that transsexualism can be classified as a “serious medical need,” that a treatment plan must be decided by a medical professional and that blanket denial of such a medical evaluation contradicts previous legal precedents.

Of course, what I want to know is, after we pay for the sex change, would we have to pay to transfer him/her to the women’s prison? Your tax dollars at work.
