The parents of four middle-school girls in West Virginia have sued the Mountain State’s Harrison County Board of Education for banning them from competition after they protested against a “transgender girl” who competed in a girls’ track and field meet.
They protested at the meet after a misguided federal court overturned the state’s Save Women’s Sports Act on behalf of the masquerading boy.
The parents argue that the girls did nothing wrong and did not disrupt the meet. As well, the lawsuit argues, the ban trespasses their rights to free speech under the U.S. and West Virginia Constitutions.
