What if Bradley manning was a heterosexual?

But... what if he was a heterosexual!!!  Would he get this kind of a break?!  If he didn't have a super-clear case of gender-dysphoria, would he have been released early?!  Are there not heterosexuals incarcerated for the same crime committed by Mr. Manning?  And do they now have the right to appeal their sentences on the grounds of his release?  Why does Bradley Manning get special treatment for abandoning sexual sanity?!

Not only does Mr. Manning get an early release, he gets to make American taxpayers foot the bill to surgically alter his body.  Amazing.  What is wrong with this World?  How did this madness come into being?

This story upset me so much, I came up with a whole new technique to write this post at work without violating the rules of my employer.
