Response to Daily Trojan Article

I'm finding this article a little difficult to respond to, as the author jumped between topics so frequently and nonsensically that it's nearly impossible to extract an overall point to the piece.  I'm not sure if Salama intended to publish a piece championing the rights of the more intolerant among us, or to complain about over regulation and government presence in public matters, or even to raise issue with lack of attention to other social issues in need of legislation.  Near the beginning of the article, the author seems to take issue with creating "a law to expedite that transition" from one gender identity to another, but fails to discuss any further why the creation of the law is unnecessary.  Instead, Salama proceeds to list off generalized statements about political tendencies in metropolitan areas, and that people tend to be more accepting in these locations.  The article leaps back and forth between statements about supporting "people who aren’t as comfortable with working with people who identify as transgender", and comparisons of changing gender to changing one's name.  On the whole, the article leads me to believe Salama is a very confused individual who hasn't put much time into developing a clear line of thought and accidentally wrote an article that tells more about the author than about the intended subject(s).
