Ami Horowitz, who has made an art form out of man-on-the-street interviews, has a new video out that should scare you, assuming you don’t think gender-confused pre-schoolers should undergo sex changes.
Pretending to gather signatures in support of “Annie Rodriguez,” a fictitious 5 year old whose parents won’t allow her to undergo gender-swapping surgery.
“The very young transitioning has gathered a lot of support from the left,” Horowitz says by way of introduction of his latest “Ami on the Loose” video shot for PragerU. “But how young is too young?”
Horowitz did not get his answer at UCLA.
“How old is she?” asks one woman as she takes a pen from Horowitz.
“She’s five,” Horowitz replies.
“She wants to do the transition now, as a five-year-old?” the woman answers. “Okay. Good luck.”
“Sure,” says another woman.
“Yeah, that’s fine,” says another willing signer.
Horowitz goads some passersby, telling one Annie is a “girl of color,” and describing her as having “mean parents” to another. He tells them she “wants to go through the steps: hormones, surgery.”
“At five, she has a right be who she wants to be, correct?” he tells one. “She knows who she is. I think she’s fully developed enough to realize that. Her parents think that she can’t make that kind of decision, and we think she can.”
The pitch leads to yet another signature for Annie.
Horowitz, who shot the video last April, told The Daily Wire he didn’t expect his survey was going to work.
“I set the age at 5 because of the sheer absurdity of the idea,” he said. “Yet the left never disappoints on the downside. Of the dozens of people who stopped and talked to me only a single person objected to what I was doing.
“Imagine allowing a 5 year old to medically transition,” he added. “It’s frightening how the left allows ideology to supersede rational thought.”
The lone person who balked at Horowitz’s overture was incredulous.
“How old is she?” he asks.
“She’s five,” Horowitz answers.
“Five?” the man responds. “F***in’ right, their parents won’t let ‘em.”
While few were outraged at the prospect of a 5-year-old girl going under the knife for a sex change, one woman did air a medical concern to Horowitz.
“If you’re coming up to people during a pandemic, I think you should at least be wearing a mask,” she snapped.
