Horrific Florida Bill Would Imprison Trans People for Using Public Bathrooms
Slate ^ | February 6, 2015 | Mark Joseph Stern

Gay marriage has been legal in Florida for a month now, and at this point, even the state’s hardcore conservatives seem increasingly resigned to the fact that marriage equality is here to stay. Accordingly, Florida’s more bigoted legislators have decided to turn their ire toward another maligned, disfavored minority—trans people—by proposing one of the most viciously sadistic, hypocritical bills the legislature has ever considered.

The author is correct about one thing; if this bill forces private business owners to not allow transgender into whatever bathroom they want to use, this is not a good thing.

Society is rapidly deteriorating. Filling out job apps online and I get to the end where they ask if you need any "special accommodations". It would be interesting to say "I like using the wrong bathroom". Three possible responses: 1) hey, a protected minority, let's hire him/her or 2) uh, what? or 3) [delete key]

Is there presently a penalty for a man’s using a women’s restroom, or vice-versa?

Sounds like a great bill to pass!

Force the faggots to use an outhouse back in the woods.

Are those automatic trans people or manual trans people?

Once they got gay marriage they will demand other things, including full and unhindered access to your children

I'm not sure. Probably indecent exposure or something worse.

Just got to shake heads at the terminology towards normalcy in this country.
So now if you dislike gays/trans/freaks, you're a bigot.

But bigoted gays against Christians is trumpeted as some freakish civil
rights accomplishment. Send all of those freaks Prison.

The business can be sued if they let men in the women’s room and the real women are upset

This is what you get when you allow things to get out of hand with accommodations for faux marriage , faux gender alteration , special rights here there and everywhere... you eventually have to draw the line sometime... and this far down the road it all seems ridiculous.

If this passes I’ll visit the local gay club , be quite offended , and sue half a dozen tranny’s including the singer on their outside marque ...

What; Are the toilet police going to be inspecting the ‘crotchtal area’ of all ‘public’ toilet users?

I suppose it would be kind of a giveaway if someone wearing a dress or having major protuberances in the ‘chestal area’ is using a urinal in a men’s room. Use a stall, and no one is going to know, unless they already know, or unless the subject is a really, really bad tranny.

All seems pretty silly to me.

The problem is that “transgender” means too, too many things. Those that feel like they should have a dangler, those that are ‘thinking’ about having the dangler removed, those that pretend that the dangler is removed, and those few that actually have the figurative ‘stones’ to actually do it.

Go ahead, browse Google for a true, clear definition of “transgender”....you’ll sift through a bunch of sick crap that will still leave you not knowing exactly what it is. I tried it once (finding out the “what is it?” stuff, not removing the dangler part :0) )

Knowing this, I can most certainly feel empathy for any lady that is uncomfortable with the potential of having a dangler/dangerless thing using the same bathroom as me.

Well, at least the author was objective and showed no left wing bias.

I quit reading when the article stated, “...from using the bathroom that matches their true gender.” Are all Slate “reporters” homosexual? They have no grasp of reality, or they’re pushing the homosexual agenda, constantly.

I’ll live my life quite happily not knowing the “true” definition. And no, I don’t want em in the restroom or dressing room with me, especially when I have to take my 2 year old with me.

If I had a business, I word have two bathrooms marked “family bathroom”. In it I would have one stall and one urinal and it would have a lock on the main entrance door. So if I took my grand-daughter to the bathroom, I would lock the door, she could do her thing, and then we would have privacy and no threat of someone trans-gendered barging in a woman’s bathroom.
