Gov. Charlie Baker was heckled and booed off the stage last night mid-speech when he showed lackluster support for legislation aimed at protecting the rights of transgendered people after protesters pleaded “Sign the bill!”
Baker spoke for about 18 minutes as 30 demonstrators stood silently in the front row holding signs that read “Public Spaces = Our Spaces. Trans Rights Now!” until he finally addressed the issue.
“We should not discriminate against anyone in the commonwealth of Mass.,” Baker said.
“If and when (the bill) lands on my desk, I’ll talk to all parties involved,” he started to say before a chant of “Sign the bill” broke out.
Baker tried to rally by returning to the opioid epidemic and urging those in the crowd to “continue to have those conversations,” about the public access bill, but he was shouted at and booed.
He then walked off the stage and left the ballroom at the Boston Marriott Copley Place.
The governor had been invited to address the gathering at the Boston Spirit Magazine’s LGBT Executive Networking Night.
The long-stalled bill extending anti-discrimination rights to transgender persons in public areas like restrooms could be debated in the Senate as early as May, Senate President Stanley C. Rosenberg said yesterday.
Rosenberg supports the transgender anti-discrimination bill, as does House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo.
Amid silence from Baker, Attorney General Maura Healey has pushed the bill — as have 43 companies and business groups, including Apple, Biogen, EMC, Facebook, Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce, John Hancock, J.P. Licks, Microsoft, National Grid, Partners Healthcare, Suffolk Construction, Uber and others who signed a letter in support.

Not exactly how Donald Trump would’ve handled the situation.
People with mental problems shouldn’t be allowed to dictate public policy.
But he’s the Governor.
Perverts heckling and heckled
No need to sign it...the legislature is something like 90% Rat.So very shortly we in the Gay State will have perverts giving women and girls the creeps whenever nature calls.
Mike didn’t the Gov there appease that crowd too not too long ago?
You don't get to Massachusetts much,do you?
Paid agitators. Probably by Soros.
This is what to expect when you’re dealing with people that believe marriage can be between two men or two women, that just because someone is born with male parts,that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re a man,are more offended by Christmas trees on school grounds than by a man in a dress peeing in the girls room at their own daughter’s school,and are convinced ALL of the world’s ills since the beginning of time are the fault of white American males.
I am REALLY getting sick of these FREAKS getting all their demands catered to...
What is all of this anyway.
Men use men bathrooms and women use women bathrooms.
Now what is the big deal about that concept.
Born with a penis you are a male, it really is that simple , even a mental midget could understand that.
So if my daughter aged 14 goes to the YMCA say in Quincy MA and uses the changing room then a guy can wear a dress and use that same changing room
?
If that is the case then these people are asking for child molesters, perverts and sicko;s to have a field day .
sick F?UUUU
This is what passes for a republican here:
Charlie Baker - Republican candidate for Governor
Gay marriage. Strongly supports same-sex “marriage”. Often brings up his gay brother who is “married” to another man.
Gay pride. Marched in 2010 Boston Gay Pride Parade, which also included transvestites, sado-masochism groups, and numerous other depravities.
Gay anti-family hatred. In gay parade Baker marched with extremely hateful anti-family homosexual “KnowThyNeighbor” activists who were also campaigning for Baker. (They published the names of all who signed the VoteOnMarriage referendum petition.) See more on that here.
Abortion. Supports abortion. States bluntly, “I’m Pro-Choice. I support a woman’s right to choose.”
Left of Obama! Told the Boston Globe that he is “to the left of Obama” on social issues.
Transgender agenda. While Baker was CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care the company had a policy of supporting “gender identity or expression.” In 2008 Harvard Pilgrim scored a perfect 100% from the national homosexual group Human Rights Campaign for its employment policies. (This means it even paid for employees’ “sex-change” procedures!)
Homosexual agenda targeting children. While Baker was CEO, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Foundation sponsored the 2005 GLSEN (Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network) Conference, pushing homosexuality on schoolchildren — the same event where the infamous Little Black Book was given out. Also at the time, Kevin Jennings (now Obama’s “Safe Schools czar”) was still running GLSEN.

I wonder if it's the kind of networking that would call for the function room to be thoroughly disinfected afterward.
On the whole the world would be a better place if homosexual acts were illegal and being a homosexual could ruin your life.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
“Not exactly how Donald Trump would’ve handled the situation.”
He would say how much he loves transgendered people.
