Well, I agree. No one is going to make that person go to a women's bathroom. But the LAW says he/she must, and this law was just passed, so it can't be classified as "arcane, no longer observed" like some obscure law regulating the rules for duels with pistols or hitching horses when entering a saloon.

I don't know about the Charlotte law, but I agree that seems nonsensical as well.

Again, I find all of this strange and confusing.

I'm pretty sure though, that the determining factor for one of these people using a bathroom shouldn't be a subjective view of the general public as to who looks "transitioned enough."

I've got to ask. Has this been a pervasive problem in North Carolina? Is there an epidemic of "normal" men using a women's bathroom?

As far as I know there has never been an issue. I’m on the other side of the state, so I’m not really in the know as to what is going on in Charlotte. All I know it was pushed for by the LBGT group headed by some sexual predator, which doesn’t make sense to me, as I believe he was convicted for acts with a boy, so I would think he would rather go to the men’s room.

The law certainly should have been written a better way than how it was, but I also think the proper thing Trump should have said would be something like:

“I don’t know the exact issue with the NC law that was recently passed, so I don’t think I should comment on it without the facts. I don’t personally have a problem with transgender people using the bathroom that they want, but honestly, it’s a state issue, so it should be something for them to decide”.

^That would have been the presidential thing to say. At this point I feel like he jumped in on it exactly like Obama did with the Trayvon (and other) cases, where he gave it two cents without know the whole story.
