Obama threatens, gives deadline to North Carolina on transgender law
Spero News ^ | MAY 4, 2016 | BY MARTIN BARILLAS

Today the Obama Justice Department warned North Carolina state officials that their state stands to lose millions of dollars in federal funds unless they change a measure limiting access to bathrooms for transgender people. In a letter to Gov. Pat McCrory, DOJ contends that they and North Carolina would be in violation of federal civil rights law if the bill passes.

According to the Justice Department, the state law violates federal law under Title VII of the U.S. Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex. The Obama administration says that with the passage of House Bill 2, “the state is engaged in a pattern or practice of resistance to the full enjoyment of Title VII right by employees of public agencies.”

This is more perversion of the meanings of terms and of moral sensitivities. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act NEVER INTENDED OR MEANT for the term 'sex' to be construed in anything other than anatomical sex. It never meant to include a person's 'interpretation' of their sex.

Note that the Obama perverts cannot prosecute alleged discrimination against homosexuals because 'sexual orientation' is not included nor alluded to in the Civil Rights Act.

So these Obama perverts discuss amongst themselves how to 'retaliate' against North Carolina and the best they come up with is stretching the meaning of the term 'sex' to include not only gender but also those that view themselves as 'transgender'. The term 'transgender' was not even a remote consideration in 1964 when the Civil Rights Act was passed.

Perhaps it is time for Obama to be honest with the country and admit his homosexuality. He owes the American people to admit the real basis of his policies.

I live in North Carolina.If I were giving the governor advice, I would suggest that HE send obama a message: Withhold all the federal funds you want...8 months and your sorry rear is gone. Oh, yes, by the way, I am suing you for your ILLEGAL actions.

What’s wrong with the women in this country? Why aren’t they raising hell over this like they did ten years ago when there weren’t enough stalls in the women’s toilets? It’s about to get a lot more crowded if they don’t stand up to the Kenyan and his Nazi perverts.

I hope Trump’s Gov adopts the same strong arm tactics against states with sanctuary cities and whatever else he doesn’t like. I also hope there are lots and lots of executive orders. Obama please lead the way a$$hole. Thanks for strengthening the Executive.

Uh, if this is going to happen, WHAT becomes of the people in the past that have been arrested and convicted etc for being in the wrong place at the wrong time - Man in Ladies or Lady in Mens and of the people were jailed for having sex in a rest room, how about the people that were ‘turned in’ because some one reported one going into the ‘wrong’ rest room and ‘they’ discovered another ‘crime’ going on.

As to NBA & NFL etc, it has been suggested that they have no business complaining about ‘equal rights’ until women and midgets are playing and starting in their leagues.

‘We’ can be just as idiotic along these lines as the idiots that are setting policy.

“What’s wrong with the women in this country? Why aren’t they raising hell over this”

Because a shocking number of women appreciate and support homos. From their point of view, its a friendly male who isn’t trying to get into their panties. Women are leading the charge in this.
