At least 28 Planet Fitness locations have been targeted with bomb threats after the gym franchise sparked fury for banning a customer who shared a photo of a transgender woman shaving in the bathroom.

From Florida to Alabama, dozens of locations in eleven different states reported hoax bomb threats following weeks of backlash against the chain's 'trans-inclusive' locker room policy and the decision to ban the member, as reported by Media Matters.

Patricia Silva, 67, made headlines in March after she claimed to see a 'man with a penis' washing themselves in front of a 12-year-old girl in the women's locker room.

Silva was barred from the gym in Alaska, and the gym franchise refused to reverse its decision despite its valuation plummeting by $400 million in five days after the incident.

No bombs were found in any of the facilities, but the threats forced dozens of businesses to evacuate their buildings and prompted FBI agents to launch an investigation. The first location targeted in the string of incidents was in Fairbanks, Alaska, where Silva used to work out and claimed to have seen 'a man shaving in the women's bathroom.'

Silva posted a video describing her experience at the gym on Facebook in early March, along sharing a photo of the person online.

On March 13, Planet Fitness revoked Silva's membership and filed a police report against her, citing her violation of gym policy by taking photos and/or videos in the locker room.

An email sent on March 15 states that bombs had been placed inside the Planet Fitness location at 1255 Airport Way, and threatens to 'blow up the building', according to local outlet KTVF.

Fairbanks Police Department found no bombs inside the property and said the threat was 'bogus'.

Wanna bet it was a bunch of trannies who made the calls?

By all means take videos of yourself describing the effrontery—but do not take photos and then post them of anyone in the locker room. No matter who the person is.

Gays and trannies are angry that conservatives are leaving planet fitness for a myriad of other gyms…so they’re making faux death threats

[Uversabound]

No women would use a gym like Planet Fitness to shave

Yup ... self-inflicted victimization while bearing false witness against their neighbors in order to try and swing the public sentiment in their favor. Seen it too many times. Not gonna happen. Here's to hoping Planet Fitness goes completely bankrupt for their stupidity.

I guarantee that every one of these calls was made by a f@ggot in a dress.

We used to lock up these mentally ill wackos, but now we let them run around free.

They aren't right in the head and they need to be locked up for the good of society.

I could not agree with you more.

I went into the local Lowes here in NH on Friday night to get a truckload of $2/bag mulch.

At the service desk was a dude wearing a shoulder length blonde wig, eye liner, mascara, painted finger nails and he had boobs. Or at least he was wearing a stuffed bra under his shirt. On his name tag it said:
