Transgender woman arrested after argument over bathroom

SHELBY, N.C. — (snip) A controversial topic reignited. Police called over a trip to the bathroom.

“We don't really get this kind of call much,” said Captain Steve Canipe with the Shelby Police Department.

Police say 22-year-old Michael Lloyd, who identifies as a woman, used the women’s restroom last Sunday. According to the arrest report, that upset another customer, David Short.

He told police his wife was in the bathroom at the same time and he “didn’t feel that was right.” He called police, who responded and explained the law.

“The officers instructed the patrons who were having a question about if it was legal, of course it is legal for this young lady to use the bathroom that she identified with,” Canipe said.

Police say the reason for the arrest came a few minutes later.

“They had already left the restaurant decided to come back in and I guess express their opinion by actually spitting at someone, so that is where the problem came in,” he said.

Llyod's family had no comment on the entire situation.

The highly controversial original law known as the "bathroom bill" was repealed back in 2017. Now, a transgender person is able to use the bathroom of the gender they identify with.(snip)

Lloyd was released on an unsecured bond.

A spokesperson for Denny's released this statement:

"Denny’s does not tolerate discrimination of any kind. We are were saddened to hear about the altercation between two guests that took place in Shelby last weekend. Our bathrooms policies across the country allow guests to use the bathroom of their gender identity. Our staff are trained to ensure everyone, regardless of their gender identification is treated equally and we expect our guests to treat everyone in the same manner."

I do not use the word “transgender”...In my opinion, they are “transvestites”...

I refer to them as "gender confused". Some actually believe they are women. They are, of course, mentally ill and should be receiving the appropriate mental health counseling/therapy.

My wife would be like a wolverine on one of these mentally screwed up people. The trans whatever would have a bad day.

BTW my tranny works just fine. All four gears will engage.

But by allowing a man in a woman's restroom you aren't treating female customers fairly or equally.

These men want access to vulnerable women and children with no other men present to stop them.

They should be perceived and treated as a public menace until they understand that if they wish to participate in society they will accommodate themselves to it rather than demanding the reverse.

Gee, that kinda sounds like allowing a man to compete in a woman’s track meet, doesn’t it? Especially the treating the females unfairly part.

“police, who responded and explained the law”

How nice. Too bad they don’t do that when someone is bothered by a legal open carry. In that case the OC is treated like a criminal.

"we expect our guests to treat everyone in the same manner."

There is an obvious solution to this issue: Never become their "guest".

We have a local man who has been playing trannie for decades. He loves to use the women’s bathroom at Walmart but if there is a Muslim woman in there, he will apologize and walk out. That tells you everything you need to know.

Looks like Denny’s goes off the list too. Their statement was so condescending. While we are catering and wasting time on the whims and fancies of the 2%, our country is being invaded by illegals (disease, crime, tax dollars, rape, murder, etc.) and no one seems to care.

____________

be serious.

This is the country and the laws that conservatives have permitted.
