HOUSTON (KTRK) -- On the first day of early voting, two new ads were released to abc13. Both of them are available here, but we are told will start airing on broadcast and cable television Tuesday.

Lt. Governor Dan Patrick held a news conference Monday to unveil his offering. In the 30-second spot paid for by Patrick's campaign, the Lt. Governor stands against a flag draped background and tells viewers, "City of Houston Prop One is not about equality. That is already the law of the land. It's about allowing men in women's locker rooms and bathrooms."

Watched the clip. Fran Watson, the woman of color, saying the bathroom ordinance protects people based on race....I don’t believe blacks or Asians are being denied bathroom access in Houston.

They also have one saying it will protect former veterans allowing men into women’s restrooms.

Classic misdirection.

Just list what NEW protections are afforded by this law over existing legislation.

It is all about the faggotry and its support is not locally funded (just as the lesbian mayor’s candidacy was out of state funded to advance the homosexual agenda).

In the second new ad, the anti-HERO group, Campaign for Houston, uses clips of an abc13 newscast in which Mayor Parker says "This just doesn't happen!" in reference to transgender women following girls women into the restroom for illegal purposes. The ad then highlights a 2012 case in which a transgender woman was ticketed for using the women's room at Parkland Hospital. The woman in question, Paula Witherspoon, is a registered sex offender for crimes committed against teenagers in 1990. At the time, Paula was Paul Witherspoon.

Triumph of the perverts.

Ultimately this law is more than just about bathrooms, it is about making employers and businesses and churches and individuals bow down to the homofascists.

"Proposition 1 is for all Houstonians. We have 15 groups that is protected: race, sex, color, national origin, veteran's status, pregnancy. We're saying that real Houstonians are facing discrimination. We want to make sure we have this ordinance out there for those Houstonians."

I've heard that it may prohibit giving hiring preferences to veterans.

And "national origin" does not mean "legally" in the Estado Unidos. Could also provide cover for the city's policy of protecting illegal immigrants from prosecution.

Also, classic misappropriation of language. I notice that the acronym for this filthy policy makes the word “hero”
