Transgender North Carolinians get restroom-access win [Federal Judge Perversion of Law]
Savannah Now ^ | 8/27/16 | JONATHAN DREW and EMERY P. DALESIO

A federal judge ruled Friday that two students and an employee must be allowed to use restrooms matching their gender identity at University of North Carolina campuses, and he said they have a strong chance of proving the state's bathroom-access measure violates federal law, a judicial rebuke that transgender rights advocates hailed as a victory.

U.S. District Judge Thomas Schroeder temporarily blocked the University of North Carolina from making the three plaintiffs follow the restroom provision of the so-called HB2 law as the larger case makes its way to trial in November. His final decision on the law won't come until after trial.

I think that I’m going to start “identifying” myself as a “minority”. Native American would be cool. Nah. Too many honky libs are already using that one. I’ll think of one.

Absolute nonsense. Their gender identity is s mind decision, their gender is what they were born as and does not change because they think it does. This judge is insane. Should be disbarred. So of a female is in the restroom and one of these males that think they are a females walks in can she sue for sexual harrassment? She should call the police.

There should be a single occupancy restroom for these freaks but that doesn't further their agenda.

Men dressed as women do not belong in the women's restroom or locker room.

On the other hand I sure as heck don't want them in the men's room with me.

“It’s interesting that GWB appointed almost as many leftist judges as the clintons did, and oh man, did the clintons shit pack the federal courts with some real winners.

Must be a clinton-bush crony thing.”

Hopefully, folks finally are coming to realize that Bush 1, Clinton, Bush 2 and Obama are all pieces of s**t of the first order.

The disaster in the Middle East which has impacted Europe and now the USA was begun under Bush 1 who began the destruction of the relatively secular Iraqi state held together by Saddam Hussein. He was followed by Clinton who did nothing when the World Trade center garage was bombed by Islamic terrorists. Then came Bush 2 who completely destroyed the secular Iraqi state and killed Saddam Hussein. Finally, we are under the control of the closet Muslim now residing in the White House who has been successful in bringing the US to its knees.

Left handedness should definitely be at the top of the list. It affects 10-15% of the population and knows no racial boundaries. This “affliction” has been demonized in many cultures for thousands of years, and its “victims” are handicapped in a variety of ways, such as gear boxes and stair rails on the right and a paucity of desks for lefties in the classroom. And don’t get me started on self-esteem issues. I’m still traumatized by having to use regular scissors!

President Trump needs to tell these fascist judges that they issue opinions, not laws.
