PayPal Punishes North Carolina for Transgender Bathroom Law
Charisma News ^ | 4/5/2016 | Nandita Bose/Reuters

Last month, North Carolina became the first state to enact a measure requiring people to use bathrooms or locker rooms in schools and other public facilities that match the gender on their birth certificate rather than their gender identity.

The law, which overturned a Charlotte city ordinance, was widely interpreted as an attack on LGBT rights. State lawmakers also voted to prohibit local governments from enacting anti-discrimination protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

From the article: “... Last month, North Carolina became the first state to enact a measure requiring people to use bathrooms or locker rooms in schools and other public facilities that match the gender on their birth certificate rather than their gender identity...”

The statement in the article is slightly misleading but accurate if read with the proper understanding of the semantics used. "Public facilities" in this case means "government owned" such as city, state, or local government offices and agencies. The law requires all government owned facilities to have restrooms based on biological gender. It also prohibits local governments from enacting any "non-discrimination" ordinance that would compel businesses, schools, or churches to allow biologically MALE individuals to use female restrooms, showers, locker rooms, or vice versa. The law does not impose any restrictions or requirements on companies or other organizations; if PayPal wanted to allow men to use the ladies room in its proposed facility that would have been perfectly permissible under the law.

Quite a Hobson’s choice for NC. Punish it’s citizens by acceding to a radical transgender/homosexual agenda, or put up with all the left wing attacks. I yhink they made the right choice.

Correct...If PayPal doesn’t mind the perverts in their own restrooms at their business site, that’s not a problem...

North Carolina has passed a law stopping it in public facilities...

My one experience with PayPal resulted in identity theft years ago. Never again.

Ebay used to own Paypal, but recently they split and are now separate companies.

But they’re still very closely allied.
