"I believe that religious institutions ought to be protected and be able to be in a position of where they can live out their deeply held religious purposes," Kasich, who's running for the Republican presidential nomination, told host John Dickerson in an interview for Sunday's "Face the Nation." "But when you get beyond that it gets to be a tricky issue. And tricky is not the right word, but it can become a contentious issue."
"In our state, we're not facing this, so everybody needs to take a deep breath, respect one another, and the minute we start trying to write laws, things become more polarized, things - they become more complicated," he added. "Obviously I don't want to force people to violate their deeply held religious convictions, but we'd have to see what that's all about. I wouldn't have signed that law from everything I know, I haven't studied it."

He is saying this is totally a religious issue, maybe to add to the fire against Christians. I think it is more a right to privacy issue and a safety issue, especially for women and girls.
There are rumors he bats for the other team...
It’s gone beyond just rumors.
Only in the demented minds of leftists and SJWs is the bathroom accommodations for 0.00001 percent of the population-who might very well be suffering from a mental illness-a civil rights issue.
He even said he should have run as a democrat. Yet some folks are saying if their guy (between the top two) doesn’t get the nomination, they would rather see Kasich win, out of hatred for the other guy.
Not surprising. The major impression I’ve gotten from him is WIMP... just like the rest of the GOPe.
Kashit, the ugly Turdle.
Hey John, shut up and go home already!
Rumors, h3ll! I think his record and statements have shown it. FWIW, the Pennsylvania polls have Trump so far in first place, I’m inclined to vote for Cruz just so this disgusting Putz doesn’t get second.
The more fuss that is made over this, the more likely that proponents of the bill will be asked for examples of men who masqueraded as women to molest women. And then they will be asked how we should be expected to identify such masquerades.
I believe molestation, or any other propositioning in public restroom areas, is already illegal. No matter what sex the propositioner or the proposee was born as, or may be masquerading as now.
I don’t see any problem with meaning well here. I do see a big problem with enforceability. Statutes have gotten nullified for being unenforceable.
It sounds like he is confusing the two bills that were signed in Mississippi and North Carolina.
That's the story of the GOP over the past 8 years. I believe in conservative ideas BUT . . . . .
It’s not so much a religious issue as it is a matter of privacy. You don’t need to look at what the Bible says to analyze this issue.
The guy is a fraud. He was waiting to see which way the wind blew on this then comes out with his statement.
Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner! This has noting to do with religion, but rather all about human dignity, which should transcend people's religious beliefs. I guess the problem is that somehow decency has escaped those who are not religious!
John Kasich supports giving perverts access to little girls
I read something about Pennsylvania’s delegate process being shady, don’t remember the details.
Ohio will then have to have it become an issue on the ballot to circumvent the politicians.
Go over their heads to the people.

So maybe he would sign it.
Why is this guy a republican?
