Maya Dillard Smith, interim director of the Georgia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, has resigned over the ACLUs position on who can use which public restrooms. The resignation occurred after her two daughters were traumatized by encountering men in the womens restroom. Dillard Smith explained:
"I have shared my personal experience of having taken my elementary school age daughters into a womens restroom when shortly after three transgender young adults, over six feet [tall] with deep voices, entered. My children were visibly frightened, concerned about their safety and left asking lots of questions for which I, like many parents, was ill-prepared to answer."
Dillard Smith complained that the ACLU has become a special interest organization that promotes not all, but certain progressive rights and that the hierarchy of rights the ACLU chooses to defend or ignore is based on who is funding the organizations lobbying activities. Further expressing her disillusionment, Dillard Smith stated:
"I understood it to be the ACLUs goal to delicately balance competing rights to ensure that any infringements are narrowly tailored, that they do not create a hierarchy of rights, and that we are mindful of unintended consequences. I believe there are solutions that can provide accommodations for transgender people and balance the need to ensure women and girls are safe from those who might have malicious intent."
Unfortunately, as she has learned, Dillard Smiths view of the ACLU bears little relation to reality. The ACLUs goal like that of the LGBT movement is to shove a radical agenda down the throats of the American people, not to balance rights and find reasonable accommodations.
A transgender activist a biological male who goes by the name Cheryl Courtney-Evans responded to Dillard Smiths resignation by calling her lazy, ill-educated, and a bch who needs to sit down and STFU. No one who has seen LGBT activists in action will be surprised by this charming response.
Actually, Dillard Smith is well educated. She earned a degree in economics from Berkeley and a masters degree at Harvard.
Shes also a liberal Democrat. And until she resigned, she was one of the youngest ACLU directors in the nation and one of only three African-Americans employed by the ACLU in that role.
These days, one hears intelligent people assert that the culture war is over. It isnt, and wont be soon, because the left will keep looking for new cultural battlegrounds. Today, public restrooms; tomorrow, the world.
Stupid leftist
Perversion has that effect on common decency... intellectually, almost any perversion can be rationalized, but when those perversions accost everyday life, the senses are, well, accosted... there are some things that must be forever interned in the grave never again to be allowed to haunt common decency, this is one of them.
Blacks tend to be sexually more conservative than liberals, at least with regard to 90% opposition to same sex marriage, absolute disdain for transgenders, disdain for all homosexuality.
They are on average more promiscuous than whites and far less likely to marry, but it is almost all hetero. They even consider homosexuality a flaw of whites.
What liberals absolutely shut down are the blacks who say don’t compare LBGTA “fights” to the Civil Rights fights of blacks. Those people are silenced as fast as blacks who come out against abortion.
Liberals who push this idiocy are evil...
What kind of people 'protect' grown men at the expense of children? How would these children have felt IF their mother had NOT been with them.
BUMP!
I believe I saw a transgender person walking across the parking lot of my local grocery store, and I mention the locale because I think Obama is moving them into our suburban neighborhoods as a matter of policy. This young man had a beard but otherwise was totally girly in how he was swinging his arms and walking in tight jeans and touching his long hair, it was to the middle of his back. He was like the bearded girl in a circus. An older man was with him. It was like they were trying to attract attention.
That's easy, just tell the kiddies that the president is a perverted sociopath, and we just have to deal with this sort of thing for a little longer.
he was hired by allegedly bigoted racist Fox News!!!!! <<<
Yup!..and now we get to see how REALLY dumb he is!..I call him.....”Black Pawn Juan”...
Bawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
If she hasn’t learned her lesson by now and still vote Democrats. She’s crying crocodile tears. Us Democrats aren’t suppose to live by the laws we pass on others
Ann Coulter often talk about this hierarchy of rights. This is actually right from Animal Farm. Some animals are more equal than others
Karma.....
>> AFTER DAUGHTERS ENCOUNTER
Only if there where more willing apostrophes.
Thank you for illustrating what Free Republic is all about
By having more than one story, in this case 3, about the same subject but from different sources, the various viewpoints can be analyzed and thus give a greater understanding of the complete situation.

This is sexual harassment, and you do have to put up with it. Sue those little girls for leaving in tears and thereby hurting those poor trannies’ self esteem and sexual identity.
When will they start putting urinals in the ladies room?
The ACLU will be right on it.
I guess he didn’t get the message that Muslims are more important than blacks. Liberals have to understand the protected people change from time to time.
