Transgender North Carolinians get restroom-access win

RALEIGH, N.C. — 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.

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.

Passed in March, HB2 requires transgender people to use restrooms in schools and many public buildings that correspond to the sex on their birth certificates, rather than their gender identity. It also excludes gender identity and sexual orientation from statewide anti-discrimination protections.

The photo above contains two biological females in the ladies' room.

And you know this to be true because...?

Gov Pat McCrory who refuses to turn the state into a cess pool of immorality and perversion because of the Obama edict is currently trailing in the polls to leftist Roy Cooper, who if elected will immediately finish turning NC in the Southern version of New Jersey. Pray that McCrory wins.

I hope some gents get into coattails, top hats, and tap dance for the ladies while they go pee. Oh, and be sure to bring cameras and keep their shoes extra shiny for reflection-photos.

Yes, I know. Roy Cooper has some very smooth ads running. I need to donate to Pat McCrory’s campaign - will do that this week.

Michael Cade Hughes is the "man" in that photo. Born a woman, she is a well-known tranny activist who writes for the Huffington Post. She took that photo to demonstrate what she feels is the absurdity of laws that segregate people into the restrooms that correspond to the gender they were born as.

So, if you saw "Ms." Hughes follow your wife or daughter into the ladies' room, what would you do?

That's great, psyco perverts win another round. The dog needs to bite that tail that is wagging it.

Can still get a degree credit and not attend classes at UNC; just be an athlete.

The one according to their plumbing. This way they are confronted with their illness, and everyone else knows who to shun.

Who does the plumbing check? Will there be genital inspectors standing by? Because if I saw the "dude" in the photo I posted using the men's room, I wouldn't give it a second thought. If I saw her complying with the law and following my wife or daughter into the female's restroom, I'd try to put a stop to it --and then I'd be the one looking at prison.

What about gay dudes? What restroom should they use?

Question is, what are we going to do when we get there?

“Just think, the lady’s room is getting a lot more exciting”

Indeed, methinks the excitement is only beginning. My suspicion is that this will lead to n increase in concealed-carry permits for women. There will be an incident at some point that will be resolved by a woman taking defensive action with the assistance a handgun. Whether she actually has to fire it is immaterial...things then will become very exciting indeed.

Tell the truth. About everything. Stop capitulating in your mind when the truth is uncomfortable. That’s how we got where we are now.

The truth is, there is no such thing as transgender. Those who desire to change their gender are mentally ill, and obsessed with an impossibility. When their obsession is not restrained, it’s no surprise that we get more of it.

Funny how we never had a problem with this in times past.

Tasers stratetically aimed could get interesting too.

Why bother with boring old bathroom trips? Make them safaris! Free action-adventure-thrillers in the bathroom near you!

‘What about gay dudes? What restroom should they use?’

We men need to brave it for the sake of the womenfolk. That’s chivalry. It’s not supposed to be as safe in the men’s room. Just how it is.

And I agree. Chivalry is being made a felony in the US.

Sick.

Regarding human anatomy: ‘Who does the plumbing check?’

It used to work this way:

If no incident occurred, no check is made. If police are called in, then the police arrest the pervert.

What percent of the population is seeking to be a sex they aren’t? Lotsa noise for just a few folks. Similar to the queers who are around 3.8% and that’s generous.

I'm pretty sure this is how it still works.

I dunno. I don't expend too much mental energy with concern over who's in the restroom with me.

Yes, they have a name for too, it’s fluid Transgender. They can switch back and forth depending on how they feel.

Amazing how the left uses “science” to spew their global warming lies but refuses to use “science” to identify humans.

Pathetic.
