GOP Lt Governor Dan Patrick of Texas will today introduce a sweeping attack on the basic rights of LGBT Texas, SB 6. http://www.twcnews.com/tx/austin/news/20...usage.html

Dan Patrick has been a fervent supporter of Donald Trump, even after he bragged about sexually assaulting women and even admitted, on air, to crashing a locker room filled with teenaged girls, in order to oogle them while they were dressing. So its obvious that Dan Patrick is just doing this because he hates LGBT persons. Because he has no problem with elevating someone to the Presidency who does exactly what he claims needs fixing.

everything is a war on someone and something now

Actually, there's no rational leg for DJT supporters to stand on if they support this bill, other than pure malevolence towards the LGBT community. They obviously don't have a problem with men being in ladies changing rooms, even if the purpose is to oogle at teenaged girls changing (DJT). This is a naked attack on the LGBT community, based upon nothing more than animus towards LGBT persons (and a political gambit, designed to use attacks on the LGBT community as currency in the 2018 GOP gubernatorial primary - where Abbot and Patrick will likely face off)

This is nothing more than an attack on LGBT persons. No one can justify supporting this bill who voted for/supported Trump based upon anything but hatred of LGBT persons. #FlushSB6

You cannot be a credible liberal these days without claiming to be a victim.

There is no war on LGBT persons, Tom. Get over your butt hurt.

it goes both ways. We've had a "War on Christmas" for 2 decades now.

Oh cool - this thread again.

I heard the Bigot forces have penetrated the Transgender lines already and are driving deep into LGBT territory, pillaging as they go. Strangely, the opposition seems to be opening the way for them to move deeper into their territory. A possible pincer assault after Bigot forces outstretch their lines?

This is a naked attack on our community. Foisted by people who think that going into a children's changing room to perv at kids changing for sexually gratifying purposes is so worthy that they'll elect the perp President.

Please justify this bill using any other rationale than hatred of the LGBT community. Then apply that logic to Dan Patrick's support of DJT. You simply can't do it. And you know it.

Should DJT be impeached for going into a child's changing room to perv out? If so, should every GOP supporter of SB6 be asked to sign on to impeachment of DJT for said act? He'd be committing a crime under SB 6. He committed a crime prior to it too (leering at people changing is a crime - albeit hard to prove - but DJT admitted to it).

There's nothing to this bill but hatred of LGBT people. Full stop. Feel free to justify supporting SB6 and DJT at the same time.

a woman should feel safe in the restroom. She should not have to use a restroom with a person who has a *****. Sorry Tommy.

In this case a "trigger warning" is the sound of someone chambering a round.

Sensible legislation.

Good job Texas.

Pro Tip: lashing out and declaring there is a "War on Gays" doesn’t exactly bring people around.

You're simply concerned that your preeminent position (as a LGBTQ and as a liberal) in American society is under threat, staus wise. And liberals care a lot about status.

This whole thing is stupid. Why is the governor of Texas wasting time on such trivial garbage when he could be focused on more important issues? Why doe the LGBT community have to announce to the world that transgendered males deserve to use a ladies room? If a dude looks like a lady, then what's the problem? It's not like there is a "parts check" by a bathroom monitor before entering...

Tom's mad because he knows the GOP is about to fix his healthcare problem, and thats going to cause him extreme butthurt.

Said the guy willing to excuse DJT of sexual assualt and perving teenaged girls enought to elect him President. Your white privilege is showing. Looks like you think that white Billionaires are a protected class.

Where can a F to M go to the restroom in Texas under Dan Patrick's hate bill without being harrassed or humiliated? Nowhere.

How is this a fix? A woman, with female genitalia, is going to be required by law to use the men's room??????

Again, no one can justify this bill, using any other rationale than hatred of LGBT persons. No one in here has even tried. Because if they did, then they'd have to rationalize their support for DJT and SB6. Or the fact that the supporters of SB6 are Trumpeteers.

You cannot do it. You know you cannot do it. I dare any of you to try it.
