You got nothing.
'hatred of LGBT persons' is the only answer you'd accept. You've shut your mind to the idea that pervs would take advantage of such a rule, while simultaneously accusing someone of being just such a perv. Your methods and inability to consider any other position than your own are obvious. Makes for a horrible argument unlikely to convince anyone of anything 'good' for you.

Sure. Women deserve to be protected from perverts... and I KNOW there are more women than TGs, and I'm betting there are more pervs than TGs. You can disagree with the specifics of ANY bill, but the idea that women deserve to be protected from perverts who would seek to use your imaginary slight to engage in what is essentially sexual assault is pretty universal.

We shouldn't have to expose 150mm women to 30mm perverts to appease the imagined 'wrongs' of 20mm TG'd women. (making up numbers... I have no idea... but I'm betting I'm generous)

If you've got another solution (and I've presented them before myself) then speak up. So far all I've ever heard from you is SCREW those 150mm women's rights, unless you can use them to besmirch Trump.

It would be difficult to imagine a greater rebuke to your brand of cry-wolf liberalism than the election of a Donald Trump.

You would be well served to eliminate this idiot meme-phrase from liberal-lazy response lexicon. It's has no impact other than signifying that you are afraid of how the conversation is going.

The internet is full of people of all stripes saying “I’m not afraid to let my little daughter go to the bathroom alone because transgender men are not rapists or child molesters.” Yes, agreed; this is not about Bad Trans, but about straight people CLAIMING to be transgender men so they can camp out in women’s bathrooms and those pretenders might be rapists and child molesters. When you intentionally reverse a taboo nobody knows what will happen.

Yes, probably, all this ‘bathroom legislation’ is a solution in search of a problem in general. But then the Catholic Church looked the other way while a few (very, very few in fact) priests victimized young people in their care.

Again, and read this part carefully: the moral and mental character of genuine transsexuals does not matter here. What matters is that they are outnumbered 50:1 to 100:1 by genuine, convicted perverts. So the question is: How many cases of assault are we willing to tolerate?

That’s the possible problem liberals aren’t acknowledging. It’s as if liberals can’t wrap their heads around the notion that not everybody plays by their unicorn-and-rainbow rules. I’m not certain if that’s plain stupidity or willful obliviousness but I’m heavily leaning toward willful obliviousness.

Your side was willing to elect an admitted pervert to be President of the United States. You seem to take glee in the fact that DJT won the election with a minority of votes as a rebuke of liberals, but are unwilling to consider the impact of electing a pervert President.
Bill Clinton was a pervert and those were some prosperous years. Donald Trump is off to a great start on the job front and peace with Russia front.

I don't think the bill is motivated by hate but rather the fear that children and wives will be subjected to danger or molestation in female restrooms. Rightly or wrongly, that is the motivation.

Why are all these bills being proposed by MEN? Just sayin'

This bill will do nothing to 'protect' women. And you know it. All it will do is harrass LGBT persons and put them at risk of violence and harrassment.

You were perfectly willing to excuse DJT perving out on those teenaged girls and bragging about it....so please don't ask my community to face the abuse created by this unecessary bill, introduced solely as an attack on the LGBT community.

And yes, hypocrisy is an issue here too. And its friggin' staggering.

It's not like there is a "parts check" by a bathroom monitor before entering...

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.

I'm not defending anything. I think coming out with this law is stupid. I also think the LGBT community went about this in an extremely stupid way too. Don't you think it's stupid to bring all of this attention to the group that a guy who wants to be a woman also wants to use the ladies room? Why not just dress like a woman and then quietly use the restroom?

Funny how we never had this problem until transgendered men decided they had a right to squat and pee in the womens restroom next to little girls. They cant squat and pee in the mens restroom. They cant squat and pee in a single multi-use restroom. Oh no. They must be allowed to squat and pee in the ladies restroom.

Yes, thats what this country has degraded into.

Want to know why Obama failed to save american jobs? Because he was being pulled around by the dick by people like Valerie Jarret who though this issue was more important than saving rust belt jobs or fixing the healthcare issue they caused.

Plot twist. Its Dan Patrick. It limits the access of LGBT persons to the restroom based upon the fallacy that LGBT persons should be treated like sexual criminals. It will contain zero new protections for persons harrassed or assaulted complying with the law. It comes from a man who excuses DJT's sexual assaults on women and perving out in a kids changing room.

And you and I both know that Dan Patrick is simply using this bill to pander to extreme bigots who hate LGBT persons in his upcoming challenge to Gov Abbott.

What do you expect the bill to say?

In this case a "trigger warning" is the sound of someone chambering a round. 03-lmfao

Update from the front:

Though Bigot forces have yet to be stopped in the drive deeper into LGBT territory, they have met with some resistance. Apparently in a split with the rest of the LGBT Coalition forces, the militant paramilitary group know as Lesbians have begun a fierce effort to stop the penetration of LGBT territory all on their own.

This is a clear indication that the LGBT Coalition strategy of allowing the deep penetration of their territory by Bigot forces is not universally accepted on their side, and may indicate widening divisions amongst the LGBT factions in the battles to come.

Stunning developments from the front:

The scrappy delaying tactics of the Lesbians appears to have worked as part of a grand LGBT strategy. Now the rest of the LGBT forces have surrounded the head of the Bigot invasion with consistent yet surprisingly gentle force. Bigot attempts to pull their forces back have stalled, with the head now firmly trapped by the suddenly clinching LGBT pincer attacks, bringing much relief to the beleaguered Lesbian partisans.

More to follow as it becomes available.

How about this...jail for anyone harrassing someone complying with the law (even with words like Tr*nny). With strict sentencing.

I didn't think so.

RE: It starts today - GOP war on LGBT persons
According to this estimate, there are 193 million public toilets in the United States:

https://www.quora.com/What-are-there-mor...-or-People

Now assuming that each public restroom has an average of five toilets, and each officer of the Poop Police can watch two restrooms (one Men's, one Women's), that's 19.3 million new jobs.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics counts 7.4 million long-term unemployed in the U.S. as of Dec. 2016.

And there we have full employment. The bigly genius that is Trump strikes again.

Megan’s List is over 50x longer than the estimated number of genuine transsexuals, for sake. How many more people are going to need to clearly, unequivocally, state that this this is not about harming LGBT persons, and about protecting people from sexual predators?

How many, Tom? 'Cause currently it's trending at 100% of us. You think that claiming otherwise invalidates our position but in reality, you’ve only made yourself look absurd.

And your side elected the guy who probably raped Juanita Broadrick, who paid a settlement to Paula Jones, who was rightly accused of adultery by a host of women, and who is said to have gone to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island with underaged hookers.

Yes. Yes! We have won, and it is glorious. Your side made the personal the political and now the shoe is on other voter's feet.

Megan’s List is over 50x longer than the estimated number of genuine transsexuals, for sake. How many more people are going to need to clearly, unequivocally, state that this this is not about harming LGBT persons, and about protecting people from sexual predators?

How many, Tom? 'Cause currently it's trending at 100% of us. You think that claiming otherwise invalidates our position but in reality, you’ve only made yourself look absurd.

Then combine it with mandated access to restrooms by trans persons, criminal penalties for harrasment of LGBT persons complying with the law, protection of employment for LGBT persons, etc.

Youre perfectly willing to legislate restrictions on LGBT persons, but are unwilling to legislate any protections whatsoever.

Heck many of y'all cannot even stop insulting Trans people (calling them Tr*nnys) or even referring to them by their real gender. And some of y'all do it as a way of insulting them and demeaning them.

This is 100% about harming LGBT persons. Full stop. Why punish group a because group c does something. And do it while insulting them, while refusing to accept them as they are, and while refusing to protect them with special laws (you advocate special laws that will hurt them) from the harrassment, discrimination, and violence they will face by complying with this law.

Furthermore, the very 'problem' you guys want to solve is one you excuse by someone you elected President.

Please.

Plot twist. Its Dan Patrick. It limits the access of LGBT persons to the restroom based upon the fallacy that LGBT persons should be treated like sexual criminals. It will contain zero new protections for persons harrassed or assaulted complying with the law. It comes from a man who excuses DJT's sexual assaults on women and perving out in a kids changing room.

And you and I both know that Dan Patrick is simply using this bill to pander to extreme bigots who hate LGBT persons in his upcoming challenge to Gov Abbott.

What do you expect the bill to say?

so you have NOT read the bill? 07-coffee3

Uh...I'm okay being out on that limb. We will see when Dan Patrick puts forth his legislation. I'm sure it will not contain any new protections for Trans persons complying with the law and will not jail those insulting or assaulting them for complying with the law. Nor will it mandate access to an equal access restroom with a reasonably similar line and location.

can you point that out on the bill? 07-coffee3

I'm on a limb. I'm sure there will be zero protections for Trans persons complying with the bill, or any protections will be completely inadequate.

Dan Patrick has bigots in the 2018 GOP Primary to pander to. That limb is strong.
