North Carolina Passes "Anti-LGBT" Bill

Which members of the North Carolina state government have claimed that this bill was meant to prevent the spread of STDs?

Let me rephrase that: North Carolina could, in part, be passing this bill for medical reasons.

Then that would make them more stupid than I thought they were.

Then the idiocy of this law shot up over 9000.

They could, in part, be passing this bill to hide their latent homosexual desires or desires of bathroom rape.

Understand the problem with your statement?

If this was the real reason then I wonder when will they make faith healing and witch doctors legal next.

And we have our first casualty; a ciswoman tased repeatedly by police because she wouldn't explain why she was using the female toilets.

Apparently wanting to finish taking a dump before dealing with police is belligerent behaviour now.

I pray she sues the governor, the legislature, every officer involved, and the entire police departmen. I pray she wins. I hope it goes all the way to SCOTUS if it has to, to get this law struck down.

It's from a satire site.

North Carolina implemented this law because their legislature and governor's office are full of bigoted douchebags who like to take a shit on anyone who isn't a cookie-cutter copy of them. Try again, honey.

Posts like this help nothing and take you down to the level of the people you're trying to debate.

I don't feel obligated to coddle those who can't be bothered to figure out the difference between shit and Shinola. Not sorry in the slightest.

Story's a fake.

We got had?

Yuppers. They have stories of a U-Boat found in Lake Ontario. A viking ship found in the Mississippi.

In the past they had stories of:
* A baby was born with a stigmata.
* A lottery winder died after gold-plating his testicles
* A fourteen year old virgin impregnated by a flu-shot
* A serial killer in a slaughter house.
* A meth-head baby sitter eating the baby.
* mummy rape.
* and so forth.....

They generate these stories for attention and ad revenue

Well, fuck.

[Vassenor]

Sorry. >.<

[Kelinfort]

The right to know whether there is a fucking homo in the bathroom or not trumps the right to take a shit peacefully *nods*

The right to take a shit and not get AIDS from sitting on the seat, or the latter.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha....

Holy shit...that's quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever heard. Mostly because of how stupid that statement is.

The reasons you offer are utterly absurd, there is no possible medical issue here. But politicians are sometimes stupid about that sort of thing, so maybe some of them do believe that, somehow, trans people will spread disease.

However, since you cannot find any politicians claiming that this bill was passed for medical reasons, I can only conclude that they are your reasons.

[Liriena]

Sorry. >.<

I'm way angrier with myself than I am with you. I've spent a lot of time over the past couple of years keeping an eye out for fake news and stuff, and I took this one at face value.

You will be if that habit of posting gets you warned and banned. Just saying. Being foul-mouthed in a debate doesn't make you look all that wonderful.

Medical reasons. North Carolina is passing this bill for medical reasons. Having intercourse often passes material on from one person to the other. If you'd took Health and Biology, you'd get the idea.

If you took health or biology, you'd know that you are spewing bullshit out of your mouth.

To be fair, a lot of biology classes in US High Schools don't cover this stuff, and the health classes rarely do, and if they do, its usually that right-wing abstinence-only shit, with a heaping dose of fearmongering on the side.

Explain to me how saying someone - in this case, North Carolina's governor and state legislators - did something for the express purpose of taking a shit on a demographic group constitutes gratuitous foulmouthery? This ought to be good.

It is so difficult to get high quality fearmongering these days. So much of it is processed, with sugar and fats - but not tasty trans fats, of course, thanks FDA! - and salt, really, it just isn't very good.

"Douchebags." Seriously, I should not have to point this out to you.

Insulting but not cursing. I shall now be dispensing with further response to your threadjack.

Except, you can only get HIV/AIDS from fluid exchange.

For fucks' sakes, you can't even get it from being bitten (unless the skin is broken).

What if you bite their lip?

I've been gone for the weekend for a backpacking trip, but I have returned to be here.

Immediately rolling in with the updates:

"I do believe in our high schools, in our middle schools, in our universities, we should continue to have the tradition that we've been having in this country for years. And we have a women's facility and a men's facility. You know, it's worked out pretty well. And I don't think we need any further government interference," Republican Gov. Pat McCrory said on "Meet the Press".

So government interference is okay when it's denying transgender people their rights to use the appropriate bathroom but it's not needed further when it is trying to grant those rights?

Cirque du Soleil has also cancelled their North Carolina shows

Fuck that was a fast response.

But yes, contact with blood does increase the risk. But saliva doesn't transmit HIV/AIDS, so...yeah.
