The state has undone not just local ordinances protecting transgender people, but all LGBT nondiscrimination provisions across the state. Literally overnight, people in Charlotte and across North Carolina can now be fired from their jobs for being gay, turned away at hotel chains for being gay, and even forced to show their genitals to a police officer if the cop thinks they might be transgender.

I don't get why the state needed a special session to do this.

Awesome.

Tomorrow starts here!

You wouldn't think that if a cop mistook you for trans gendered person and asked you to pull your pants down.

Where is that language in the new law?

Democrats walked out on the vote. Blame them.

In the world of leftists increasing spending less than expected is a "spending cut" and removing in place laws are "new laws"..

I also love the left still claiming men *never* suspiciously use these laws to be in a room with little girls.

A Seattle, Wash. community is in uproar after a man undressed in the women’s locker room at a local pool, seemingly to test a new rule that allows transgender people to use the bathroom of their gender identity, according to King 5 News.

An unidentified man wearing board shorts walked into the women’s bathroom of Evans Pool, in the heart of Seattle, on Monday evening.

The women inside the locker room at the time attempted to kick him out, but the guy refused and said “the law has changed and I have the right to be here.”

does this set precedent for cities to not be able to regulate other things? I'd be more worried about that then bathrooms.

It's amazing how African American politicians have been co-opted into this nonsense. There are at least a few black, Christian leaders with a spine.

What gays do disgust me, but I don't think you should be able to fire them for it unless they make it an issue and a distraction. It is foolish, however, to hire someone that would not mesh with the team cohesiveness. As far as the bathrooms are concerned, you should be required to use the bathroom that goes with your equipment, not birth. I don't want a post op tranny dude in the bathroom with my daughter either just because s/he/ze was born a she.

Is there anything in this law that makes it easy to fire a gay person for being gay?


I am all in favor of keeping the boys in the boys room and the girls in the girls room.

Post the language of the law. The writer is a far left LGBT activist

Local governance is great until the locals disagree with you. Then the state or federal government should step in. Got it.

Nope. Despite what some of the liberal news outlets say they just added language clarifying that restrooms and change facilities are for BIOLOGICAL SEX only. Nobody can be fired or not served for being queer.

Good question. I don't know and don't really care. While I do pass through North Carolina from time to time, I neither own a business there nor am I on the LGBT spectrum so whatever is in it has zero effect on my life. It is for North Carolina to sort out.

Calling someone else a liar without proof should be a bannable offense.
