North Carolina House Passes Bill Voiding All Local LGBT Nondiscrimination Ordinances

Again you fail to see the difference.

The issue effecting the majority's "peace of mind" is based on an IRRATIONAL fear of a transgender person being in the same public restroom.  Just being in the same public restroom with a transgender person DOES NOT put you in any risk.

The issue effecting the transgenders "peace of mind" is a very RATIONAL fear of harassment or possibly acts of physical violence against them.  Just being in the wrong public restroom DOES put a transgender person in risk.

Public policy has to be based on preventing actual harm instead of irrational fear.
