Quote:On Tuesday night, the City Council of Oxford, Alabama unanimously approved a new ordinance that will punish individuals for using restrooms that do not match their biological sex as stated on their birth certificate. The policy is a direct response to Target indicating that trans people are welcome and will be respected in their stores.
Quote:Anywhere within the city’s police jurisdiction, it is now a criminal offense for transgender people to use restrooms that match their gender identity unless they have undergone surgery and successfully changed the gender marker on their birth certificate.
Each individual violation will result in a $500 fine or up to six months in jail. CNN reported this week that “most people urinate four to seven times during a day.”
The ordinance is actually more expansive than North Carolina’s HB2, which only applies to government buildings and public schools and universities.
Quote:In a prepared statement after the ordinance’s passage, Council President Steven Waits said that the council passed it “not out of concerns for the 0.3 percent of the population who identify as transgender,” but “to protect our women and children,” according to the Anniston Star.
Complete and utter moronic garbage. How can such a stupid decision be reached?
How do they ever imagine this will be enforced? Have these pissweasels stopped to think for a minute about that? They never noticed trans people using bathrooms before, what makes them think they will now? What is the procedure? "He/she doesn't look legit, I'm gonna pull down their pants and check"? Are they themselves willing to submit to "nob out" procedures if someone calls them out?
