KKK Grand Wizard......Are you referring to Sen. Robert C. Byrd, democrat, West Virginia?

The KKK was the strong arm of the Democrat party when it was formed.

Strom Thurmond was a Democrat in his younger days when he too was a racist.

Your whole damn party is full of racists and reprobates. And no, shithead, you can't wiggle out of this. They are ALL facts.

nope, no proof of either claim. 1000s of women have not flipped out about this in the entire US.
Its only nutsuckers so far that are trying to keep their own toilet antics from others.

You must mean 1000's have not flipped out yet.

After the news broke recently about Target’s preposterous policy of allowing any man to use the women’s restroom for any reason (and vice versa), which they masqueraded as “inclusiveness” for “transgender” customers and staff, the backlash was fast and has not stopped growing. Videos are being shared on Facebook of parents objecting, undercover videos show the nonexistent standards and total lack of safety and security for women and girls, letters and op-eds have been written and, now, money has been lost.

Shares of Target Corporation Common Stock (TGT) have fallen from $84.14 a share on April 19 to $79.27 a share as of Friday evening, 10 days after the transgender policy was enacted.

The stock price had fallen by 2.52 percent on Friday alone, as of 4 p.m. Ultimately, the drop “would represent a corporate loss of over $2.5 billion,” according to the Family Policy Institute...

Target has seen a dip in people who say they’d consider shopping there the next time they need something, according to data compiled by YouGov BrandIndex, a research company that conducts daily surveys measuring brand perception.

Before Target made its policy public last week, 42% of people said they would consider shopping there the next time they needed something. As of Wednesday, that number had dropped to 38%, which YouGov CEO Ted Marzilli says is a “significant” shift.

Of course their brand is suffering.

Look, this is not a difficult thing to grasp. In fact, those who continue to purport not to understand the backlash or disgustingly try to smear it as some kind of “transphobia” are just being willfully blind and dishonest. They are scraping for kudos from the feel-good, do-nothing crowd. Look at me, I’m “tolerant”! But it’s not a hard issue. Target said men can go into a woman’s bathroom and that women who aren’t comfortable with that can basically go jump in a lake. They don’t care. Because progressives don’t care...

Corporate America: Learn from Target’s mistakes. Just because the self-righteous celebrities and self-indulgent rich people like Donald Trump that you hang around with make you feel socially pressured to cater to leftist ideas doesn’t mean you should. They may seem loud, but the rest of America can be a lot louder when we want to be. About 2.5 billion times as loud.

As a side note, and I apologize in advance for the derail, but DaddySatyr, you directed a personal attack towards LadyPact that in my observation is not true. LadyPact isn't one to lie. Of the posts of hers that I have read, I find her responses to be rather even-handed. I cannot say the same of the posts of yours that I have read, although I admit that, until this thread, I have largely avoided reading your posts over the last several months because I find your overall tone to be distasteful.

Color me shocked. One of Exiled's sycophants doesn't like me. If his opinion (which you're channeling) mattered to me, I'd be hurt. As it is, I'm amused. Y'all amuse me.

So again, one person's feelings outweigh those of "lots of other people"? Wouldn't that set a dangerous precedent?

Blacks represent only about 13% of amerika and their "feelings" were finally recognized as outweighing the feelings of the majority of white people who would be offended by their pressence in restrooms. The precedent has already been set and if you do not like it tough shit. This is the united states of amerika not the united states of bigots and racists.

Doh! Why didn't I think of that example? I guess because I don't live in the USA.

No, their rights were taken into account.
It is far different than saying that because I would rather shower with women I should be allowed in their locker rooms regardless of how they feel about it.

I'm trying to think of something that was enshrined as a right without it first invoking a strong feeling .... I can't. My guess is that's *why* something becomes a right.

I was focusing on public toilets and didn't notice that it had shifted to locker rooms. But sod it - who cares? I suppose I'd be in equal danger from some huge gay male in a locker room as any woman would be from a man in a women's locker room - but I stopped worrying about that once I was past my teen years.

Actually it isn't, which is exactly why you keep insisting on discussing locker rooms rather than public toilets, because you fully understand that there is indeed a difference, and it allows you to avoid talking about the bathroom issue, which is what the whole kerfuffle was all about in the first place.

How can you say that seperate bath rooms for males and females are discriminatory but seperate locker rooms are not?

Can you honestly tell me that a trans who is too uncomfortable in a mens room to use it is somehow comfortable in a mens lockerroom?

I have to admit, I'm biased against this link. This was not a "social experiment" regarding the trans* issue. This was very specifically a MAN, rather than a transgendered female, going for a certain type of response. In fact, there is another link found on the same page about WHY this was set up to fail. Even going so far as, if this person really wanted an unbiased result, why didn't he get his trans* friend to participate, rather than being an obvious cis-gendered male who displayed no actual signs of transition?

It makes me wonder. Do people really understand the transition process? Do people not get that it's not zero to sixty in a hot minute? Lacking that understanding is EXACTLY what makes people say, "well, what if a guy just put on a dress?"
