Anyone who gifts someone a pet is a fucking idiot. You simply do not do that. It is creating a responsibility for them to which they have not agreed. It is just plain wrong.

When President Obama's Department of Education sent a letter to every public school in the country demanding they recognize transgender bathroom rights, 13 states immediately moved to sue the administration. On Friday, 10 more states added their voices, refusing to blindly accept his social justice agenda.

State of Nebraska v. United States of America also included Arkansas, Kansas, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

In a news release, Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson argued the White House's bathroom mandate "supersedes local school districts' authority to address student issues on an individualized, professional and private basis."

Alliance Defending Freedom offered a statement fully supporting Nebraska's lead.

"Twenty-three states have now filed suit to stop this overreach, designed to force students to shower and undress in the same locker rooms and to share rooms on overnight trips with students of the opposite sex—something they shouldn’t ever be forced to do," ADF said. "The administration has exceeded its authority in threatening schools that choose to protect children’s privacy."

A new poll released by the Family Research Council shows that two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the White House's bathroom decree. FRC President Tony Perkins notes it is indicative of the country being fed up with the White House's dangerous social warrior agenda.

"After nearly eight years of federal overreach, we are seeing the American people stand up to Barack Obama's effort to fundamentally transform America."

"ICYMI: Almost Half the Country Has Sued the White House Over Transgender Bathroom Decree"

quote:

A middle-aged man who identifies as transgender was arrested Tuesday for taking photos of a customer while she changed in the women's fitting room at an Idaho Target store. Police booked Shauna Patricia Smith into Bonneville County Jail for one count of felony voyeurism.

Smith identifies as transgender and had entered the women's fitting room as a female.

The victim was trying on clothes inside a dressing room Monday when she saw someone taking pictures of her. Smith had allegedly reached over the stall wall with a cellphone and photographed the victim before fleeing on foot.

"The woman was begging for help as she chased the man," the witness told EastIdahoNews.com.

The victim repeatedly told the suspect to delete the pictures, but she was unable to catch the perpetrator.

Though Smith identifies as a woman, the witness identified the suspect as a man and the jail inmate roster lists Smith as a man named Sean Patrick Smith.

A news release stated that police used witness testimony and store security footage to locate Smith. They put Smith in custody after detectives interviewed the suspect. Smith faces up to five years in jail if convicted. Detectives are still investigating to see if there are any more victims.

Here is a section of Target's April statement on its controversial policy:

quote:

In our stores, we demonstrate our commitment to an inclusive experience in many ways. Most relevant for the conversations currently underway, we welcome transgender team members and guests to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender identity.

Target has received harsh criticism in response to its decision to allow transgender people to use the bathroom or changing room of the gender with which they identify. A pledge was launched by the American Family Association (AFA) in April to boycott Target stores. It now has over 1.3 million signatures.

The AFA claims that women and children are endangered by the store's bathroom and changing room policy, and proposes a unisex bathroom be provided "for the trans community and for those who simply like using the bathroom alone."

Oh, dear and then there is the beauty queen woman who took pictures of another woman in the shower for the purposes of fatshaming her.

The non-sequiturs that are anecdotes are being slobbered as synecdoche.

I find no such "Puppies for Orphans" organization anywhere.
There is an organization (www.helporphanpuppies.org) that tries to find homes for puppies that have been orphaned.
