Live with them or emigrate.

We're taking up a collection to send him to you. Do you want to contribute or run?

 

[Real_American11]

But they are the laws enacted in your country. Live with them or emigrate.

It is American to disobey unjust laws.

It is American to vote for change, it is American to resist authority with violence.

You could stone adulterers

In most cases they (male or female) should be.

cut the hands off thieves

Again, in most cases.

and treat your women with contempt.

I've not said anything like this, I believe that men are superior to women, that means it is a responsibility to provide for your woman, shelter, food, kindness, discipline, etc. Just like a child or pet.

Do you torture animals? If not why would you torture your woman?

If the law makers were looking to protect their kids and women folk, they need look no further than a raft of existing laws that cover specific offences, not a hysterical threat of imaginary ones, as is being implemented.

Despite that massive stupid, if NC and others wanted to show that they were being T-friendly, they could specify birth certificate proof, but allow trans people to legally change their birth certificates ( which were issued in error ) ... but they don't. That would mean that the process was both medically and legally overseen. It still wouldn't help trans people who were still transitioning, but at least it would be a step in the right direction. Before anyone leaps in with the chromosome thing - don't bother - you don't want to have to read all the medical references again

But the law isn't only about bathroom access but a much wider range of anti-LGBT discrimination. People can be fired from their jobs because they are gay or lesbian and they have no legal redress, and that is a leap backwards of 30? years.

There is no error, trannies are simply suffering from a mental disorder.

It should be treated with therapy and by fixing the chemicals in their brains and hormones in their bodies.

But the law isn't only about bathroom access but a much wider range of anti-LGBT discrimination. People can be fired from their jobs because they are gay or lesbian and they have no legal redress, and that is a leap backwards of 30? years.

So it's okay to hire them based on being gay but it's wrong to fire them for being gay?

I don't need to. Many UK public toilets have facilities that can be used whatever your gender or perceived gender identity.

We even have places where Dads can change nappies.

It's called civilisation.

...

So you supported the actions of the Black Panthers?

You agreed with disobeying the Jim Crow laws?

How progressive of you.

 

[Real_American11]

So you supported the actions of the Black Panthers?

Which actions?

You agreed with disobeying the Jim Crow laws?

Which laws?

NORTH CAROLINASTAN

North Carolina's Tourism Board asks that you consider a visit to Reichwing American Talibanland.

You do not have to fly to Saudi Arabia or Dubai to feel the heel of reichwing religious extremism.

You can experience it right here in North Carolina.

Forget Texas.

Forget the Virginia's.

When it comes to a theocracy North Carolina beats them all.

NORTH CAROLINA IS FOR INFIDELS

Ringo Starr and also Cirque du soleil have now canceled NC shows.

don't you find it a bit hypocritical that Cirque du soleil is still planning their upcoming show in Dubai, and they state how proud they are to have done a show in the UAE. countries where being gay can bring jail time or even a death sentence? All of these "holier than thou" artists and companies are full of bull shit

 

[oggbashan]

Which actions?

Which laws?

So you admit you don't know your own country's history - again?

How unreal an American are you?

Dubai doesn't have laws against using public bathrooms.

 

[Boxlicker101]

Dubai doesn't have laws against using public bathrooms.

Are you sure about that?

 

[phrodeau]

Are you sure about that?

Yes, I just called them.

 

[Real_American11]

So you admit you don't know your own country's history - again?

Are you illiterate? Or are you just a fucking retard?

The Black Panthers committed many actions and Jim Crow laws covered a wide range of legislation.

You asked if I "supported the actions of the Black Panthers" and "agreed with disobeying the Jim Crow laws"... I asked for you to specify which actions and laws...

Is that to complex for you?

 

[phrodeau]

Slow on the uptake.

 

[Real_American11]

Slow on the uptake.

Go back to fellating homeless black men, or what ever it is you do on the weekends.

 

[sr71plt]

don't you find it a bit hypocritical that Cirque du soleil is still planning their upcoming show in Dubai,

Yes, and so? What does that personally have to do with me reporting that they canceled their shows in NC?

Chuck Todd hammers NC governor over bathroom law: ‘You guys debated for like 10 seconds’

North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory (R) blamed liberals over the weekend for a state law that strips bathroom rights from transgender people.

On Sunday’s edition of Meet the Press, host Chuck Todd asked the governor if he regretted signing HB2 after 160 companies called for it to be repealed, and dozens threatened to boycott the state.

McCrory argued that his job as governor was to stop “government overreach” by cities like Charlotte, which had passed an ordinance allowing transgender people to use the restroom of their choice.

“It was the left that brought about the bathroom bill, not the right,” he insisted. “The city of Charlotte passed a mandate on every private sector employer in North Carolina, one of the largest cities in the United States of America. And I think that’s government overreach.”

“You talk about overreach,” Todd interrupted. “You say Charlotte overreached. How did the state of North Carolina, the state government not overreach in just the same way?”

According to McCrory, the legislature felt that it needed to act fast to stymie Charlotte’s ordinance because “once it came into effect, it would be harder to overturn.”

The governor admitted that he did not meet with transgender people before signing the law, but complained that the Human Rights Council was “more powerful than the NRA.”

“Which makes me want to overturn [Citizens United] because I don’t know who their donors are,” he quipped. “They are putting on a lot of pressure instead of having good dialog.”

Todd should have asked him if he wasn't just being dickish.

You do have a bit of a point. But that is a far country we have pretty much zero influence over. The fight against fascist NC can be won. It's also in our own backyard (speaking western civilization). Maybe we can't get some radical or backwards ME country to stop discrimination or suspend prejudicial and bigoted death penalties. But maybe and hopefully we can stop some region of the west slipping into fascism and religious intolerance.

But on the point of supporting such cultures and regimes you are correct, we should not be. No buying their oil, even if they just sell it to China, and no arms deals. No sign of Trudeau's Liberals cancelling huge arms sale deal with the Saudis. Be a sad day to watch the news and see protestors being herded about, or worse, by APV built in my town. Politically and economically tough decisions but should be done.

The ME buys our arms and luxury jets and sells us oil. What is NC doing for us?

The sweet and sour sow belly with the tits on it is to die for in NC>

I will pin point the reason for you. These entertainers would never say or do anything to point out the absurdity of the islam as it pertains to human rights. they do not have the balls. They would much rather pick the low hanging fruit so to speak.

Have you seen their costumes? It's clear that they do have the balls.

There will be imams in Dubai who object to Cirque du Soleil and encourage their congregations not to attend. There will be many pious Muslims who will speak out against such a wanton display, and prohibit their children from seeing the show. And it's nearly certain to sell out the huge venue that they're performing in.
