Yet another case, and ye more denials that these new bathroom policies will cause any problems. Or, as some have stated, not enough of a percentage to care. I guess we are supposed to worry about confused people being assaulted for how they look, and not worry about children or women being assaulted, because, gee, it might happen anyway. Well, some trans person in the bathroom not matching their sex might get beat up, too.

Exactly... If security in bathrooms is an issue, then we should be adding security guards...
There is literally no situation where this law is applied to a pervert. If you are caught for raping some one or perving out on children, that will be what you are charged with NOT a 500 bathroom fine. If you commit a dozen crimes. They do not charge you with all 12. They drop the small BS and stick it to you on the big charge.
So even in the worst case scenerio, this law will not apply.

Not sure where you are going with this - can you clarify?

He appears to be stating that if you were to for example, enter a bathroom and rape a child, you would not be charged with the lesser (potential) charges of entering a bathroom, public indecency, disturbing the peace and such, you will get charged with the more serious things such as sexual assault, rape, child molestation etc.
Ergo, these laws are not going to be applied in a fashion which prevents incidences of rape or will equate to charges. They will only be applied against innocent people, for example a transgender person just looking to go to the toilet.

1. This happened in Chicago, which, as far as I can tell does not have an anti-discrimination ordinance in place.
2. The perp in this tragic case was not transgender. Just a perv, being a perv, with uncontrollable perv urges who would have done exactly the same thing no matter what laws or regulations were in place.
This story has NOTHING to do with allowing transgendered human beings to use the restroom most closely aligned with their identity.

There's only one solution,
Unsecured IP Body cameras for all!!
Mom or dad can link their cellphones to monitor the situation and set off an alarm if they feel their child is in danger. Sounds crazy, I know.
Just you wait...

The human race is doomed, we have become so stupid, we really are just a big flock of sheep! Out of all the freedoms we should be fighting for we choose to fight over which ones chicks with dicks should have.

if it were my daughter at that age i would not let her go alone i would accompany her to a stall in the mens room so she could do her business with me there outside the stall when i know nothing could harm her. i dont have a daughter i do have 2 sons and they used the womans room with their mother several times cause i was at work and they had to shop.

no, but I am asking you just what do you think I was justifying? and yes, I agree that the mother (or FATHER) should have accompanied her into the bathroom. but then, if she was with her father and the only choice is women only and men only bathroom, we are back to either ignoring the signs, or sending her in alone, aren't we?
Except for the fact that this law/mandate would allow men, still with their male sexual parts in women's restrooms.
Evidence? You think transexuals have not been using the "wrong" restrooms all this time?
Before this mandate, if there were people around and saw a man dressed as a woman, they would be stopped from entering women's restrooms.

These men are mentally confused, even thou they think they are a woman, they still have male sexual organs. Meanwhile not all would act upon their male hormones, remember that they are mentally confused about their sex. Not all transgenders are homosexual, or bisexual. Quite a few still like using their male parts for intercourse with women and minors.
Women and minors also have a right to feel secure in the restroom, in the locker rooms, etc and not have males with them when undressing or using a restroom.
Do you understand the problem yet, or not?
BTW, this law/mandate makes it easier for such perverts (not saying all transgenders, there are other perverts who are not trangenders who will use this mandate as well) to do their heinous acts including violence, or attempted rape etc.
Before this mandate, if there were people around and saw a man dressed as a woman, they would be stopped from entering women's restrooms. Now, anyone who tries to do this gets arrested, and a lawsuit against them...

There have been no laws which prevented that. Until very recently, in a very few locations.

Laws do not allow things.
There were no laws either allowing it.
Just like they always have been able to. Unless, of course, you can provide an example of a law which had prohibited it.
Now, everyone who "thinks they are a woman trapped in the body of a man including those who still have male sexual organs and look like men" by law can go into women's restrooms, locker rooms, and other female private areas.
