Opponents of trans rights law get enough signatures for 2018 ballot question
By adamg on Wed, 10/12/2016 - 12:33pm
And just in time for Curt Schilling to run for the Senate on the issue. CommonWealth ponders the pairing and the impact on Charlie Baker, the Republican who signed the measure and who is up for re-election then.

Sad group of busybodies is sad
People who want to police genitalia. Nice.
Maybe we need a measure on the ballot that forces people to mind their own business. Here, and when it comes to things like kids walking to school or not wearing coats, etc.
Thank Heavens!
Our society has crumbled since 2003 when Gay Marriage became legal. Dudes are marrying their toasters. Dogs and Cats are considered legal couples. No one goes to church, and why should they, as God is dead. Kids spend all day looking at porn and families are forced to break up. Children are taught the dark arts in public schools and they grow up worshiping Satan.
Oh wait. None of that happened. In fact, not a single negative prediction has come true.
How do the people who oppose trans rights justify Trump support?
'Trump walked in on naked girls'
"Our first introduction to him (Donald Trump) was when we were at the dress rehearsal and half naked changing into our bikinis," says former Miss Arizona, Tasha Dixon.
Watch
Schilling
He's clearly unfit to govern anything, least of all himself; I know coffee tables with more intelligence than Curt Schilling. The question that matters is, how stupid is everyone else?
Ummm
lbb, to answer your question, just look at the two front runners of this presidential election.
I thought Americans were smarter than that... until this election.
Re: the question of how
Re: the question of how stupid is everyone else, apparently 34,231 people learned to sign their name so they could get this on the ballot, so that might be one indicator. . .
Is that a rhetorical question
Is that a rhetorical question?
Sad little people
Unfortunately, since I'm sure the main talking point of their campaign will be "OHMYGOD PROTECT THE CHILDREN AND WOMEN FROM RAPISTS," it should be noted that the story immediately preceding this one on UHub is about a forcible rape from a (presumably) cisgendered man.
Because, according to their logic, rapes and assaults that don't actually happen are scary. The ones that happen every day are fine. In fact, I'm sure many of them want to elect someone who brags about sexual assault to the presidency.
But he's just a normal white dude so it's okay.
Whatever. I'm done trying to make sense of these people who just clearly need a systemic reason to hate and fear other people.
It absolutely makes no sense
I'll apologize to Adam for bring a national level argument here.. but..
I'm going to leave this right here:
Sorry folks but it's true.
But Craig is right.. its nothing more than giving people the reason to hate and fear other people. Because if the issue really was about "children getting attacked in a bathroom", then Mr Trump would have slithered away Sunday night. But since he's a white guy with a natural born penis and identify as a male, it's OK for him to assault people.
And I'm sure if we polled these people who are supporting the repeal of this bill, I bet more than half of them are Donald Trump supporters.
Their logic just no longer makes sense.
Thank goodness
Sanity may return.
well
i admit it takes a certain level of courage to be so open about a bigoted and terrible opinion
i'd know
Ha
I lol'd
Please tell the class
How has this affected your life personally?
Other than the stinging shame of being told to myob?
President Trump
Senator Schilling, Yeah right.
Cue Fishy in...
...3...2...1...
I don't know about everyone
I don't know about everyone else, but I'm actually impressed with these people who managed to get so many signatures to put such a thing on the ballot.
If you got the time...
Certainly, if you have enough free time to devote to some serious junk checking in bathroom stalls, I'm sure the extra 8-10 hours a day to canvas for petition signatures isn't actually going to put a dent in your social calendar.
What I'm saying is these Bloodhound Gang losers ought to do something more productive with their time. College, for example.
Did they collect them at certain churches?
If so, the IRS would probably like to know.
They were almost universally
They were almost universally a bunch of geriatric busybodies in the central part of the state, so not that hard a job really.
At least I live in a city where I have local protections from these knobs.
