So happy to see Charlotte stick to their values. Maybe no basketball game but safe bathrooms for the women.


I'm sure that there are a lot of businesses in the area that are very unhappy about losing money.  Bathrooms have never been under attack except by overzealous monitors:/


Loosing money is never fun for anyone but that is that hard choice they made. I am glad they stuck to their values. As for bathroom monsters and safety that is your opinion not fact 


You'd be hard pressed to show any facts that any transgender individual has assaulted someone in a bathroom.  It's not difficult to show incidents of overzealous bathroom "monitors" being abusive.

my best friend  lives in North Carolina, and she is embarrassed by  her states stand. It is 2016 and if you are not inclusive, you will lose business, and you deserve to.

Well just have to agree to disagree then.

Born and living in N.C. let me say ~

 

I am SO glad the NBA made this decision.

 

Ignorant is ignorant and right is right.


 

As another North Carolinian I too am glad the NBA made this decision and I hope the expansion of companies withdrawing expansions, conventions, travel, etc. continues until the law is repealed.

Re: NBA Takes All Star Game Out Of Charlotte

Stick to things you believe in, whether everyone else believes in them or not.  

 

RESPECT all values, even if you disagree.  Just because I might not agree with your values, you have no right to disrespect me.  Your values aren't anymore important than mine.  Once again, everyone needs to practice RESPECT for all values.

 

If I had small children, I would have a huge problem with the restroom issues.  Why can't there be a 'neutral' bathroom, use it if you want to do so????

 

Herein lies the BIGGEST problem in the world.

I was born here and consider it home.  I am mortified at the bad JOKE my home state has become.

How is NC going to enforce this?

 

Will they make people carry their birth certificates with them?

What will they do when the BC says "Gender Undetermined"?

 

It happens, folks.
