      That's a very cute tweet but it doesn't mean much. Talk to me again when Texas is losing millions in potential revenue

        I read in our local paper a while back where some women had complained about a man in the women's restroom who had been loitering around inside. This is exactly one of the reasons why a bill like this is necessary. If a law like this is not in place wouldn't this man only have to say he is a transgender?

        To to cater to a few we are putting at risk and inconveniencing the majority.

          I imagine loitering around a bathroom and being a public nuisance still won't be allowed.

          And what id the majority is fine with these bathrooms? Or god forbid, unisex bathrooms

              the Ninth circuit court that has been overruled often, because they are

              owned by lefists/dems.

              Meanwhile, libs gloat about liberal judges appointed by Bush. It is actually true.

              Karl Rove was the driver behind that - it placated the dems, reached out to them.

              Surely nobody thinks that happened with a dem president.

                  Funny how our mainstream media fails to report the fact that the liberal ninth circuit court's rulings get overturned by far more than any other federal court. In all the stories I have seen on national news they never put that in...I wonder why?

                    and why would the msm allow itself to be owned?

                    seems the left is dangerous to careers... like, if you do what they want in

                    Congress, and in liberal state governments, and even liberal school districts,

                    etc etc.. they will leave you alone. But you disagree with them, don't do what they

                    want... all hell will break loose, they will slander/libel you, protest in front of your home,

                    threaten to kill you, pretend some little thing you didn't do, was a giant thing

                    that you did,... try to get you fired, try to get your family's business to fail...

                    whatever they can think to do to "fight" over control, they are ready to do it now.

                      WATCH: Gov Greg Abbott just CALLED OUT the NFL for trying to interfere in Texas business!

                      Texas Governor Greg Abbott was on with Fox News today, calling out the NFL over trying to interfere with legislation in Texas. Abbott took great umbrage at the NFL trying to dictate to Texas what is acceptable and basically told the NFL to mind their own business, pointing out the ample problems the NFL has with its own players.

                      Here’s a partial transcript:

                      The NFL has its own share of problems. The NFL coddled its players who refused to stand for the National Anthem. The NFL has its own problems with people, such as violence against women. The NFL has its own problems to solve. The last thing the NFL needs to do is to get in the business of telling states how to operate their own political operations.
                      Imagine this. If the NFL tries to come down on the state of Texas, I might just pass a bill in the state of Texas mandating that all NFL players have to stand and put their hand on their heart when the National Anthem is played.
                      If the NFL really wants to solve this problem about bathrooms for people who are transgender, the NFL should impose on all of its teams to put their own bathrooms into their stadiums to accommodate those with transgenders as opposed to trying to dictate to states what laws they must comply with!

                      You can watch the rest in the clip above.

                      I must say I love how Abbott isn’t backing down from this fight. It’s ridiculous on its face that the NFL would rather sacrifice the safety and privacy of women and children by trying to keep Texas from passing this bill, and I’m glad Abbott is calling them out on the carpet.

                          sounds like extortion to me. "You pay us protection money, or we'll let you

                          lose your business to our thugs"

                            Uhh... The NFL is completely within their right to not do business in Texas because they disagree with the laws there. Same thing that's been happening to NC.

                              sure. but establishing football teams in states doesn't give them the right to

                              political run those states. Sure, they can pull their superbowls from Texas.

                              but they can't try to be the Texas gov with threats of economic intimidation, that's

                              a bit different. Pull em, don't pull em... but using the ability to pull them as coercion..

                              not the same thing.

                                  here's something else - there are a lot of republican governors - they coud all tell

                                  the NFL to go shove their superbowls. Let the NFL have the superbowl in the middle

                                  of a blizzard in Green Bay. and have a nice day, NFL liberal sombeitches.

                                  Getting into political coercion is the worst idea the NFL could have. Letting kaeperclusterfooknick

                                  alienate half of the NFL audience was an indicator.

                                    True. I wonder that how many of them let their children go into "unisex" bathrooms.

                                    I doubt hardly any. It seems to be more taking down of American society/structure/culture

                                    to effect a new utopian kind of existence in gov. Star Trek happyland equality, especially

                                    everybody gets to win the lottery and be rich....

                                    Something not mentally healthy or normal.

                                    Sometimes I wonder about people who go off the deep end over all this, and wonder

                                    if it's like John Lennon's song "imagine there's no country, it's easy if you try..." etc etc.

                                    Dreaming of utopia, and hate reality and everything in it accordingly.

                                      What if the majority doesn't want the law?

                                      And again, for the thousandth time, you don't get freedom of consequence.

                                        then it gets changed via congress. The NFL is a majority??????

                                        for the thousandth time, nobody doesn't know that. But like I mentioned,

                                        a lot of Rep governors in the south could tell the NFL to shove their superbowls.

                                        and the NFL would end up not hardly having any good state to have it in.

                                        Of course consequences can bounce either direction.

                                        the left only wants consequences going towards the right.

                                        I'd have to ask Gipper on the law, but deciding to pull the superbowl, fine,

                                        but threatening to pull it if the state gov doesn't violate it's own law...

                                        I wonder if that is possibly racketeering. ....where's Gipper......
