The Florida legislature on Wednesday passed a “bathroom bill” that bans transgender people from using public restrooms that don’t align with their sex at birth.
The GOP-controlled Senate voted 26-12 to approve HB 1521 — and the House passed it a short time later in an 80-36 vote.
The measure now heads to the desk of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is widely expected to sign it into law.
Under the bill, known as the “Safety in Private Spaces Act,” people could be slapped with a second-degree misdemeanor if they use public restrooms or changing facilities that do not align with their sex assigned at birth.

Nice phrasing in the headline NY post. Sorta like “don’t say gay” bill. And some folks wonder why a lot of people say 🖕 to the msm.

We need to put portapotties outside all businesses for the Sexually Disoriented to use. There is nothing in the Constitution that says businesses have to provide sh*thouses to the public.

No...it targets Safespaces for women!!!Dems love to twist words, and we let them. The Dems/media love to use the word, "anti-choice" instead of "pro-life". Yet we never turn it around and call them "pro-death", which would be fair play.

Nah, it targets perverts who want to sneak into the wrong bathroom. If those perverts happen to be mostly “transgenders”, then that is their own fault, not anybody else’s.
To: joshua c
Yep. Medically impossible for a woman to be raped by a man, if the man is wearing high heels.
To: ChicagoConservative27
No, the bill stops the transgenders from targeting normal people. We’re the victims here.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Florida passes ‘bathroom bill’ that targets transgender community protects normal, sane people. [Fixed it.]
To: ChicagoConservative27
Once again, DeSantis caves to the Bushes and RINOs to protect women. Damn him!

“sex assigned at birth”
Sex is not assigned at birth, it is observed. What criteria do they think is used for the “assignment”?

It is a stark indicator of these strange times where such a law even needs to be made.
