So-called "Small Govt" Republicans call session at $42K a day just to override a city's extension of equal rights (Charlotte: hotel, layoffs)

Oh please let it be legit. I am sure there are a lot of people who would like to see who signs it.

If it was a legitimate pledge, it "has ways to try to shut that whole thing down".

People from a certain spectrum has been repeatedly told that Compromise = bad. Compromise is what we need.

There is nothing better for the country than a strong Democratic and Republican parties that WILL compromise with each other.

Must be a lot of Republicans holding their head high today with the announcement that Great Britain has issued a travel advisory for its residents traveling to NC and MS. Helps with those daily flights in and out of NC from the UK.

People are getting tired of the silliness.

Interesting report. "Gender fluid people can feel like a girl one day and a boy the next." I guess that's the ultimate goal, one bathroom and shower for everyone. I mean, how could conservatives not support that, what with all the tax money saved on separate facilities

What the he*l is wrong with you? If they aren't hurting you, then why do you care? If they do something actually illegal, the laws that are already on the books will take care of them.

Personally, I don't care. But I'm not a school administrator that has to decide between legitimizing a mental illness or maintaining common sense

Do we need to provide litter boxes on days students feel like kittens?

That's the problem! There are laws in place for punishment but what replaces a person's dignity after it's been violated?

Thank God your not a school administrator. Even Trump this morning on the Today show said NC made a big mistake and they are paying the price.

Gee, even Donald Trump hates HB2 and says the NC legislature was wrong to pass it. He said he'd welcome Caitlyn Jenner to use the bathrooms at his Trump Hotels. This really illustrates how batsh*t crazy the NC legislature is! Yesterday, Phil Berger said he doesn't want to change HB2 in any significant way. Time to turn Phil Berger into hamburger! I guess outside of Greensboro, Guilford and Rockingham counties where Berger seems to easily win re-election, must be a real "Jerry Springer Yahoosville" area!
