North Carolina school system to allow pepper spray | News & Observer

this is what happens when you're ignorant and choose to stay that way. there is a huge difference between pervert predators (most of whom are ordinary heteros) and trans.

The heck with the bathroom, they should make it mandatory for all teachers.

The one board member who said it would be useful against transgenders in the bathroom - should be removed. Again, just because some person is transgender - doesn't make them a predator.

I agree. Gun owners like me who feel it needed to carry a firearm should likewise we treated the same and places forced by law to accept my choices.

This policy will go away immediately the first time a student decides to pepper spray another student or teacher. The amount of the check the school would have to write to the person that was assaulted with the weapon the school allowed on campus would be huge.

Unless you're getting patted down or they have a metal detector - I never understood why ccw'er's cared about what establishments thought. The only time I won't cc is either at the aforementioned places (security checks/metal detectors), or when I'm drinking alcohol. Beyond that - establishments can have their cute "gun free zone" or "no guns allowed on premises" signs...they'll never know I had one, unless a criminal does something stupid.

Exactly. and THAT is the crux of the issue here. people like them are equating trans with predators/perverts. their minds are so closed and they refuse to find out what it means to be a trans.

I don't understand why this law was needed.

It was essentially a don't ask, don't tell situation and there weren't many problems. I'm sure people have used restrooms that were trans and no one else in the bathroom knew it.

This is just like the false "stranger danger" theory and the fact that the vast majority of sex abuse/assault is done by someone the victim knows in their life.
