Are you guys now going to boycott the NBA?
The NBA (and Bruce Springsteen, and anyone else or any corporation who/that was stupid enough to step on this landmine) has a HUGE public relations problem on their hands.

See my posts in the Bruce Springsteen thread to understand why.

Not really, good for Bruce Springsteen and good for the NBA....even though their all star game is nothing more than a popularity contest.

Yes; it does matter. They said only they are not putting their OFFICE in NC - not that no one in NC can use paypal.

Plus, why should they have to put up with BS bigotry in their own country??

Good for NBA, PAYPAL, and Springsteen.

Anyone man can put on pants and walk into a girls bathroom now. You do realize that woman on the door doesn't actually prevent a man from entering, right?

Not really? Did you read my posts relating what's going on in Illinois? How many American parents do you think will be OK with their MINOR kids being forced to relinquish the right to not be subjected to indecent exposure while in school? Indecent exposure committed on school grounds (and/or with a MINOR victim) is a FELONY in most states for a reason.

Do the math... How many Americans have school-aged kids? How many transgenders are there?

Yes, I read your freak out posts, and yes, not really. Though I am sure you got some "boycotting" to do.

I don't think kids in general should have to get naked in front of each other.

This law was not ONLY about the bathroom issue. It also removed all protections from LGBT at the city level. In addition to that it removed the ability of ANYONE to take a discrimination case for employment, public accommodations or for any reason at the state level.

So... you, too, are cool with captive MINOR school kids being involuntarily subjected to FELONY indecent exposure?
