Good for the store owner, the shame attempt ended up backfiring.

A Star Wars shop owner in Washington doesn't "give a s***" about feelings anymore after a confrontation with a transgender councilwoman.

Councilwoman Tiesa Meskis, a biological male who identifies as a woman, confronted Don Sucher over a sign in his store that she said was offensive and anti-trans on Wednesday.

“If you are born with a d***, you are not a chick,” read the sign posted at the Sucher & Sons Star Wars Shop.

Meskis described the sign as offensive and requested Sucher to remove it.

"Look at yourself. For Chrissakes!"



Oh, man, I burst out laughing at that! What kind of idiots would vote for someone like that who is so obviously delusional?!

(And, btw, I do think, based on what I have read, that some people ARE transgendered, but I would bet money that the person in the video is mentally ill. Anyone who would go out in public like that, man or woman, is not "right in the head", as my grandmother would say.)

Ok, as a liberal and part of the lgbt community, I actually don't agree with the trans woman here. Or any other person who tries to shame businesses for something like this. I'm with the shop owner on this one.

I got a kick out of that old guy.

Kinda reminded me of Larry David in "Curb Your Enthusiasm", LOL.

The other guy needs help, IMO.
