A TRANS WOMAN DECIDED TO TROLL
TEXAS GOV.
GREG ABBOTT BY TAKING A PHOTO WITH HIM.
IT WAS AFTER
HE HAD A SPEECH WHERE HE ANNOUNCED HE WOULD RUN FOR
ANOTHER TERM.
SHE DECIDED TO APPROACH HIM AND TAKE A FRIENDLY
PHOTO, THEN PROCEEDED TO POST THAT PHOTO ONLINE WITH A
CAPTION.
THE CAPTION TO THAT PHOTO SAID THE FOLLOWING.
I LOVE
THAT BECAUSE IT IS SO TRUE.
THOSE BILLS DISPROPORTIONATELY
IMPACT TRANSGENDER INDIVIDUALS FROM THE LOWEST
SOCIOECONOMIC
STATUS.
HOWEVER IF YOU ARE FROM A POOR BACKGROUND, WHAT DO YOU
DO?
>> YEAH, NOTHING.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND, I HAVE NEVER
UNDERSTOOD THE INSTINCT TO SAY OR GIVE A DAMN ABOUT WHO ELSE IS
USING THE BATHROOM.
LISTEN, WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH TO GET TO
THE POINT WHERE YOU ARE AS CONFIDENT AS YOU ARE WALKING
INTO THAT BATHROOM ñ I'M NOT TO TELL PEOPLE TO HOLD IT.
>>I HAVE MANY THINGS TO SAY ABOUT THIS.
ANYONE WHO
DILLYDALLY'S IN A PUBLIC BATHROOM IS STRANGE TO ME.
ESPECIALLY ON A PLANE, IT'S DISGUSTING, WHY ARE YOU TAKING
YOUR TIME?
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC BATHROOMS RIGHT NOW.
THESE BILLS WOULD FORCE TRANSGENDER PEOPLE TO USE THE
BATHROOM THAT THEY WERE BORN WITH.
THESE FEAR TACTICS ñ IF
YOU ARE A TRANS WOMAN WHO IS NOW FORCED TO GO INTO THE MEN'S
ROOM, THERE IS A HIGHER LIKELIHOOD THAT YOU COULD FACE
RETALIATION THERE.
>>ALSO ANYTHING THAT YOU COULD BE AFRAID OF HAPPENING IN ONE OF
THOSE BATHROOMS IS STILL ILLEGAL.
TRANS OR CIS
GENDERED, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO LABEL IT, ATTACKING PEOPLE IN
GENDERED SPACES NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE IS STILL ILLEGAL.
WHAT
ARE YOU AFRAID OF?
ALL THE ACTIONS YOU ARE AFRAID OF ARE
STILL ILLEGAL.
>>IT IS ABOUT CREATING A SYSTEM TO HATE ON INDIVIDUALS YOU
ARE IGNORANT ABOUT.
JUST LIVE AND LET LIVE.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT?
>>EVEN DONALD TRUMP SAID TO CAITLIN JENNER TO USE WHATEVER
TOILET YOU WANT.
>> THEY ARE LIKE THE HOA.
IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.
LIVE
YOUR LIFE.
THEY HAVE TOO MUCH TIME IN THEIR HANDS TO THINK
ABOUT THESE STUPID ISSUES.
JUST FOCUS ON YOUR OWN LIFE AND DO
WHAT YOU ARE ELECTED TO DO WHICH IS TO REPRESENT THE BEST
INTEREST OF THE PEOPLE.
I'M SURE THERE ARE PEOPLE HURTING
ECONOMICALLY IN TEXAS, WHAT YOU FOCUS ON THAT, GREG ABBOTT,
INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON WHAT BATHROOM PEOPLE SHOULD USE.
>> THAT'S WHY I LOVE THIS WHOLE THING THAT HAPPENED.
IT SHOWS
THAT YOU ARE NOT UNCOMFORTABLE, YOU DON'T KNOW.
HE IS FINE,
NOTHING RUBBED OFF ON HIM.
HE IS NOT GOING TO BECOME A TRANS
WOMAN NOW BECAUSE OF SOMEONE THAT TOUCHED HIM.
>> HE PROBABLY SAID WHO IS THAT HOT CHICK THAT IS ABOUT TO COME
TAKE A PHOTO WITH ME.
>>SHE IS BEAUTIFUL.
