Consider North Carolina’s 2016 ‘bathroom bill’, which required people to use the restroom that matched their ‘biological sex’ – the one noted on a birth certificate – in public schools and state agencies.

why is the US society soo at war with its self that it can not manage the variant differences in a civilised social process ?
allowing people to validate policing of peoples gender at the door of a public toilet is no different than the ideological fanatacism of terrorist's.
it is by its very definition a process of validating extremism by attempting to litigate a policing of this as a subjective force upon society.
it removes the social cohesive co-operative process of self control and inflicts a might is right doctrine of litigious psycho-opothy over the public civility.
