Is there any evidence at all backing such safety and security claims? Has restroom safety ever been jeopardized by transgendered persons? The only news I've ever seen in balls bigoted persons attacking transgendered persons.

And if they want to start protecting children, they should consider looking at the leadership of youth organizations and churches and other places where children have been victimized by the hundreds of thousands.

Sounds like these people should take a look at their book and what their precious Jesus says about such things:

Matthew 7:3-5 Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and look, the log is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye!

Red herring much? Moral equivalence much?

Protecting children starts with your own institutions, not a small subset of people who just want to shit in peace!
