Journalistic flourish at its best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: black;font-size: 14pt\">The truth is that the matter under immediate dispute is that North Carolina had the <em><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif'\">chutzpa<\/span><\/em>, as contended by homosexual\/transgender lobbying organs, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/interactive\/2016\/05\/09\/mccrory-v-united-states-america\/\">to insist<\/a> that only men, being defined as human beings with male physiology, be allowed to enter men\u2019s restrooms, and vice versa for physiological women being allowed to enter only women\u2019s restrooms. People who are transsexual and claim to really be the opposite gender than their natural bodies may indicate allege that the North Carolina law is discriminatory, as it prevents physiological men who self-identify as women from using women\u2019s restrooms, and the reverse. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: black;font-size: 14pt\">We are not speaking here about people who have necessarily undergone sex surgery and now have anatomies of the opposite gender of their birth, which is itself a complex situation; rather, we speak even about people who are physically fully male, but who have <a href=\"https:\/\/www1.nyc.gov\/html\/doh\/downloads\/pdf\/vr\/gendermarker.pdf\">elected to be registered as female<\/a> and are certified to have undergone therapy for such, by dint of their self-perception and belief that they are really female. The US government, with the support of homosexual\/transgender lobbying organizations, argues in its <a href=\"http:\/\/www.democracynow.org\/2016\/5\/10\/headlines\/obama_admin_sues_north_carolina_over_anti_transgender_law\">lawsuit<\/a> against North Carolina that to require these biological men to use men\u2019s restrooms rather than women\u2019s restrooms is a fundamental form of illegal discrimination and that abolishing the North Carolina law \u201cis part of the ongoing civil rights struggle\u201d. (More use of Old Southern bigotry images, of course.) <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: black;font-size: 14pt\">Never mind the great discomfort as well as the feelings of invasion of privacy and breach of modesty that women will experience when biological men who self-identify as women enter the ladies\u2019 room. And never mind that a male-looking person who enters the ladies\u2019 room with the claim that he self-identifies as a woman may in truth actually be a \u201creal\u201d male, believe it or not, desirous to spend time in the ladies\u2019 room to satisfy his male curiosities and interests. Somehow, these very real concerns become annoying secondary details when the agenda of the transgender\/homosexual lobbyists and their political allies is on the move.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: black;font-size: 14pt\">The Talmudic Sages tell us that the legal system in Sodom was topsy-turvy, such that those who were the object of offense were penalized, and those causing the offense were awarded. To turn public protocol on its head and impose upon people policies which violate their rights to basic privacy and security, for an elusive cause that until recently never raised its head and is not recognized by many in the first place, is utterly mind-boggling and shocking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: black;font-size: 14pt\">Although many in the American public may not care to hear about how the assault on the North Carolina law is an affront to Biblical values, one would expect that common sense and public safety would at least be taken into consideration &#8211; but alas, that was too much to hope for.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: black;font-size: 14pt\">Why does this all matter to those of us who do not live in North Carolina and who do not anticipate encountering biological men in the ladies\u2019 room and vice versa within our own communities? It matters greatly, as it illustrates ever so acutely both the deterioration of the most basic Biblical values throughout Western society, as well as the fact that the fringe left, in pursuit of its agenda, is totally oblivious to arguments of reason and even safety.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.cross-currents.com\/archives\/2016\/05\/11\/the-north-carolina-legal-battle-and-the-its-larger-message-for-the-jewish-people\/\">Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rabbi Avrohom Gordon writes: It\u2019s described all over mainstream media as the North Carolina Anti-LGBT Law &#8211; intentionally creating a picture of old-time Southern bigotry, conjuring up images of signs in North Carolina establishments that bar people from entrance or &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/?p=97684\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29664],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-97684","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-trannies"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97684","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=97684"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97684\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":97685,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97684\/revisions\/97685"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=97684"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=97684"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=97684"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
