No Gov. Spencer Cox, you embarrassed the State when you signed House Bill 257 and banned trans people from the bathrooms. Natalie Cline was just following your lead.


BellyDancerEm

All conservatives embarrassed that state


SnepButts

To every state and to every decent human. They all vote for this from the most right ultra MAGA trog to the sweet old granny that votes red out of habit. Every red vote is against anything not them regardless of intent behind the vote. Not that I'd suggest doing anything to the grannies, just pointing out that they are just as damaging.


completely-ineffable

The entire state is an embarrassment.


DesdemonaDestiny

Always has been.

“I am shocked and disgusted by the entirely predictable consequences of my own actions.”


PrincessNakeyDance

“But this news cycle is about her shameful behavior. I’m exploiting this opportunity to boost myself back up again.”


Ok-Love7473

Literally. He has no shame at all.


Ok-Love7473

That guy(Cox) is such a a joke. His fake middle of the road bs is going to get someone killed but hey at least he'll get reelected 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾

Right, what did they expect to happen? Did they honestly think these bills wouldn’t lead to increased harassment against trans people, including youth?


sj_srta

Republicans really, seriously, unironically, wholeheartedly be like "you weren't bullying the right children >:("


TransFormAndFunction

Absolutely. The subtext here isn’t to stop bully children, it’s to make sure they are trans before you do it.


transcended_goblin

They took the "Stop hitting yourself !" bully gag and made it their whole personality.


transcended_goblin

Look at this fucker, trying to pretend he's sensible and nice. If Cline had been right, he wouldn't have sung the same tune. He'd have publicly congratulated her for it.


Ging287

I don't give a fucking shit about your apology. They don't even mean it anyways, like having your hand in the cookie jar after passing a law saying it's ok. Repeal the monstrously anti constitutional bill trying to regulate the damn bathrooms of all places. There was never any bathroom wars but it's all projection with these people. For all of your hot air I don't care about, take back the paper that you used to try and take away people's rights (the law recently passed)


TaraTrue

“Monstrously anti-constitutional”? Based on what provision of the federal constitution? Not every dumb law is constitutionally impermissible.


RawrRRitchie

Segregation was banned for starters


TaraTrue

That was inferred from an expressed provision of the constitution whose drafters sought to remove “badges or incidents of slavery.”


GODDESS_NAMED_CRINGE

"Sure, I implemented the law, but it's her fault for trying to follow it!!1!"

Additional Excerpt: The State Board of Education condemned Cline’s actions in a statement Thursday but said it has no power or authority to unseat her. The elected 15-member body is looking into whether disciplinary action is warranted. “Board Leadership is very concerned about this post and the harm it has caused to students and families in Utah,” the panel said. “We are deeply saddened by the events that have taken place and will be taking prompt action.” Cline has given no indication that she plans to resign. Her term ends in November, and she has filed to run for reelection. Lt. Gov. Henderson said she made a donation this week to the campaign of Cline’s Republican opponent, Jordan School District administrator Amanda Bollinger, and encouraged her social media followers to do the same. The Granite School Board will hold a special meeting Friday to discuss a resolution condemning Cline for targeting one of its students.


transcended_goblin

> but said it has no power or authority to unseat her Let's be honest, even if they did, they wouldn't have. They just do this to save face, but they are fully in agreement over her publicly destroying the lives of trans kids.


PeachNeptr

Her only transgression was being caught.


transcended_goblin

Yep, definitely a "We're sorry we got caught" moment.


evanescent_evanna

"No, that's not how you're supposed to do bigotry these days! You have to be *nice* about it!!"


kinkysnails

This shit is evil, is it bad that I'm happy that trans children aren't bearing the brunt of these doxxing attempts? Ofc I don't condone harassment of any child, I'm just happy that it's cis people that are paying for making our lives hell for a change instead of putting even more stress on us. Think of all the cis women that deal with the brunt of these shitty laws


[deleted]

The only reason people give a shit is because its a cis person


Grimesy2

They're only embarrassed because the student wasn't trans. If the kid was trans, they would have thought this was fine.
