Christians Shout at Target Customers to Protest Trans-Inclusive Bathrooms

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2016/05/02/christians-shout-at-target-customers-to-protest-trans-inclusive-bathrooms/

Well, we knew this was coming. Boycotting Target over the company’s decision to have trans-inclusive restrooms wasn’t enough to ease all of those in moral disagreement. So while some Christians are purposely heading to the bathroom of the opposite gender to prove some warped point, others are preaching the Word in person, slinging some harsh judgment upon everyone in the store.

In a video captured by onlooker Holly Taylor, two men walked into the Hendersonville (Tennessee) Target store, one evangelizing at the top of his lungs, the other walking alongside him with an obnoxious “Jesus will judge you” t-shirt and camera in hand.

They were eventually escorted out of the store by employees, but the fiasco continued in the parking lot (where no souls appeared to need saving).

Can you imagine if atheists did something similar inside their church, warning people they were being brainwashed? It’d be the plot of God’s Not Dead 3.


Great. Just like anti's, except instead of yelling "Don't kill your baby!" at the top of their lungs, they're yelling "Don't take a pee!" First as tragedy, then as farce...

That's right, they're silent because they actually endorse it. Yes, their God would be ashamed of them.

Already 9 Transpeople are dead by now since the beginning of this year.

I guess we should have listened to the RWNJs when they told us marriage equality would lead to the slippery slope of pedophiles seeking validation for their perversion. I don't think their church buddies were who they had in mind. I would really like to see one of these guys explain to the judge how he went into the bathroom to talk to children and take pictures, but he is not a pervert! He is a concerned Christian.
Maybe he will refuse a lawyer, because gosh darn it, he is a sovereign citizen. Maybe he will be found guilty and have to register as a sex offender. Or maybe the ladies in the bathroom will teach him a lesson before they call 911.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You've seen the video. Guy smells her neck. Then puts his hands on her. She responds
by slapping him silly and then kneeing/kicking him in the balls. He ends up on the floor
in pain.

A couple of those episodes and there won't be any more "volunteers" from men wanting to
enter the women's room.
