Lauren Boebert forced to apologize after trying to kick out ‘a guy’ from women’s bathroom at Capitol
The stupid part is that the world's most powerful government, with the biggest military, billionaires and the world at their disposal ..... and they still use public washrooms with a dozen other people.
These guys are so wealthy and powerful that they should all have dedicated toilets just for themselves or to install individual private toilets without having to interact with anyone.
Public toilets ... going to take a shit like a regular pleb
So that’s not exactly true.
There are around 40 offices in the Capitol Building, each of which has a private restroom. The rest of the members have offices in nearby buildings.
There are also private, members only restrooms in non-public areas of the building. These are single occupancy rooms.
Multi-occupancy restrooms are for staff and the public.
This whole thing is absurd theater. McBride has been offered access to several private restrooms, so there’s no reason for her to go into a public, multi-occupancy restroom.
You're actually victim blaming here???
No, you fucking halfwit meatball. They are pointing out the obvious reasons why from the outset it would not have been her in that bathroom.
They (McBride) wouldn't want to be going in a restroom like that where they could be harassed rather than just using any of the myriad of private restrooms that they have access to.
Therefore, the outcome that it was not McBride was obvious from the outset, but only Blowbert (and apparently you) are dumb enough to believe that it actually would have been her in the restroom.
Listen, I think you're a fuckin' chode, but halfwit meatball is really funny and I'm going to hang on to that.
I think the one that got me the most was some commenter on reddit called another a "fucking bucket". In context it was really funny.
I think it's funny out of context honestly, that's going on the list too.
I’m not sure how you got there. My comment was about “the world’s most powerful government” forcing its officials to use public restrooms.
That part is untrue. They (mostly) have private, single occupancy restrooms and there would be no reason for McBride to go into a public, multi occupancy room for either sex. Especially since she has been offered access to other elected officials private restrooms in private offices
I didn't read the article because frankly I assumed all the pertinent information about this story was right there in the headline. So when I read your comment and you name dropped McBride, I took that to mean she was in fact the victim and you were saying that she shouldn't have been in the women's restroom to begin with. That's how I got there. I wasn't right, but that's how I got there.
Sure, I get it.
The article is somewhat about McBride in that Lauren Boebert made a scene suggesting that “a man” (McBride) was in the public women’s restroom. Then later retracted her statement saying it was a case of mistaken identity.
But the problem with the whole story is that A) McBride has indicated she would comply with House rules and not use a public, women’s restroom and B) McBride has no reason to use those public restrooms because C) most Members use private, single occupancy restrooms and D) members with personal restrooms in their private offices have offered to let McBride use them.
To tie all this together, Boebert created a farcical situation to get attention. It’s classic rage bait. She can win points with bigots because she’s defending the sanctity of women’s restrooms. Plus progressives get mad at her for being bigoted, which makes bigots happy with her.
The only response to this garbage is to not engage
Thanks, well put and apologies.
McBride never went inside and expressed that she will comply with the ban. I agree it's theatrics to cause a commotion though.
