Summary
Marcy Rheintgen, a 20-year-old transgender college student, was arrested at the Florida State Capitol after intentionally entering a women’s restroom in protest of the state’s transgender bathroom law.
Civil rights lawyers say it is the first known arrest under such laws in any U.S. state.
Rheintgen faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge and could face up to 60 days in jail.
Florida is one of only two states to criminalize such acts.
not every location is capable of supporting single user bathrooms. im pretty pro-unisex bathroom anyway
Um, you just add a door to the bathroom if it doesn’t have one. Then you put a lock on it, and a new sign. Very easy to do.
If only there was some kind of “stall” they could put in that would allow multiple people to be in the same restroom and maintain their privacy…
