Cops: Man Choked 8-Year-Old Girl in Restaurant Bathroom

Now, it has also been said that regardless of the new considerations, if they do something illegal, yes, they can be prosecuted. Great, they committed a crime and hopefully they will pay for it. However, the fact of the matter is, IF - yes, IF - something does happen to a child, it can never be undone. Ever. I do not care if people are offended by a perceived discrimination - there is never, ever a good reason to increase the risk to a child. Even a small increase in risk is unacceptable.

So, maybe children-only restrooms, then, or are we pretending a woman would never hurt a child or that boys aren't victimized by men?

This heightened fear that bathrooms are going to be hunting grounds if we make accommodations for transgender people just seems so far out of left field. Forget the law, for a moment, and consider that if a man really wants to prey on children in public restrooms, that's already possible. Even to the extent that a marginally cunning pervert can put in the effort to conceal himself as a woman under present circumstances.
