"SALISBURY, N.C. — A North Carolina school system has adopted a policy allowing high school students to carry pepper spray this fall, a policy one board member said may be useful for students who encounter transgender classmates in the bathroom.

The Salisbury Post reports (http://bit.ly/1TzmUGY) the policy was adopted by the Rowan-Salisbury Board of Education during a work session on Monday."

Had to trace back to the source to ensure this wasn't a joke story. It seems real. Unbelievable.

If anyone should have that pepper spray it should be the transgender individuals. These silly rule makers are nothing more than childish and senseless.
Whatever happened to the pursuit to life and happiness. This is basically saying cisgender folks are allowed to lynch the transgender community, and for what, because they cannot open their own eyes and see the truth that we are not the discriminators but the ones being abused by their unwholesome action guided by the jackals of treacherous reasoning.

If only they realized they are in the wrong and were able to break free of the chains grasping at their minds and deceiving them.

Maybe it would a better idea for the schools to emphasize to students that they all conduct themselves with respect and sensitivity to others?  Nawww!  Not in North Carolina!  Let's go for the weapons . . .

Of course, the North Carolina school system is heavily subsidized by YOUR tax dollars through the U.S. Department of Education . . .

Kids in school will get suspended/disciplined if they get caught sharing an aspirin with a friend.

Kids in school hosing down someone with pepper spray is A-OK though..... if the person is trans.

Insanity.

It actually has nothing to with transgender people, one guy made a dumb comment about HB2. That's the extent of it.
