GRAND JUNCTION — Allowing men in women's bathrooms is not what Rep. Bernie Buescher, D-Grand Junction, envisioned when he voted for Senate Bill 200 in May.
A sign in front of Mike's Auto has been telling drivers on North Avenue differently for more than a week.
The sign, reading "Bernie Buescher, Shame on you, Men in girl's bathrooms," refers to a new state law designed to prohibit discrimination based on a person's religion or sexual orientation in several places, including "facilities." "Facilities" include hotel and public accommodations, not bathrooms, Buescher said.

Would be the first to lead a charge in changing it.
Illegal for someone to use a bathroom that they decide does not fit the person. Are we to expect to face brownshirts whenever we have to use a public restroom?
