A Guy Walks Into a Phone Booth.... [UPDATED]

And then someone else documents it on You Tube:
Now, can someone be supportive of trans rights and be on one party's side in a case to a degree that might seem at first glance to be anti-trans? Yes. Lawyers have to make tough choices sometimes and, like it or not, the mere fact that a transsexual is involved in a case does not mean that the transsexual is the party who deserves to prevail.
I was involved in one legal dispute where one trans person was going after another one (petty, small claims caliber of dispute, but a dispute nevertheless.)
