(Another (non hysterical) look at the man-in-a-dress in the Maryland locker room incident. -Karen)


"Turner said CRG members have collected about 5,000 signatures of the 25,000 required to place a referendum on the November ballot seeking to overturn the transgender bill. Half of those signatures are due Feb. 4, Turner said.

Because of that impending deadline, Trachtenberg accused the group of staging the incident to drum up support for its cause. She said she knows of no reports of similar incidents. "

Just as i thought. The 'incident' was set-up to get the necessary extra 5,000 signatures by Feb. 4th.

And of course 'the group' didn't 'know' anything at aaaaalllll about it. Some guy ran back to the men's showers and rid himself of the pancake before coming back out.

This is so lame that even a cart won't make it move!!
