w.wright In attacking anti-discrimination laws and ordinances which would give lgbts equal protection in instances of housing and employment, religious right groups are quick to use the claim that such laws would endanger the safety of women and children.
The Traditional Values Coalition (TVC) already published various inaccurate pieces including one claiming that the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) would lead to students being "forced" to be taught by drag queen teachers.
It's just a simple a matter of time before TVC and other religious right group pull out the "ace card" in opposing all non-discrimination ordinances in general, i.e. the claim that such laws would lead "male predators" dressing as women and invading women's bathrooms and locker rooms in order to assault prospective victims.
After which all the Lawyers who specialise in libel and discrimination cases order their next Mercedes Benz!
I couldn't help but notice that Wendy Wright looks kind of like Amanda Simpson. Make of that what you will.
