Lyft Apologizes After Driver Warns 'Hetero Males' About Trans Activist

" Monica Jones, a globally recognized activist in the fight for transgender civil rights, was merely looking to enjoy an evening in a Phoenix bar Friday when she received an alarming message on Facebook: A friend discovered someone had posted a "word of caution" online about her, naming her and identifying where she was.   

The person posting this "warning" knew she was at the Cruisin' 7th bar, a watering hole popular with local transgender people, because he had just driven her there.

He was her Lyft driver."

Scum. A POS taxi driver outed me to our local "newspaper" for £10 in 1994. They sent a reporter to my home who asked for a word, she got 2 (the 1st 1 started with F)
