The ACLU has organized an online petition to fight against the Floridian new bathroom legislation.
If you'd like more information on what is happening in Florida, the
advocate.com has several news stories dedicated to it.
If you'd like to help the ACLU fight against government sanctioned oppression, go to their website and you should be able to find their petition with a bit of navigation from their front page.
The petition needs another 3,000 or so signatures to hit the 50,000 mark. I'd provide a link, but I'm pretty sure that violates the forum's TOS. I signed it and donated money but you don't have to donate money to sign.
Were I in Florida, I'd want to organize and participate in a bathroom sit-in at the courthouse... Only I'm not sure if it'd be more effective to do the sit-in at the Men's restroom or Women's...maybe both...
I try to be apolitical and cheery most of the time, but this entire story is too outrageous for me to not do what I can to fight it. Ugh, I'm so angry right now, I need to go watch kitten videos or a romcom or something. Maybe Chappie, it just came out, plus Hugh Jackman is dreamy...I hope it's good...
hugs,
