I See A Trip To The Supreme Court

I think this is going to go all the way up to the Supreme Court when it will boil down to Justice Kennedy.
McCrory to join transgender bathroom lawsuit without Cooper’s help

Despite opposition from Attorney General Roy Cooper, Gov. Pat McCrory announced Tuesday that he’ll join a legal battle over whether a transgender Virginia high school student can use the men’s restroom at the teenager’s school.

McCrory called on Cooper to join a friend-of-the-court brief that the South Carolina attorney general plans to file, but Cooper declined. His office did not respond to a request to explain his reasons for the decision, but his gubernatorial campaign issued a statement criticizing McCrory for “politicizing” the issue.

McCrory argues that if Obama and the transgender student prevail, North Carolina schools would be affected by the ruling. He said he’ll join the lawsuit “in his capacity as governor.”
[…]
“This is political correctness run amok, and it’s a shame Roy Cooper is pandering to the political extremes of his base instead of putting student safety and common sense first,” Berger said. “If the attorney general thinks forcing middle school-aged boys and girls to use the same locker room is going to create jobs for anyone other than his trial lawyer friends, he should explain how.”
Yup, the governor got that right it is pandering to the political extremes of his base but he is the one that is pandering to the far right wing conservatives. Pandering to the fear mongers who spread lies and fear.

I see this case going all the way to the Supreme Court with the Virginia’s once again backing segregation. I see no other path, the Republicans have been doing everything they can to dehumanize us, to make their followers hate and fear us. They have backed dozens of bills that have instilled fear and hatred of us.
