Mixed Thoughts

One side of me thinks that this was kind of fitting, toilet papering the legislator’s office who proposed the “bathroom” legislation. But my other side thinks it was dumb to antagonize the opposition.
Transgender advocates TP state Senator Pam Roach's office

OLYMPIA, Wash. -- LGBTQ activists came armed only with toilet paper.

They were here to make a mess. Activists from LGBTQ Allyship are mad about several new bills aimed at restricting transgender bathroom access.

They started with Republican State Senator Pam Roach’s office. They TP’d her office, but she wasn’t there.

State Senator Roach of Auburn chairs the Rules Committee. She also supports the new bills that would undo the state’s Human Rights Commission ruling.

Late last year, it clarified that transgender people have access to a bathroom or locker room of their chosen gender.

LGTBQ Allyship says those behind the bills are fear-mongering. 
True, it is fear mongering but is it the best way to go about lobbying?

Would it had been better to have people sign the tissues on the roll and give her the roll than to hang it on the walls?
