The bounty itself reads that any person besides local and state government officials may sue a trans person using the restroom that aligns with their gender, with payments including “injunctive relief sufficient to prevent the defendant from violating the provisions of this ordinance; nominal and compensatory damages if the plaintiff has suffered injury or harm from the defendant’s conduct; statutory damages in an amount of not less than $10,000 for each violation of this ordinance; and court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees.”

    What about when you’re a dad, taking your young son into a public restroom, and have to place yourself between the urinals because of the creepy dude who’s come in and used the very next urinal and is trying to get a look? All men, all in the men’s room.

    How about the men and women who go into restrooms at retail stores and smear their shit all over everything? (This happens way more often than you might think.)

    And I got news for you weirdos: if you think that a gender sign on the door is going to stop anyone whose aim it is to go into a public restroom for sexual jollies, you’re fucking wrong.

    None of that has anything to do with transgender people.

    I desperately want to see a hoarde of transpeople go to Odessa and use public bathrooms aligning with their assigned birth gender, just to see how long it will take before Texans realize that this is fucking stupid.

    Dang, I can’t find a number.

    Anybody that doesn’t look like a generic character from a PS1 game, I’m calling them up.

    If 114,428 Odessans get crotch-checked and only 1 is trans, well so be it.
