How does it hurt cisgender children if they happen to use the same restroom as a transgender child? It doesn't. That's just blatant fear mongering and ignorance. Most of the time the other children aren't even aware that a transgender child is, in fact, transgender. They just look like regular people. <br /><br />Jazz Jennings and her family: <br /><a href="http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/wennpic/jazz-jennings-24th-annual-glaad-media-awards-07.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/wennpic...</a><br /><br />Coy Mathis and her mother. <br /><a href="http://www.ugandapicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/transgender-girl-6.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.ugandapicks.com/wp-content/up...</a><br /><br />Nicki: <br /><a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20712691,00.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,...</a><br /><br />Look at the pictures of these children. These are the kids you're saying that you want to shoot with a shotgun. Honestly, you aught to be ashamed of yourself. <br /><br />By the way, I should point out that you're completely forgetting about female-to-male trans* kids (girls who become boys). After about a year or so on testosterone, they just look like regular boys. If you insist that transgender individuals be forced by the government to use the restroom corresponding to the gender they were assigned at birth rather than to the restroom which corresponds to their gender identity, then you're effectively saying all FTM transsexuals, even though they look and sound like boys, must use the girl's restroom,simply due to the fact that they were born female. Is that what you want? Cuz' that would be the result of opposing the bill. <br /><br />Also, transsexualism is a medical condition that a person is born with, not some mental illness. If you really want to have a truly informed opinion on the subject, and not an opinion based on the lies of faulty pseudoscience and hate groups, then here's a scientific paper that talks about some of the physical conditions which cause transsexualism and other intersex conditions: <br /><br /><a href="http://www.dialoguejournal.com/wp-content/uploads/sbi/articles/Dialogue_V12N03_111.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.dialoguejournal.com/wp-conten...</a>

Alright, let's talk about the other six laws, then, shall we? <br /><br />They talk about global warming at first, but make no mention of any specific laws regarding it. <br /><br />They also complain about Home Owners Associations, and how the HOA for one of the guy's neighborhoods won't let him install a flagpole in his own yard, and also requires that all garbage cans be taken off the curb within 12 hours after the garbagemen have collected the garbage. <br /><br />They also talk about Plato's Republic, and how Plato's philosophy is essentially a handbook for tyranny. Later on they also criticize Friedrich Hegel who essentially said that the state is God. <br /><br />Anyway, here's the list of the seven laws in the order they were presented: <br /><br />1. Connecticut law requiring registration of all assault rifles <br />2. Nationwide ban on incandescent light bulbs <br />3. California AB 1266 - protects the rights of transgender children in school <br />4. New York Ban on Horse Drawn Carriages <br />5. D.C. law requiring re-registration of guns that were already registered <br />6. Illinois ban on talking on a cell phone while driving <br />7. California AB 60 - allows undocumented immigrants to obtain a driver's license <br /><br />Personally, I've generally been indifferent on the issue of gun registration, though I support people's right to own guns. But I suppose I can understand people's fear that registration leads to confiscation. <br /><br />The ban on incandescent light bulbs is dumb. The free market should decide which products succeed and which ones don't. Trying to legislate success doesn't work. <br /><br />We've already thoroughly gone over the California bill protecting transgender students. <br /><br />The New York ban on horse drawn carriages is incredibly stupid. Horses have been beasts of burden in Western civilization for thousands of years. Trying to change that is irrational. I think this bill was being pushed by PETA, wasn't it? <br /><br />Citizens of Washington, D.C have been legally required to register their guns for a while now, but this new law requires them to register their guns again for some reason. I don't see what the purpose of that is. This law makes no sense. <br /><br />The Illinois law banning talking on a cell phone while driving seems fine to me. A driver should be free from all distractions. One of the guys says that he believes that some people can drink and drive safely, which is absurd. <br /><br />California's new law allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain a driver's license seems sort of rational, but I can also see the argument against it. I mean, personally, I think we should have free and open immigration, but I recognize that isn't possible with a massive government welfare system in place. <br /><br />So out of this list we've got four bad laws, two good ones, and one law which I'm not sure about one way or the other.
