Press Release:

    The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Legal Counsel Kellie Fiedorek regarding the NBA's decision to move the league's men's All-Star Game from Charlotte to another city because of North Carolina's law that ensures that young girls aren't forced to shower and change clothes in the presence of men in public facilities:

  • "The NBA has abandoned common sense and put politics ahead of principle. The North Carolina privacy law, which protects girls and women from being forced to share locker rooms and showers with men, is completely reasonable. Pulling the 2017 All-Star Game from Charlotte is unreasonable and hypocritical. If the NBA actually believed that there is no difference between men and women, it would merge its two leagues. Twenty years ago, the NBA recognized the innate and obvious biological differences between men and women when it created the WNBA. Today, the NBA hopes no one notices that it properly maintains separate leagues for men and women while it opposes the commonsense law that simply protected the dignity interests and privacy rights of North Carolinians. Twenty-three other states explicitly support the freedom of states to set their own policies and laws regarding locker rooms and restrooms. Even New Orleans, the alternative city often mentioned as a host for next year's All-Star Game, allows for 'separate bathroom, restroom, shower or similar facilities for males and females' in its local ordinance. The NBA should stick to what it does best-showcasing the world's greatest professional athletes and serving its diverse fan base-rather than showcasing its amateur political posturing and serving the narrow-minded power elite."

Should Americans be thankful for North Carolinians setting precedent in taking a stand for their state's right to manage the safety of their public facilities, where separation of the sexes remains, or should they follow Bruce Springsteen's lead and boycott the state as bigots since they will not allow grown Transgender men to use the same bathrooms /locker rooms as pre-pubescent girls?
  North Carolina is right to control the separation of the sexes as a matter of decorum and safety.
  North Carolina is a bigoted state to not require that children of opposite sexes share the same public facilities with adults of the opposite sex, although misidentified - the Transgender.
  I generally prefer the natural environs of the vacant, although rather public, large tree.
