Priorities

I am in favor of people being able to use whatever bathroom suits them. Totally in favor. 

This morning as I read and listened to the White House memo to schools telling them this is something all schools should do, and the debates about the White House sending such a directive I had a thought:

Hey, wouldn’t it be great if we put as much passion and effort into improving education in schools and making sure all those kids were well fed and lived in secure safe places? 

In fact, if we had better schools and safer communities we probably wouldn’t be arguing over whether a tiny portion of our population should use this bathroom or that one. We’d be respectful and do the right thing.  Because we’d want them to feel safe and respected where they are, all the time, too.
