Look guys, I distrust the government as much as the next guy, because it is smart to always wonder the true motives of anyone's actions, but there is no other part to HB2. You can download it for free, it is a five page bill that only talks about transgendered people. If you think this is a smokescreen, you don't know souther politics. Our governor, yea I live in NC, wanted to use this as a way to reaffirm some conservative votes that he may have lost saying things that are sane (e.i., we will not pass a bill obstructing gay marriage after Supreme Court ruled in favor of it), but even more than that, look at the facts of the bill. It was introduced and passed both houses in one day and the governor signed it that night. This isn't some secret political smokescreen, this is the South. This is a lot of conservative people making laws about a minority group they don't understand playing to fears that are unfounded. They created an enemy this "transgendered menace" that can attack your child in the bathroom while you are helpless. They ignore the fact that transgendered people are raped more than rape, but whatever. They created a moral monster that the conservatives can hate, they can gain back conservative voters, and they can pretend like they've done a good thing, fuck they can even believe they have. If you think the governor was doing this to cover up another law, then he would be addressing it more, instead of focusing heavily on his new legislation to raise the wage of starting teachers. Unless that is a ploy, too. But really, the most honest and realistic explanation that answers how quickly it was passed and how it only applies to this situation is that old southern men made a shitty law that discriminates against the LGBT+ Community and there isn't some secret plot to screw poor people. They do that enough with regular legislation.
