South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley spoke out against a bill that would limit LGBT legal protections by requiring transgender people to use bathrooms matching the gender on their birth certificate, according to The Post and Courier.
"While other states are having this battle, this is not a battle that we have seen is needed in South Carolina," said Haley.
The bill, filed by Republican Sen. Lee Bright on Wednesday, said the law is about "public safety, unrelated to differing bills and laws in other states concerning religious liberty," reports The Post and Courier.
"South Carolina is doing really well when it comes to respect and when it comes to kindness and when it comes to acceptance," Haley said, according to The State. "For people to imply it's not, I beg to differ."
Democratic Sen. Marlon Kimpson led the charge against the bill, saying, "I can't imagine a more ridiculous bill." Adding that the bill calls for a "genitalia patrol" to check birth certificates at bathroom doors.

No but this illegal Indian wannabe Gubner is quick to dismantle Southern heritage and the Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia.
She is a D.B. and a POS!!
Most likely to be the VP for Republicans in the fall election. Just wait and see.
The "Genital Patrol Officers" idea is a great one to employee recently released convicted sex offenders. This is a job for them, since they can't get many other jobs.
Great idea 4:39, sex offenders should start a mass immigration to NC and apply for the position.
