The thing is that "we the people" are busy fighting each other over every political issue under the sun. Good luck getting the American people to agree on literally anything.

This is by design of course. "You don't want the gays using your bathrooms!" while they pillage the country.

I think it's hilarious that you felt the need to exaggerate a genuine political conflict, transgender people using the wash facilities of their claimed sex, into the obvious strawman of not wanting homosexuals in bathrooms.

If HN had a vote budget, I'd use it all on your comment.

Right now my country is having federal elections and everything from bathrooms to what people do in their beds in private is being discussed, except actual plans for education, health and the economy. It's a celebrity shitshow and it seems to have infected most countries.
