Peacefully disobeying the law is not a good idea under fascism. This was a brave, albeit really stupid, thing to do. I hope this woman makes it out okay.
No kidding. Prison is not a good place to be trans at the best of times. She seems to be aware of this but… I dunno. As a protest goes this seems ill advised. She might be playing Joan of Arc here but I just hope she doesn’t regret this later.
With RepubliKKKans, the cruelty is the point. The governor of Texas signed a bill a couple years ago that made it so that, iirc, construction workers were no longer required by law to be given water breaks. There are 60 days in Dallas, TX per year with an average high temperature at least 97 degrees Fahrenheit. I remember one stretch about 20 years ago in Austin where the temperature was 100+ for 30 days in a row.
She didn’t do anything wrong; but regardless, if you’re going to scale the wall to go into the lion’s den at the zoo definitely don’t announce it to them via megaphone first.

as stupid as a trans woman entering the men’s bathroom and being ridiculed/assaulted? there’s really no winning for trans people
