A Republican just angrily barged in on transgender woman in restroom with a camera (WATCH)

The party of personal liberty is back to fear mongering about the “dangers” of transgender people using the toilets again.

Republican House candidate Jazmina Saavedra accused a transgender woman who was quite literally in the midst of relieving herself in a Denny’s restroom of “invading her privacy” by using the restroom that corresponds with her gender identity. To be clear, Saavedra felt that her privacy was invaded as she filmed someone else in a bathroom stall (video below).

“I’m trying to use the ladies’ room and there is a man here claiming that he is a lady,” Saavedra said in her Facebook Live video.

“You’re invading my privacy,” the transgender woman responded.

“You’re invading my privacy because I’m a woman and I deserve to use the woman, the ladies’ room,” Saavedra retorted.

just scrap having separate gender restrooms, revamp stalls to be even more private (if needed) and switch to unisex ones like they have in Europe.

She was just in a bathroom stall relieving herself, NOTHING else. This type of stunt is a horrible invasion of privacy and should be illegal if it's not already. People like this bigoted RW nut should be shunned by the public and businesses.

Are we sure she is an American? That idiot should meet up with that lawyer from Manhattan who will question her citizenship
