Transgender woman confronts Star Wars store owner over his 'offensive' sign: 'If you are born with a d**k, you are not a chick'
A wild confrontation erupted between a transgender councilwoman and a Star Wars store owner over a sign that she claims is transphobic.
In a video, councilwoman Tiesa Meskis got into a five-minute shouting match with Don Sucher, the owner of Sucher & Sons Star Wars Shop in Aberdeen, Washington, on Thursday, over his sign that reads: 'If you are born with a d**k, you are not a chick.
Meskis can be heard yelling: 'Trans women are women. That sign is bulls***t.'
'You're nuts,' Sucher yelled back. 'I'm telling you that as a man, that's bulls**t.'

Similarly, no woman should be required to publish a baby.

Terrible idea. Putting him on Twitter was the best option. Let the free market decide his fate.

One can be Sucher & Sons, buyers and sellers of science fiction collectibles who have a very good selection of Star Wars stuff for sale, but you can't be a Star Wars shop.
Corporate Disney isn't exactly "woke" but they have decided racism and LGBQT hate are bad for business.
If I was dealing in Disneyana I wouldn't want to upset them.

(353 posts)He's certainly got that attitude right. This guy probably watches the movies and thinks the Sith, Empire, and First Order were the good guys, who just wanted to Make the Galaxy Great Again.

(10,421 posts)That think that Vader and the Stormtroopers are cool. Or b*tched about the last three movies because they were too "woke" because they had a black guy and an Asian woman as lead characters.
