Security Guard Charged With “Hate Crime” for Removing Man From Women’s Restroom, by Mitchell Shaw.

On Thursday, police in Washington, D.C., charged a female security guard with assault for removing a man from the women’s restroom at a Giant supermarket. The man — who “identifies” as a “transgender woman” — called the police after he was removed from the restroom and the store by the security guard, 45-year-old Francine Jones. Jones was charged with simple assault. The police report notes that the “assault” is a suspected “hate crime.” …

[The man], 32, told both police and reporters that Jones verbally assaulted him. “She opened the door and came in and started calling me derogatory names,” [the man] said, adding that Jones told him, “I know you are a man…. You guys cannot keep coming in here and using our women’s restroom. They did not pass the law yet.”
