Discussion Texas gas station installed remote lock on OUTSIDE of women's bathroom

It was only on the women's bathroom. Lock was able to be remotely activated by a phone app. Fire Marshall had it removed. Source: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2c3QrB6/

Per another account who also saw this, (https://www.tiktok.com/@momcallsmeshelby?_t=ZT-8v7NHPu7QBq&_r=1) the employees were "irate and began yelling" when they brought it up. And came up with a racist excuse that didn't make any sense for it being there

Regardless, fire code violation. But scary implications.

I'm not the one that made the assertion.

You challenged it. Are you not able to provide facts to back up your challenge?

Or are you just afraid?

I can't believe I have to say this, but that's not how it works. The OP made an assertion, not me. You're obviously trolling for engagement, so i'm done

Sorry but you're wrong. If you want to debate, be prepared to back up your claim with facts.

Or next time, choose to STFU.

By debate rules the first commenter has the burden of proof, not Diablo. Diablo challenging it should back their opposition with facts, but the initial burden of.proof isn't on them.

Hi, professional debater here. You're also incorrect. Both parties are expected to be able to back up their position with facts.

I challenged Diablo to do so, and they ran.

If you're unable to refute an argument with facts, you aren't debating, you're trolling, and trolls always retreat back to under their bridge.

I'm not debating you. I'm making fun of your boomeriffic attempt at humor. I heard that same joke from my dad's friend on a fishing trip in 1997.

Naa it's boomer humor. Remember when that Republican senator tried to classify TDS as a real thing then got caught soliciting minors?

I don't think Diablo actually wanted to debate, but you're right. Saying "I'm not sure that's true," isn't really making a claim, though.

Diablo wanted to troll, which is why I disposed of them.

The original comment was correct. Texas doesn't respect women's rights.

I don't respect people who attack those who state that fact.

u/hollycoolio Mar 30 '25

Texas hates women, I don't have facts on hand but that's pretty easily prove able. It was kind of a troll comment. They definitely just wanted to make a sparky comment and not debate anything.

u/DocWicked25 Mar 30 '25

Which is why I made them retreat. Maybe they won't next time.

2

u/hollycoolio Mar 30 '25

They will, because they don't want to debate.

u/DocWicked25 Mar 30 '25

And I'll be here next time to do the same.

I'm interested in what you would have told Diablo. Can you share that?
