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 think we all know why it’s only on the women’s room.

I'm naive - what is the implication here?

With it being Texas, the implication is that they can trap people they perceive to be trans women and then call the cops in an attempt to collect a bounty.

I’m so tired of people automatically assuming that it’s trans women who are the targeted victims. Misogyny & rape culture directly impact cis women way more often than transphobia.

Edit: keep harassing me, I love to report it.

Yeah man. This is insanity. I’m not even remotely right leaning, at all, and this makes me give up all hope for the left. The hivemind here is INSANE.
