Absurd legislation

My thanks and kudos to Fabiola Santiago for her Feb. 11 column, Artiles’ potty bill belongs down the toilet, about the absurdity of Rep. Frank Artiles’ preposterous and hateful bill regarding the use of public bathrooms.

I can’t ever get over how small-government Republicans manage to find their way to huge scales of government involvement in people’s bedrooms, personal reproductive issues, the dignity of end-of-life decisions and now — the coup de grâce — our bathrooms.
