В Северной Каролине был принят закон о том, что если человек рожден мужчиной, следовательно он должен ходить в мужской туалет…

Вот за это NBA грозится перенести из Шарлотты запланированные в этом году в этом городе Игры всех Звезд, All-Star Game.

The NBA’s concerns over House Bill 2, known variously as “HB2” or the “bathroom law,” have yet to be addressed satisfactorily by North Carolina legislators. It became an issue for the league last spring when LGBT protests framed it as discriminatory, among its provisions, in preventing people from using public restrooms and locker rooms based on self-defined gender identity.

Adopted statewide to counter a specific bathroom-neutral policy enacted in Charlotte, HB2 requires people to use public facilities corresponding to their biological gender. Its supporters have cited privacy and safety reasons for favoring the law.

Silver repeatedly has cited “diversity and inclusion” as core principles of the NBA, values make staging the 2017 All-Star Game and all the festivities surrounding it “problematic.” Attempts to work behind the scenes with politicians and business leaders in North Carolina have not been fruitful and a recent short session of the state legislature only produced only minor revisions in language, insufficient to satisfy the NBA.

Rick Buchanan, NBA general counsel, updated the board on the situation and the Hornets spoke as well, Silver said. No vote was asked for or taken. But in keeping with Silver’s statement last month that he didn’t see the league “getting past the summer without knowing definitely where we stand,” each passing day without compromise add urgency to the matter.

Отсюда.
