Discussion: GOP Candidate Films Herself Harassing Trans Woman In Bathroom

"You never know what crazy people you can find in public restrooms,” she said.

Look in a mirror please.

Republicans keeping it “Classy,” again I see.

I am hoping this loon disappears from the political scene quickly.

ETA: Her Twitter post comments about this are not very complementary to her. Perhaps her filming and posting this represents an error in judgment. :rage:

Jazmina Saavedra, a “Latinos for Trump” spokeswoman who’s looking to unseat Rep. Nanette Diaz Barragán (D-CA), streamed the incident via Facebook Live while at a Denny’s.

Must not have been an all-you-can-eat day at Denny’s. Otherwise, this video would have been a hell of a lot shorter.

This is reprehensible. Mind your own fucking business and stop harassing people, shitstain. When trans people get confronted like this, it feels really threatening and perilous. But the bulls in china shops demand the “right” to bully people out of bathrooms and public spaces. May she reap what she’s sown. One way or another.

“A Republican House candidate running in California’s 44th District”

reminder

Saavedra is the second modern day Republican who’s running in this district.

There are times when I can’t remember a co-worker’s name, but remembering stories about this era is almost magical. It usually starts with me typing with “keyword, keyword, Trump, “bs” (subject in question), keyword” and then I just hit enter.

Works all the time.

Live streaming a woman using the toilet has to violate at least one law, one would think.

Ru Paul, in full bouffant-haired, gold lame-dressed, stiletto-heeled drag regalia, should follow this human fungus Saavedra into the bathroom and read her beads for days. Livestreaming it, of course.
Also: bitch gotta go! (H/T: Pickles Oblong)

Saveedra isn’t the 1st “concerned citizen” to do that.

I have two words for this woman: “Despicable Cretin”

And she is running for office as a Repug – it figures.

At the end of Saavedra’s video, the candidate showed viewers her stun gun and pepper spray.

“You never know what crazy people you can find in public restrooms,” she said.

According to ABC7, Saavedra doesn’t regret anything she said.

This is such a terrific self-own. It’s hard to believe it isn’t parody.

Someone needs to repurpose this video as an example of how people like her are harassing people doing absolutely no harm to anyone.

She keeps saying, “you invited my privacy””. Eloquent.

Hopefully this video, or carefully selected excerpts will be prominently used by her opposition in the campaign.

Not about to watch the video, but what a horrible person this lady is, the GOP sure can pick 'em.

I can’t even watch the link it upsets me so much. How dare these so-called human beings treat people like that. It boggles the mind. Wish I had been there, or better yet my daughter, who would have cut that Trumpian bitch to pieces with her words.

How can a woman be in the GOP?

How can a hispanic woman be in the GOP?

How can an insane hispanic woman be in the GOP?

Answer: See Saavedra, Jazmina

I believe that you buried your lede. “Insane” trumps all other categories, so being a woman and being Hispanic become irrelevant when the insane modifier is present.

Seriously, nothing says “I’m just an honest American concerned about the behavior of others in the bathroom” more than pulling out your phone and filming other people who are just using the fucking bathroom and minding their own business.

She and disgraced former senator “I’m not now nor have I ever been gay” toe-tappin’ Larry Craig should get together and pitch a TV show, maybe call it “Don’t Get Pissed, I’m Doin’ This Shit for Your Own Good”. (okay, I have not talent for titles…)

I don’t know about y’all but I don’t really pay attention to other people in public restrooms.
