You thought this was America, didn’t you? You thought wrong.

A Portland bartender has been convicted of "second-degree bias crime and harassment" after she "misgendered" a man who “identifies” as a woman.

According to The Post Millennial:

A Portland bartender has been found guilty on hate crime and harassment charges for misgendering and physically confronting a trans-identified biological male who had been using the women's restroom.

On Wednesday, Multnomah County Circuit Court found Cassie McIntyre, 40, guilty of second-degree bias crime and harassment following a two-day jury trial. Judge Christopher Marshall sentenced McIntyre to two years of probation and 50 hours of community service, per the Oregonian.

And today I think we all learned that in Portland you can commit the crime of “bias.” Bias crime is apparently a thing and no one should be here for that. It is illegal to have a bias in one of America’s major cities. Let that sink in.

McIntyre was accused of "misgendering" and physically shoving 35-year-old Riis Larsen, a trans-identified biological male and self-described Marxist who uses pronouns that include she/her/hers/theirs, during a confrontation that turned physical at the Sellwood bar on Dec. 27, 2022.

McIntyre, a bartender at Sellwood bar, had just completed her shift and sat down to have a drink when she reportedly heard patrons complaining that Larsen had cut in line to use the women's single-stall restroom and pushed other patrons in the process, court documents show.

Larsen testified in court on Tuesday that she was physically confronted by McIntyre upon exiting the women's restroom. Larsen claimed that McIntyre had cornered her and told her that she "was a man" and needed to use the men's restroom.

I am still having trouble seeing what crime has been committed.

Larsen said that she attempted to explain her "gender identity" to McIntyre but was shoved by the bartender and told to "get out."

The whole gender-bender nonsense blew up overnight. So obviously telling someone you are a “she” for the first time when he is clearly a "he", would likely get someone upset. Now, I do not condone pushing, shoving, or violence in any way shape, or form, but other than that, this case is asinine. And if this occurred 20 years ago, maybe even 10 years ago, she would not have been charged (probably).

McIntyre testified that she did not understand that she had been "misgendering" Larsen and had to look up the definition of transgender in the dictionary. The defendant did not deny pushing Larsen and asserted that she had just been "making space."

"I wasn't trying to misgender her — I had to look up what transgender was in the dictionary," said McIntyre, according to the Oregonian. "We were just arguing over spilt milk."

This is one example of why the whole “misgendering” thing is extremely stupid. You can’t just wake up one day and change definitions after humanity has relied on the same meaning since the beginning of time, and then charge people for “bias” because they didn’t get the memo. Because for the side that claims to be the “tolerant” one, that seems like anything but that.

At one point in time, the average person would get furious seeing a man walk into the women's restroom. But now that person is not only considered "brave" and glorified, but you can be charged with "bais" for disagreeing with the status quo. To say that is insane would be an understatement.
