Tom Cotton?  Cottonmouth is more like it, because he’s a snake.  He wants to force states to place Transgender women into male prisons, and threatening states that segregate Trans people from the general population.

He knows full well this will inevitable lead to violence, rape, and murder, because that’s what he wants to see happen.  I’ll bet Cotton enjoyed hearing that Cheetolini’s ICE goons raped women and raped children in the concentration camps.

If TERFs and other anti-Trans trash and bigots were actually “worried about cis women’s safety in prisons”, they would be creating “Trans only” prison wings.  US prisons have populations of 1,000 to 3,000, and there are approximately 5,000 Transgender and Non-Binary people currently incarcerated.  The US could have three to five solely Trans/Non-Binary prisons in regional locations for their housing, eliminating any alleged “threat”.

But scum like Cotton, Greer, Rowling, and other trash want to create a threat, not eliminate one.  They want to create situations that will lead to the assault, rape, and murder of people who are not cis, especially so Transgender women.

GOP Sen. Tom Cotton wants to force trans women to be locked up with violent men in prisons

On Thursday, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) introduced a bill that would require the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) to house trans federal inmates based on their sex assigned at birth rather than their gender, a policy that LGBTQ equality advocates say will put transgender people at risk of violence.

The bill would also incentivize state prisons to do the same by limiting funding to those who house inmates by their gender identity.

Cotton proposed the bill under the guise of protecting women from violence, even naming it the “Preventing Violence Against Female Inmates Act.”

The bill is a response to a report that leaked from the Department of Justice (DOJ) detailing a potential executive order from President Joe Biden that would mandate prisons house inmates according to gender.

“President Biden’s plan to house male and female prisoners together will put women in danger,” Cotton claimed in a press release that denigrated trans identities. The release cited unspecified anecdotes about violence against cis women but not any statistics on the alleged problem.

Of course Cotton has no evidence to cite, because if he did proper research, he would know that Transgender and Non-Binary people are targeted for abuse by violent predators, that prisons allow it to happen, and are probably encouraging it.  The “anecdotes” claiming “Trans predators” are unverifiable fictions and hate propaganda, reported only in rightwing “news”.
