Wait what? How does this support the LGBT community, I'm confused

NAIA cross country was scheduled for its 2nd year in Charlotte for nationals, but NAIA president states today the meet would be moved. Looks like some where in the Midwest, maybe back to rim rock?
Seems like very short notice to make that change... apparently some teams had already bought plane tickets for nationals and the preview meet this weekend.
Good job supporting LGBT community, but shouldn't this have been done over the summer so teams knew?
Yep. It's nothing new that libs are hypocritical bigots, but news like this should make it more obvious.

Ah, thanks for clearing it up. But really? Moving the NAIA championship won't do anything, I doubt any non runners care, the only thing that comes out of this is that its an inconvenience to the runners and schools.

Money talks....
By moving it, the host school or venue then has reason to be pissed at the legislature of the state. At a certain point, the state government will get a report that says, "We had X number of organizations pull their events from our state over this gay stuff, including the Electric Boogaloo Festival, the Cross Dressers National Convention, and the NAIA Cross Country championships."

Remember, there is no logic when it comes to social justice. None of this makes sense and it never will.

I wonder how many teams had booked travel so are out that money?
Plane tickets could be a substantial budget hit. If I were an AD of a school I would be calling NAIA to ask for reimbursement.
The NCAA made this decision a few weeks ago so why the delay?
How are they "out that money"?

It does not allow discrimination. It prevents males from using female bathrooms and vice versa. All they need to do is have a separate "gender neutral" bathroom and there will be no need for a male to EVER enter a female rest room and vice versa.

.
They are out that money because the meet is no longer there. Are you suggesting they fly to NC in November and just run te course on their own?

They can still go on the trip and compete.
