Yesterday, a group of very civil, concerned protesters decided to politely confront Arizona Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema over her resistance to Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.
By following her into a bathroom.

These sickos appear to have broken the law, and you can be sure that if it had been AOC in that bathroom and not Kyrsten Sinema, we’d be smack-dab in the middle of a full-blown media and liberal outrage cycle.
Instead, we’ve got tributes to the protesters’ bravery and suggestions that Sen. Sinema had it coming to her.
Here’s Sawyer Hackett, the same guy who kicked off the media and liberal outrage cycle surrounding the false narrative about mounted Border Patrol agents using whips on Haitian migrants:
Imagine coming to the US at age 3, having both your parents deported, and living in the US for 20 years without a pathway to citizenship, only to be told you’re being “counterproductive” by confronting a senator in public for standing in the way.

*Confronting a senator in a public bathroom. A bathroom. And filming it. Without her consent.
Of course there are spaces that should remain private. But understand the desperation and frustration people face by inaction on this issue, rather than jumping to frame it politically. It strips the humanity out of a deeply human issue.

How about Sen. Sinema’s humanity and dignity? Did we mention that she was in the bathroom?

You're defending filming a woman in a restroom. https://t.co/Ei5dB0ibss

In a bathroom.
You’re not the good guy here. https://t.co/pVak5eUnhu

It was not a good thing. It doesn’t justify crossing the line like that. And, it will not solve her problem.

Do you think harassing her in the bathroom made her more, or less, sympathetic to the protester?

It seriously blows my mind that anyone thinks this is productive.

Maybe we should follow Sawyer into the bathroom to ask him why he thought it was OK to kneecap Border Patrol and get agents into trouble for doing nothing wrong. And film it, of course.
Yo, @LoudounSheriff. Sawyer thinks bathrooms are public spaces. Sex crimes might want to have a file on this guy if they don't already.
Also, he's defending a hate crime against an LGBTQ Senator, so whoever handles crimes against that community should also have a look at him. https://t.co/jdRouaA3uj

It’s only fair.
If one takes this argument seriously from the head of @JulianCastro's group, everyone who disagrees with Castro should follow him into bathrooms and hector him when he's in the stall, filming it.
Same with Gretchen Whitmer, Kathy Hochul, AOC & Katie Porter. No bathroom peace. https://t.co/FVI9KkMZhG

I'd love for there to be a political party that doesn't care enough about any issue to have to justify following a woman into the bathroom with a camera. https://t.co/UuXyoK06L3
