The Loudoun County Bathroom Incident From a Biblical Worldview

Episode Summary. Just about anyone who has been listening to the news knows about the vote of the Loudoun County school board this last August “to allow transgender students to use school bathrooms matching their gender identity, and Loudin County resident Scott Smith’s attempt to speak at a schoolboard meeting prior to that decision about the sexual assault of his daughter in Stone Bridge HS girl’s restroom by a boy wearing a skirt. In an interview with the Daily Wire, Smith claimed that he had attempted to bring up the assault on his daughter at a school-board meeting on June 22, but he was arrested by police before he could speak. This past week, the 15-year-old boy about whom Smith was speaking was convicted by a Loudoun County judge of the sexual assault of his daughter.
