A large percentage of Americans have a problem with trans people, doesn't mean it's justified to kick them out or worse.

Unfortunately it's a fault of democracy. If by democratic powers the majority chooses to step on the rights of the minority, it's called "tyranny of the many".

Nobody said the purpose of democracy is to be "just", it's meant to serve the power and will of the people.
