Potty Parity. Not Just a Good Idea, It's the Law

Missouri is mourning Irene Treppler, former Missouri State Senator.

Her greatest contribution to Missouri was Potty Parity, a law that "requires the same number of toilets for women as there are toilets and urinals for men."

You can read more information here. What I find most interesting is her cause of death: a result of "complications from dementia at her home."

I don't want to think too much about what that might mean. If it was just a normal accident, like "fell down the steps," they'd have said that. What did she do? Try to climb on the roof? I want to know a little less than I don't want to know.

Not sayin' this is what happened, but dementia can cause "glitches" in the throat muscles and difficulty swallowing, which can led to choking.
