Republicans' war on transgender people: Omnibus thread

Don’t forget coward.

Normal, decent, functional people: ‘I need to have a medical procedure.’

Republicants: ‘I need for you to not have a medical procedure.’

TN State Rep. Monty Fritts {R} Supports Capital Punishment For Those Who Help Children Change Their Sex

Countdown to Monty Fritts being outed as a pedophile…5…4…3…

Biblical sins should be punishable by death?

Very Old Testament.

These are the kind of people we’re dealing with. Gender hormone therapy, which can be terminated at any time, should be punishable by death, they say.

Transgender hormone therapy, the identical cisgender hormone therapy is perfectly fine.

I thought Bible 2.0 overruled all that. If not go whole hog* with all the other laws like stoning adulterers to death, wearing mixed fibers, and finding a perfect heifer to sacrifice.

Or is he a cafeteria Christian?

*Or not – no more ribs for you, buddy.

Sweeping anti-trans bill, SB244, has been passed in Kansas over the Democratic governor’s veto, and Kansas is now sending out letters to transgender people in the state compelling them to forfeit their driver’s licenses and have them replaced with ones that match their sex assigned at birth. If they don’t, they could face fines and jail time.

Trans Kansans also cannot use public restrooms or locker rooms matching their gender identity, and bounty-style lawsuits have been implemented to prevent them from doing so.

What are the odds this also affects their ability to vote by making “acceptable” IDs difficult to obtain?

A reminder that the Nazis also began revoking government IDs for trans people almost immediately after taking power in 1933. It was 1938 before they did the same for Jews.

I posted about this in another thread. One additional bit of joy – this is effective immediately, so there’s no time to prepare anything.

The Trump administration’s newest horror: forcibly detransitioning trans people in prison while subjecting them to what is effectively “conversion therapy”.

Not that they give a shit about the US Constitution in this administration, but that seems like a clear violation of the 8th Amendment.

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Forcing someone to change their identity while imprisoned is a blatant violation.
