Glad to see some good news in this area, but this bit caught my eye:
Firment and other conservative supporters of his bill, including some doctors, have said it would give parents more say in health care decisions and protect children from overly invasive medical procedures.
Needless to say, I am thrilled that this bill was defeated, but WHAT are these idiots talking about here?
How could they possibly believe banning a certain kind of medical care would give parents more say? Do these morons think doctors are forcing gender affirming care on kids without parental approval? SERIOUSLY? That is freaking insane! If you BAN this kind of care, you are giving parents LESS say in health care decisions, not more!
I don't expect anything these cretins do to really make sense, but I am baffled as to how it's possible to get things this completely ass backwards. WTAF?
