Or maybe strapped to a tree in a forest full of hungry grizzly bears
Yes, although that would arguably be too quick 🤔
Or maybe strapped to a tree in a forest full of ~~hungry~~ horny grizzly bears. Is that better?
We should punish the people hurting our children, like this jackass attorney general preventing them from getting treatment for Gender Dysphoria.
To add to the pile of evidence that this is all just hateful bigotry and has nothing to do with children's safety, cisgender children can still legally access these drugs, but not for the purpose of transitioning genders. The same drugs can still be used to delay aggressive puberty, which is a standard and relatively common usage, as well as other conditions that might affect a cisgender child. But a trans child who needs the same drugs for a different reason, will be told too bad, you're out of luck. So two children could walk into the same doctor's office and one will be turned away and forced to suffer through their gender dysphoria, with permanent repercussions for their mental health and body, and the other child will be treated with the drugs they need to be treated with. It's absurdly unfair, unequal, and purposefully harmful to a vulnerable population.
Ken Paxton is a blight on humanity.
Who will rid me of this troublesome AG
Time, eventually
We don't have too much of that left.
we can't buy more time
’cause time won't accept our money
As doctors continue to flee the state
My doctor closed her practice in the state. She's the kindest doctor I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with, and I'm sad that I have to find a new one.
If he wanted to find a criminal, just look in the mirror.
Ken Paxton is a ghoul
This doc is a hero!
Also, wouldn’t it be cool to send a message to Paxton, and send a few fed lawyers to be her defense…. ? (Biden… I’m looking at you.)
America, home of the free.
and 'dont tread on me' texas of all places
It's more like this:
Why does he look like that alien from Men In Black that's basically just a giant space roach wearing a human's skin?
