Federal Appeals Court Upholds Kentucky, Tennessee Laws Banning Transgender Procedures for Minors
Kudos to the fact that there is still some common sense in the world.
On Thursday, a federal appeals court upheld Tennessee’s and Kentucky’s bans on gender affirming care interventions, such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gender surgeries on children.
The challenge was brought forth from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and families of trans-identifying children.
And by ‘families’ they really meant woke parents who see their children as nothing more than an accessory to virtue-signal to the public.
Chief Judge Jeffrey Sutton and Judge Amul Thapar sided with those who argued that the medical treatments were either partially or entirely irreversible.
“This is a relatively new diagnosis with ever-shifting approaches to care over the last decade or two. Under these circumstances, it is difficult for anyone to be sure about predicting the long-term consequences of abandoning age limits of any sort for these treatments,” wrote Sutton.
The ACLU has since promised to take further action and called the ruling a “devastating result.”
“The disastrous impact of Tennessee’s law and all others like it has already been felt in thousands of homes and communities. Denying transgender youth equality before the law and needlessly withholding the necessary medical care their families and their doctors know is right for them has caused and will continue to cause serious harm,” the ACLU said Thursday in a statement.
Judge Helene White offered the dissenting opinion in the case. She wrote that the Kentucky and Tennessee laws “cannot pass constitutional muster” and “facially discriminate based on a minor’s sex as assigned at birth and on a minor’s failure to conform with societal expectations concerning that sex.”
“Tennessee’s and Kentucky’s laws tell minors and their parents that the minors cannot undergo medical care because of the accidents of their births and their failure to conform to how society believes boys and girls should look and live,” she concluded.
“The laws further deprive the parents—those whom we otherwise recognize as best suited to further their minor children’s interests—of their right to make medical decisions affecting their children in conjunction with their children and medical practitioners. For these reasons, I dissent.”
It really is sick that there are people fighting to profit over these experimental Frankenstein procedures.
The fact that they gaslight the public and call this “care” is so disturbing. They will try and claim that if you do not do these horrid procedures your child will kill themselves.
That is the most abhorrent form of gaslighting imaginable.
They even go as far as to call it “life-saving.” Which is an obvious lie since progressives have only started pushing these “treatments” in mass the past several years.
The whole premise defies logic too as they call it “affirming” care. Since when do we affirm a self-diagnosed patient? That basically means it is up to the child to decide.
Kids do not even understand the repercussions their choices have on the future.
It really is sick that people fight for doctors to chop up children like that.
This is a disastrous movement and agenda being perpetuated against children. But at least there is still some sanity that exists in the legal system.
