I have two reasons to hope there isn't a government shutdown. One reason is selfish.

Well it was just a matter of time before the hate reached this level of blithering pig-ignorance.

MAGA Hats here, Sloat, olde dude... Please tell me who would be "protected" by this? Who is harmed if this doesn't become law? Why is this law needed? What possible difference could it make to the government at all? Because it was never a problem in any way whatsoever before now in any state in the Union.


Texas Republican proposes jail time for identifying as transgender

“Gender identity fraud” could bring up to two years in jail under a bill by Rep. Tom Oliverson.

AUSTIN — A Texas Republican has filed a bill that would criminalize transgender people who mislead the government or an employer by stating their gender identity as their biological sex.

House Bill 3817 would create a criminal penalty for “gender identity fraud,” making it a state jail felony to make a false or misleading statement misidentifying one’s biological sex to a governmental entity or an employer.

A state jail felony can be punished with six months to two years in jail and a fine of up to $10,000.

Rep. Tom Oliverson, R-Cypress — a former candidate for House speaker — filed the bill last week. It is among dozens of proposals in the Legislature that would affect the state’s estimated transgender population of 120,000 people. Friday is the deadline for most bills to be filed this session.

    Ponderer,
    I can think of one case in which I'd like that law to be applied. They both should be jail for perpetrating fraud.

    "False or misleading statement."

    That's fraud, ain't?

    No. If it were this administration would be in real trouble.

    I can't see this becoming law but the tide has turned. Biology is a science again.

    I think a "law" is dumb. A mistake is human and not to be charged either. So if I call someone sir, that just started transition to "ma'am", I don't want my house burned down and dog killed. Of course, I live in FL and there's 100meters all around my house,...

    That's the biggest problem I have with the whole thing.

    ""False or misleading statement."

    That's fraud, ain't?"
    -Sloat


    A woman going around, filling out government documents using her husband's last name when that's not the name on her birth certificate is providing false and misleading statements on government forms. That's certainly fraud. Ain't it not?

    In fact, it's so fraudulent that Republicans want women whose names are different than what's on their birth certificates will have to have to go through extra hell to prove they are who they are just to vote.

    I certainly hope that your wife isn't committing this type of fraud, Sloat.
