    Well this is where it’s headed. First it will be teachers, parents, doctors, therapists.

    Then they’ll want to register trans adults as sex offenders. Then all LGBTQ people.

    Like so much of the government in the US, the infrastructure is there, ready to be abused. Change one line and it applies to all of us.

    Anyone not realize just how awful it would be to get labeled a sex offender? It makes it almost impossible to find a place to live, or a job. People will seek you out and harass you in public. This is an extremely serious classification that shouldn’t have anything to do with “culture wars”. It should be reserved only for the worst classes of convicted criminals – if it’s not actually cruel and unusual and unnecessarily punative.

      I love how everyone gets online and grumbles about this and then says I’m the crazy one for telling you to arm up. You have cheerfully ceded all violent power to the state and then can’t understand why the state is turning on you. Sad. This was the entire point behind the citizen militia. Lots of other left-leaning countries have this. The US is fascist becuae it doesn’t.
