Sure, good luck to the North Korean, please do try it and then see what happens.
Well, I hope for an invasion and not ICBM attack because in USA there are the various cats and there are progressive activists and sensible people too.
Meantime, the actual story is being blown out of proportion only by ignoranuses just to follow their own prejudices. This bill is still not law, and even then only for Washington state:
OLYMPIA – Legislation to protect transgender and at-risk youth seeking gender-affirming or reproductive care passed the House on Wednesday.Legislation to protect trans youth seeking lifesaving care passes the House - Sen. Marko Liias
Putting People Firstsenatedemocrats.wa.gov
Sen. Marko Liias’ (D-Everett) Senate Bill 5599 affirms that trans youth are protected in Washington state by removing barriers to safe shelter.
This legislation gives meaningful choices to young people who may not have supportive families at home so they do not end up on the street, but instead have shelter options when seeking this life-saving care.
Under current law, licensed shelters must notify parents if a child comes into their care, unless a compelling reason applies. This legislation allows licensed shelters to contact the Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) in lieu of parents in certain additional instances, like when a young person is seeking reproductive health services or gender-affirming care.
“We know that young people experiencing homelessness are exposed to dangerous and harmful outcomes. That is why we must take every step we can to ensure their safety,” Sen. Liias said. “This legislation ensures that our trans youth have safe options and access to secure, stable shelter when they may not be welcome at home.”
The need for SB 5599 comes as states across the country introduce and pass anti-LGBTQ legislation. According to the ACLU, 452 anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced across 45 states and 29 bills have passed in 14 different states.
Washington has repeatedly affirmed its commitment to the LGBTQ community by passing legislation to ensure access to gender-affirming care, ban conversion therapy, and require schools to adopt policies that protect transgender children from bullying.
The bill now returns to the Senate for further consideration on amendments made by the House.
That's Washington State not Washington DC.
Still there are these two points :
1. This proposal was not rejected immediately. This is affirmation of "Better dead than Red" in form of "Better Homo than Casanova".
2. From googling, in Washington state there are 25,452 homeless people but this proposal is only for the alphabet gender people and not for the rest of the 25,452 homeless people. Are the rest no humans or Americans ? Is being gay now sacred ?
