The law goes further than laws in other states to restrict which bathrooms transgender people can use in public places.
A judge ruled Tuesday that transgender people won’t face criminal charges for using Idaho public restrooms that match their gender identities.
The ruling from U.S. District Judge Amanda Brailsford puts on hold enforcement of key components of a law adopted in March — and set to take effect July 1 — that went further than laws in other states to restrict which bathrooms transgender people can use in public places, including privately owned places where restrooms are open to the public.
“This ruling will allow transgender people throughout Idaho to find and use a public restroom,” Lambda Legal lawyer Kell Olson said in a statement Tuesday, “without the fear of arrest looming over them, while we continue the longer fight to permanently defeat this discriminatory law in court.”
Every Christian denying a transgender person from using the restroom was tested and failed, and will go to hell for being a despicable person, in a situation where they could have chosen not to be, without any harm to themselves or others.
Failed? My friend, God tested Abraham by ordering him to kill his own son.
Oh but when I do it suddenly I'm a "psychopath" who "needs to leave Wendy's right now" /s
🤣
Yes yes, it says to love thy neighbor, but to kill him if he is gathering wood on a Sunday.
But most Christians defend and identify Christianity by using Jesus and his examples of being good towards people, like healing the sick, feed the hungry, not throwing the first stone, and turn the other cheek, as in not being aggressive and to not escalate situations.
"human morality is irrelevant, all that matters is word of god!" /s
So I have to ask is this judge truly a good person or are Republicans plotting to stir up their base before the elections?
She was appointed by Joe Biden, so my guess is this is actually how she feels.
...yay... we managed to not make peeing illegal for some people...
Either way, a win is a win.
