I hate how Republicans seem to be enthralled with new and exciting ways to hurt people. This isn't what government is for, I want government to create policies to help people not just throw violence at people for some random reason. Can we outlaw making the government hurt people or something? Is that possible?
On the subject of trans civil rights in the US, we already have. It's explicitly outlawed in a variety of places including the Civil Rights Act and 14th amendment.
A non-corrupt SCOTUS would see these anti-trans laws for what they are: discrimination on the basis of sex. Already explicitly illegal. The problem is, conservatism has never cared about rule of law outside of when they can use it as a tool to get their way.
