In the crisis moment of fighting a fire or saving someone from being shot, why would any RATIONAL city entity require that, in addition to the essential things necessary to save a life, a policeman or fireman ALSO has to remember what stupid pronoun to call the people they are trying to help? And will those ingrates then subsequently sue him for addressing their little snowflake selves by the wrong pronoun? Libtard stupidity at its most blatant. It might even jeopardize lives. I cannot imagine the level of stupidity of the people who voted in the politicians requiring this garbage. I know it sure wasn't ME.
You are right it is the stupidest thing I have heard about.
I was just being sarcastic.
Here you are at post 32 and you are the first to address the question rationally.
A bigger issue here is lifesaving communication. The EMT or Paramedic will be in communication with a ER doctor and eliminating confusion between the EMT and the doctor is paramount with the lifesaving goal.
Sex, age and vital signs are the big three that the doctor needs to know and any confusion in those three can cause the death of the patient.
The Left always needs a boogieman to fight to keep their coalition marching in lock step. LGBT discrimination is the New and Improved version of racism. As usual the likely hood of incents being the victims of the Lefts political maneuvering is of no concern.
