Legislators in California are considering a bill that would allow state officials to separate children from their families without letting the parents know until after the fact.
Government authorities could do this for children who struggle with gender identity problems but whose parents are not being “ affirming ” of their new identification as the opposite sex, or as nonbinary, gender fluid, pansexual, or one of the other made-up genders or sexual orientations.
THERE'S NOTHING 'AFFIRMING' ABOUT MUTILATING CHILDREN
The bill, AB 665 , “would allow children as young as 12 years old to consent to being placed into state-funded group homes without parental permission or knowledge,” according to an analysis from California Family Council. The legislation gives a government bureaucrat the ability to keep a mother and father out of the equation based on his or her own personal decision.
“The mental health treatment or counseling of a minor authorized by this section shall include involvement of the minor’s parent or guardian unless the professional person who is treating or counseling the minor, after consulting with the minor, determines that the involvement would be inappropriate,” the bill currently states .
It removes the current, commonsense law that allows for children to opt into mental health services without parental consent only if they are being abused, meaning that children of healthy parents could now “consent to mental health treatment or counseling on an outpatient basis, or to residential shelter services.”
“Over one-half of surveyed LGBTQ+ youth reported that not being able to get permission from their parents or guardians was sometimes or always a barrier to accessing mental health services,” the bill states, ostensibly as justification for cutting parents out of the picture. This claim likely comes from a self-selected online survey of LGBT people conducted by the advocacy group Trevor Project.
But parents might have a good reason not to give permission for students to access specific mental health services, which are not all made the same. For example, the parents may object to the false idea that men can become women and, for that reason, do not want their children going to a counselor who is going to encourage their son to call himself a girl, wear dresses, and change his pronouns . The mental health services a 13-year-old suffering from depression thinks she wants may not be in her best interest nor aligned with her parents’ values.
It seems quite obvious, given the text and the author of the bill, that the purpose of this legislation is to facilitate children in identifying as a different gender. First, the text cites “LGBTQ+ youth.” Second, the legislation is written by state Sen. Scott Wiener , who has also pushed for a law to make California a “refuge” where one parent can transport his or her child to the state, ignore custody orders, and medically “transition” the child.
So then the fair question is, why does he want parents cut out of the picture? Children who are the victims of abuse can already access regular anxiety or depression counseling.
This is clearly about making sure children confused about their gender can be transitioned and affirmed in their delusions without their parents’ knowledge. In fact, it sounds similar to the plans by a Virginia LGBT group called the Pride Liberation Project to help gay youth get a new home with gay couples if their parents are not on board with their same-sex attraction and choices.
Children who are legitimate victims of abuse already have avenues to report their parents and seek real counseling and assistance. This bill severs the important ties between parents and children and aims to impose Wiener’s value system onto all families instead of letting the actual parents make the best moral and legal decisions to help their children.
America is just so Constitutional these days. Such freedom and democracy here. /s
Over the years there’s been so much talk of, too late to vote, too early to shoot.
They now want to take and rape our kids. Where is the line?
Rule .308 applies here.

Evil.
You lost when accepted Covid lockdowns.
Sounds so Chinese.
They shoukd throw the sick freaks who created the bill out of their positions for even suggesting such a sick violation of people s rights
For anyone that doesn’t believe satan is real....if this doesn’t convince you nothing will
Hey America! What do you think of the latest iteration of azhos YOU elected to be your gubmint? Elections do have consequences. You need to layoff the banana boat, mail in ballots. Belafonte is so 50s-ish.
On the one hand, this is a horrible horrible abolition of parent’s rights.
On the other, I can see this having the unintended consequence of gender confused children facing absolute separation from their parents, bottling up their confusion and pretending to be normal. Which in my zero psychological training opinion, might be a good thing.
The Bill Number should be ‘666’. not 665
That these evil bastards can discuss this openly says a whole lot about the state of our nation.
AND——THE GOVERNOR OF CALIF WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT OF ALL 50 STATES
Being California I fully expect a ton of parents to be completely on board with this insanity.
The others will be the next wave of refugees into my state
So are they going to buy life insurance for their state employees?
It’s California, so most on the coast are bleating sheep, but I suspect there might be some Latinos and Northern residents who are serious about their Christianity that would be more than willing to protect their families by putting the hammer down.
When scalps are taken they’ll wonder why.
Another question is, if you were to shoot, who?
To clarify, we should be using the second amendment to ensure due process and equal application of the law. The government clearly has no qualms using arms to enforce their agenda. (see also - 87k armed IRS agents)
But to your question, it’s clear that those elected aren’t representative of the voters. Through fraud and other methods these people continue to hold power despite the will of the voters.
Candidates should fear disenfranchised voters. Until they do, the steals will continue. A legitimate government has no reason to fear an armed citizenry.
Insanity.
