Arkansas To Ban Use Of ‘X’ On Drivers Licenses, Says Gender Must Match Birth Certificate
Daily Wire ^ | March 12, 2024 | Leif Le Mahieu

Posted on 03/13/2024 11:24:59 PM PDT by deks

Arkansas Republican Governor Sarah Sanders said on Tuesday that the state would ban the use of “X” on driver’s licenses and that state IDs must identify the individual as either male or female, according to an announcement first shared with The Daily Wire.

“This policy is just common sense,” Sanders told The Daily Wire. “Only women give birth, men shouldn’t play women’s sports, and there are only two genders. As long as I’m Governor, Arkansas state government will not endorse nonsense.”

“This change announced today reflects a commonsense approach that ensures a license or ID issued by the State of Arkansas is based on objective, verifiable information,” Hudson said. “All of our stakeholders in law enforcement, other government agencies, caregivers, schools, and businesses depend on DFA-issued licenses and IDs to keep our communities safe and to prevent fraud.

The discontinued policy is not supported by Arkansas law and was never subject to public comment and review by the Arkansas Legislative Council (ALC), as required by the Administrative Procedures Act.”

I think DF vice X should be allowed... DF could be fluid meaning either delusional freak or dumb f—k but warns folks who they’re dealing with.

Delusion now dominantes society. How did we get to the point that reality is revolutionary?

If I had a dollar for every gender, I’d have $2.00.

What if you're from califonia moving to arkansas and your changed birth certificate reads your gender is "X" ?

are we going to have to start giving blood tests to prove you are an Adam, not an Eve?

even then the devil tells people its more about "them " than it is about their 'Creator".

Are you planning to fly domestically or visit a Federal facility after May 7, 2025?

The REAL ID Act establishes minimum security standards for driver's license issuance. On May 7, 2025, U.S. travelers must be REAL ID compliant to board domestic flights and access certain federal facilities.

To obtain a REAL ID driver's license with a star in the upper right corner, a U.S. Birth Certificate is used to prove your identity.

Great news....there’s no gender called X... Male or Female are the only gender.

Good point about amended birth certificates. I hope that in the future Governor Sanders and re-elected President Trump will be addressing the issue of how to reliably verify an individual’s biological sex for various purposes, such as ID, driver’s license, or keeping men out of women’s sports.

I found an image of an AR drivers license online. I can’t find ‘Gender’ listed anywhere on it, only ‘Sex’ which is determined by chromosomes.

Traditionally I suppose all U.S. driver’s licenses indicated sex by “M” or “F”, but some now include the “X” option.

Gender was “the grammatical arrangement of nouns, pronouns and adjectives into masculine, feminine, and neuter types in some languages”, but the word got hijacked for other purposes.

The leftist premise is that people are empowered to dictate what other people think of them. It started with enforcing the delusion of a homosexual identity. That succeeded so they moved on to gender identity. The whole concept is delusional.

Facts: There is no such thing as “a homosexual”, gender is physical reality, and nobody gets to say what others must think of him.

So we need to pass laws that say if someone presents such a birth certificate, that was altered after birth, they are presenting fraudulent identification documents.

Additionally, from the Oxford dictionary about the history of the word gender used to refer to sex...

Originally extended from the grammatical use, sometimes humorously, as also in Anglo-Norman and Old French [since the 15th century].

In the 20th century [since 1945] as sex came increasingly to mean sexual intercourse, gender began to replace it, in early use euphemistically, as the usual word for the biological grouping of males and females.

It is now often merged with or colored by [gender identity] “The state of being male or female as expressed by social or cultural distinctions and differences, rather than biological ones”.

Yep - and associated with the coming Antichrist (that Wicked)


2 Thessalonians 2:1-12
King James Version

2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Good to see.....a state with some actual common sense that is not willing to go along with Leftist fads ...

... a state that has announced it will not pander to the delusions of the mentally ill ... the seriously mentally ill ... nor to those comparatively rational individuals who, for whatever reason, actively participate in and promote as "normal" behavior the delusions of the mentally ill ... the seriously mentally ill.

I remember a photo on the internet about 20 or so years ago of a cop in New Mexico doing that to a woman over a traffic ticket.

I agree.
Parts of modern society has made “delusion” a certain priority as they aim to partly ban reality.
Do you remember when the Democrats said “follow the science” during the Covid pandemic?

Well... they do the exact OPPOSITE when it comes to basic biology concerning the science of the human body. For example, they believe it’s normal for a man or a woman to be mutilated until they become something they are not scientifically...
