The Texas Supreme Court ruled on Friday to uphold a Lone Star State law that effectively bans gender experimentation on children.
In an 8-1 decision published on Friday, the highest court in the state confirmed the legislature’s May 2023 law prohibiting health care professionals from castrating and mutilating minors does not violate the state constitution, as a trial court had previously concluded.
In fact, Justice Rebeca Aizpuru Huddle, joined by Chief Justice Nathan Hecht, Justice Jeff Boyd, Justice John Phillip Devine, Justice Jimmy Blacklock, Justice Brett Busby, Justice Jane Bland, and Justice Evan Young, affirmed in her majority opinion that the state has a vested interest in protecting children.
“Indeed, we have never held that a fit parent’s interest in caring for her child free from government interference, though weighty, triggers heightened scrutiny of every statute that restricts any asserted right connected to that interest,” Huddle wrote.

“We are men and women, irreducibly and inescapably, no matter how we feel. Proceeding from these moral and philosophical premises, the Traditional Vision naturally holds that medicinal or surgical interference with a child’s developing capacity for normal, healthy sexual reproduction is manifestly harmful to the child, an obvious injustice unworthy of the high label ‘medicine,’” Blacklock wrote.

Praise God!
This was a refreshing, decisive decision ruling on the merits, which we don’t see that often. Expect out-of-control rage from the sodomites now.
Any chance the Feds can step in and squash/side-step this decision?
The pendulum is swinging back. Perverts and child predators need to be brought to heel and controlled.
“”Any chance the Feds can step in and squash/side-step this decision?””
If they did, you can bet they would do so in a language none of us would understand. I have to guess at what TRANSING means....Is that a new word we have to add to our vocabulary? I THINK I get the jest of the decision handed down but I wouldn’t count on it. Is it permissable for decisions to be written in PLAIN ENGLISH? I don’t think the majority of the country are attorneys - and thank goodness for that blessing!
“Transgender” is not a real thing, and given the magnitude of the task of changing every one of the body cells of a human being, some trillions of cells, unlikely ever to be accomplished.
It is a simple matter of one's DNA pushing back against any chemical and physical alteration to the body. You can't defeat God's design. You can only do harm to it.
Curious about the one judge. Holdover from Richards?
“We are men and women, irreducibly and inescapably, no matter how we feel. Proceeding from these moral and philosophical premises, the Traditional Vision naturally holds that medicinal or surgical interference with a child’s developing capacity for normal, healthy sexual reproduction is manifestly harmful to the child, an obvious injustice unworthy of the high label ‘medicine,’”
While they may try I doubt that they could slip it by as part of the Constitutionally enumerated powers of the FedGov. USSC would slap it down 9-0.
Unfortunately, it was only an 8-1 decision. Debra Lehrmann has got to go from the Texas Supreme Court.
(Praise God!)
AMEN

God intended for them to be.
PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank goodness someone FINALLY set us straight! Being from the Midwest I was so corn-fused about the sexes!
Funny. My DOGS aren’t! The CATS aren’t! The Cows and Bulls aren’t! The Birds at my feeder aren’t! The Squirrels and Chipmunks aren’t! *SMIRK*
Yes, the WINNING this week has been STUPENDOUS! Not sure if we’ll ever see anything like it again until President in Exile Trump is in the White House - RIGHTFULLY - again!
MAGA! Everyday people are sick and tired of the Socialist Democrat BS. I want to see them ground to DUST!
What about us males who desire to free oursleves of the burdens, entaglements, costs and consequences oftraditional intergender relationships and fantacize about the freedom of becoming untransitioned trans lesbians?
Did they even think about the consequences of this kind of thinking on us? Why should we be burdened with being traditional fathers and breadwinners and have to bear the economic costs of providing for obsolete traditional families when everyone else gets to freeload off of the government?
Go Texas!
