Biden Calls Bans on Transgender Treatments for Children ‘Close to Sinful’
Catholic News Agency ^ | 3/13/23 | Tyler Arnold

Posted on 03/14/2023 5:53:30 PM PDT by marshmallow

President Joe Biden criticized Florida’s regulation of transgender medical care for children and ban on gender ideology in the classroom, calling the measures “close to sinful.”

Biden said in an interview with Daily Show guest host Kal Penn: “What’s going on in Florida is, as my mother would say, close to sinful. I mean it’s just terrible what they’re doing.”

Although the president did not specify which laws he was referring to, Republican lawmakers in Florida and other states have introduced bills and regulations to protect children from transgender medical interventions and restrict classroom instruction in gender ideology.

During his interview, Biden added that federal legislation might be necessary to prevent states from adopting certain bills that affect transgender policies related to children.

“It’s not like, you know, a kid wakes up one morning and says, ‘You know, I decided I want to become a man or I want to become a woman,” the president said. “I mean, what are they thinking about here? They’re human beings, they love and have feelings. … It’s cruel. We [should] make sure we pass [federal] legislation like we passed on same-sex marriage. You mess with that, you’re breaking the law and you’re going to be held accountable.”

In Florida, a ban on transgender surgeries and medications for children, issued by the state’s Board of Medicine, goes into effect March 16. Lawmakers have also proposed legislation banning transgender medical procedures.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed legislation that prevents schools from promoting gender ideology through discussions of transgenderism and sexual orientation to young children in kindergarten through third grade. The legislation requires such discussions in later grades to be age appropriate.

Close to sinful to ban the mutilation of kid's genitals?

If the man has a moral compass he must be holding it upside down.

” “What’s going on in Florida is, as my mother would say, close to sinful. I mean it’s just terrible what they’re doing.”

Ma Biden sat him down on the porch swing and said, “Joey, my boy, you listen up real good. There ain’t no greater sin in the world than stopping a boy pretending to be a girl from chopping off his private parts.”

Liberals want to keep making exceptions for minors on issues they care about.

Either kids are not capable or they are. PERIOD!

If they are not capable, then start trying all kids as adults when they commit crimes!

Because they are either too young to understand or they are not, you can’t have it both ways!

The Left’s Core Strategy #1: Lie forcefully knowing the media and the appropriate establishment will support you.

The Left’s Core Strategy #2: “Pick the target and polarize it" via Rules for Radicals.

The Left’s Core Strategy #3: Scream accusations of racism* (or racist* attacks) at anything you don't like or which slows your agenda. *Sexism, "homophobia", etc. are also opportunities.

The Left’s Core Strategy #4: Attack your opposition by projecting your guilt onto them.

The Left’s Core Strategy #5: Declare that your destructive actions are creating a positive outcome.

The Left’s Core Strategy #6: Attack opposition with shallow insults in an effort to negatively influence the public's view of their character. Think drive-by shooter.

The Left’s Core Strategy #7: When all else fails, censor speech and/or deploy violence.

Repeat

How about evil as Hell? Of course, Democrats prefer a certain amount of moral ambiguity since they all support killing babies by ripping them to pieces in the womb.

He never had a moral compass, just an immoral protractor.
