Bullets don't discriminate.

I mean, regardless of what they’re charged with, a prosecutor would be on thin ice if they started using a bunch of racial slurs to describe the defendant.

The fascist right does some absurd gaslighting, but read this headline and tell me it doesn’t sound like we’re living 1984 levels of reality denial.

Yeah. Being disrespectful to a minority group opens the door for plausible deniability, and framing accusations. They should be fired, not suspended. Your distain for a person is no excuse to belittle their identity, make racist/sexist/transphobic/homophobic comments about them. If you can't be professional and impartial in a court room then you have no business in that line of work.

Rugs trip people in high heels more than those in slippers. That's constructive discrimination right there.

And in order to maintain society we have to make sure everyone has the same rights, and unfortunately that includes child molesters

I thought that gender and sex were different. One is dynamic and one doesn't change. From a legal sense one should be as they are chromosomal.

The article states; > "Sanna has argued in the past that jailhouse phone calls show Tubbs, now 27, was attempting to use gender identity to game the justice system"
I would be interested in the content of those calls. Like did they outright say, "I'm going to pretend to be trans to get a lighter sentence." Or were they just talking about genuinely being trans and hoping they'll take that into consideration?

Innocent until proven guilty in the court of law and a fair trial must be performed

Down the article they go into some of the details of the calls and them using derogatory terms for trans people and that they are intentionally trying to work the system.

Is the molester trans or does he only molest trans children?

Lol they put a 27 year old male pedophile (and now suspected murderer) in a jail occupied entirely by underage girls. Is the judge getting his rocks off to this or something?

This isn't a discussion about chromosome variables, this is a discussion of your documents matching your chromosomes and neither are dynamic.

Western society doesn't allow for that. There is always a victim to be found.

Everyone should have their rights respected, even those who commit heinous acts. While in this case, it appears the accused may be pretending in some twisted attempt to game the system. The prosecutors should still pronouns/new name, even as they present the evidence of the fraud.

documents are dynamic, and in the grand scheme of things don't matter. if someone self identifies as something other than what you think they should identify, your opinion is invalid. it's not that tough to use someones correct pronouns (correct ones being the ones they feel most comfortable being called). and correct pronouns are not something you have to earn, misgendering someone because they did something bad just shows that you're a shit person who doesn't respect anyone who doesn't fit into your worldview

Don't you dare tell me something is broken about me because I don't fit in your world view.
I'm perfect how I am.

lol, you could use help though. you're perfectly valid as a human, but you seem to be a shitty human, one who could use the help of a therapist to figure out how to be a less shitty human. though, to be fair, i don't know you personally, so maybe you're perfect in your irl situation, but on here, you seem less than ideal

From my understanding, pronouns are intended to show respect, why should one respect the identity of someone who is a serious threat to society?
Furthermore wouldn't respecting/validating this guy's pronouns place him in the same category as regular law-abiding transgender individuals? If so that just makes this more detrimental.
