A Republican dominated special legislative session on Gun Safety where the rules prohibit introducing bills on guns? I am Jackโs resigned lack of surprise.
โFirst rule of Republican Fight Club, we do not talk about fighting. Second rule of Republican Fight Club, we do not talk about fighting. Third and final rule, if you are present at Republican Fight Club, you have to not fight.โ
Just for the record, in case anyone doesnโt realize this:
When your birth certificate is legally changed โ and there are a number of reasons why that might happen โ the former one goes into the vault and is never seen again. If any official requests a certified copy of your โoriginalโ birth certificate, what they will get is the one currently on file.
Thatโs why theyโre fighting so hard to keep people from being able to change their records: because once that happens, they can say โgender from birthโ all they want, but your birth certificate will say thatโs what you are, and they canโt override it.
In my birth state even I canโt get a copy of my original birth certificate without a district court order. Iโm not sure what reasons the court would even consider my request under.
It was the same for me. I think itโs not required now.
But you can get your passport gender designation changed. And with that & other ID - you can fill out your I9 employment docs without your birth certificate. Which is a huge help.
Edit:
Thanks, Obama! And thanks, Hilary! That was a State Department change under her.
You needed a medical certificate of medical treatment back then. Uncle Joe d/cโed the medical certificate requirement in 2021? Thank, Joe!
Thereโs something about all those people working to make life easier โ and protect the human and civil rights โ for people in the U.S. I wonder what that could be?
(I liked my other gif better, but it was too big.)
Last weekend, 66-year-old San Bernardino resident Laura Ann โLauriโ Carleton was shot and killed in front of her store in Lake Arrowhead, California. She is survived by her nine children. Her alleged killer was a 27-year-old man whom she confronted while he tried to tear down the Progress Pride flags in front of her shop.
The man who pulled the trigger against Carleton was later killed in a fatal shootout with police, but the people who helped load his brain with homicidal rage remain free. Nobody is born full of fury at the Pride flag. This rage was learned.
She stood up for her rights as a capitalist and business owner, when the thug vandalized her property and then killed her for trying to stop the crime.
Funny how differently the headlines would read if there hadnโt been a Pride flag involved.
