    I've had a Mormon tell me I'm going straight to hell because I was having coffee.

    So the option is to resort to brainwashing or torture (or whatever) to force people to somehow make people believe what you want them to?

    Or you can say "fuck 'em" and what they believe doesn't matter one bit.

    If they won't use the correct pronouns, then what?

    Torture them until they will?

    That's my point.

    You can't really make someone's attitude change like that.

    Well if they are a medical professional I'm sure a criminal conviction will hurt future employment opportunities.

    I'm not the asshole. It's the people who give you those funny looks that are.

    I'm sure they'll figure out the loopholes. They're always there.

    Yes, people who want to do shitty things to people always find a loophole.

    So the HIV thing is a completely different issue, not at all related to the gender topic, and on that issue I think that 6 months isn't nearly enough of a punishment for someone willfully exposing someone to a potentially deadly disease. That's ridiculous. I'm not sure how to quantify what kind of punishment would fit that crime, but 6 months is not enough. Kinda reminds me of someone who falsely accuses someone of rape and gets that person sent to prison for 10+ years, finally confesses and only gets 12 months of probation or something like that. The punishment doesn't nearly fit the crime.

    In regards to that new bill to protect LGBTQ seniors, it sounds like they're trying to make sure that seniors are receiving the medical care that they need, and are not being mistreated because of their LGBTQ status. I would hope that in some situations, if someone was found guilty they would be terminated from the position, but if negligence was found and lives were put at risk, that person should absolutely face charges.
