On Thursday, a legal filing by PFLAG National revealed that Attorney General Ken Paxton of Texas was seeking identification of transgender members. The organization alleges retaliation.
Using our trans community to direct, their hate breaks my heart. It feels like they're using the trans community as a distraction for what they're doing behind the scenes. As a cis, gender, 73-year-old grandmother my heart is breaking. At least, at this point, I can get my checkbook out and write a check to Planned Parenthood that I always support. Renew my membership in the ACLU. Wipe the tears away and get active.
Paxton is one of the most corrupt, contemptuous, disgusting pieces of trash that has ever walked on two legs. The anti-trans crowd is disgusting and cruel, but Paxton, and his buddies, Abbott and Patrick seem to take exceptional pleasure in being as mean, cruel and discriminatory as possible, and yet Texas keeps voting them in. Living in New York may be expensive as hell, but I am happy to pay a premium for my grandson to live in peace, to be accepted and to have a government that supports trans kids and their families.
This ass is insane! An embarrassment to Texas. He escaped an indictment but pissed bc of the PFLAG lawsuit. Cowardice creature.
Yes, I live in Texas, as a therapist, LCSW, my niche is trans folx. I’m so sick of these actions and causing my clients to live in fear of their existence.
In addition, Paxton is sticking his nose into the AG races in other states. He's been meeting with and "endorsing" candidates in Utah and pushing elected and prospective officials here to adopt his policies. Just what we need, a bunch of Christo-fascist wannabe states.
If Paxton likes lists so much, I'm sure he wouldn't mind giving up the same info he's asking of PFLAG and out-of-state hospitals. Maybe we need a detailed list of all these m*f*ckers. We won't tell them what it's for. We'll just make them guess. Turnabout is fair play, right? I'm just so mad right now that they think they can do this...
Perhaps it's time to learn some lessons from the past. My friend worked at a mental health facility that served the lgbtqia+ community since the 1960s. The had an emergency plan for destroying all their records to protect their clients' identities and information if they were raided by authorities. An awful solution, but it seems we have regressed back to a point where such drastic measures may be necessary.

Wow that’s insane. It’s like the red scare in the 50s

Because 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 bad ever happens when conservative extremists make lists of minorities, right?

Paxton can go pound sand. PFLAG National is located in DC, and DC will tell him to fuck right off.
Further proof they want to persecute us to extinction.
This is an act of terrorism: The unlawful use of intimidation against civilians in pursuit of political aims.

“I’ve got a brick with your name on it, Bud!” is my reply.
And people say comparing these people to nazis is an exaggeration.
It's been beyond obvious that Abbot and Paxton are National Socialists. This is just confirmation.
It's like they are reading an Anthony Comstock biography and using it as an instruction manual.

I look forward to that day for Ken Paxton, and many others of his ilk.
