Shit like this is why I no longer believe in the abolishment of death penalty.
It should be the opposite. This is the perfect example of why the death penalty should 100% be abolished. Right now they're going after driver licenses and bathroom usage, but the slippery slope is very slippery. It won't take much for them to make being trans an illegal offense punishable by death.
Okay, probably I can settle with absolute life in prison, if said prison is a solitary confinement without any access to their preferred religious materials and/or food.
Western democracy says you should tolerate fascists so they can crush you
I just changed mine to NB in my state. $20 to upgrade to real id at the same time.
Better keep picking on less than 1% of the population instead of trying to solve the problems effecting everyone.
They're intentionally focusing on the wrong 1%. Going after trans people is meant to serve as a distraction.
And notice how they gave NO GRACE PERIOD for them whatsoever to cause as much pain and suffering. You can't drive, you can't buy alcohol, tobacco, etc. This goes to show what happens when hateful racists run the entire government and need a minority group to attack and blame everything on.
Remember to vote people, this is why voting is so important.
They gave no grace period and invalidated licenses during elections.
Quit blaming the victims, this is what the result of voting looks like.
ACLU in Kansas is representing two plaintiffs suing the state over this.
Im pretty sure every domino in that image is in the process of falling down, not just trans...
Wtf. This is fucking stupid
choose your fighter



why do we even need sex or gender marked on driver's licences?
Cruelty.
Rapist cops.
I guess so that the police can know whether to say "stop resisting ma'am" or "stop resisting sir" when they pull the driver from the vehicle and start beating them?
nah that can't be it they don't care about misgendering
You misunderstand; they need to know what gender you identify as specifically so they can misgender you.
What a shame. The trans people of Kansas deserve far better than this disgusting violation.
This is so fucked up on so many levels. Next step will be trying to erase trans people from being able to go outside or have a job. I’m surprised Kansas lawmakers just didn’t go ahead and make all trans people sew a pink triangle to everything they wear.

Kansas, like most all of the USA is very car dependent so losing a drivers license could result in not being able to commute to a job
Now I'm awake to the world. I was asleep before. That's how we let it happen. When they slaughtered Congress, we didn't wake up. When they blamed terrorists and suspended the constitution, we didn't wake up then, either. Nothing changes instantaneously. In a gradually heating bathtub, you'd be boiled to death before you knew it.
