Well, this settles it. There is no such thing as a moderate Democrat anymore. The party has been hijacked by radical "Build Back Better" extremists! No rational person would support physically or chemically castrating a minor child. A minor cannot vote, drive a vehicle, purchase alcohol, take out a loan, purchase lottery tickets, purchase cigarettes, etc., but they can choose to have their genitalia permanently altered? Good grief!

What does that even mean? There is no substance to his reasoning for vetoing this bill to protect children from "adults".
I believe there is a Gubernatorial Election in Kentucky this November. Perhaps Kentuckians should show Governor Beshear what they think of anyone who believes it is acceptable to castrate healthy children...
What in the world ever made you think Beshear was a "moderate Democrat"? Because he's mild-mannered? He's a dedicated leftist, if not a Communist or Marxist.

His competitor for the office, a young black sane male, will kill him in Kentucky.
Err no, there was a little bit more to it than that.
"banning access to gender-affirming health care and restricting the bathrooms they can use.
The bill also bans discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity in schools and allows teachers to refuse to refer to transgender students by the pronouns they use. It easily passed the GOP-dominated legislature with veto-proof margins, and lawmakers will reconvene next week for the final two days of this year’s session, when they could vote to override the veto.
Gov. Andy Beshear said in a written veto message that the bill allows “too much government interference in personal healthcare issues and rips away the freedom of parents to make medical decisions for their children.”

Governmental interference and parental rights become incredibly interesting points of contention when one considers how deranged everybody's become. The so-called "gender-affirming care" euphemism is gaslighting as far as I'm concerned (to put it politely), but there's a somewhat adjacent corollary on the far-right, albeit constituting a significantly smaller minority of people: Should parents be able to refuse to treating a sick child, for religious reasons, with basic antibiotics that would cure the illness, particularly when the alternative to not doing so is certain death? I think the answer to the latter is clearly "no."
Now, you could say that gender-affirming care doesn't result in death (though it clearly can as we've seen on the news — particularly when it comes to surgical interventions). But philosophically, is it truly any more moral to engage in medical interventions that will almost certainly lead to a lifetime of medicalization and suffering, just because the folks representing institutions have been captured by ideology and want to normalize, if not encourage as a default, a condition that was universally recognized as a mental health disorder less than a decade ago? For me, that's a pretty clear "no" as well. I've no qualms with adults making choices for themselves once they've reached the age of majority, but at a minimum minor-aged children need to be kept off-limits to psychological reinforcement/manipulation, as well as pharmaceutical and surgical interventions.
I mean, is it truly impossible to arrive at a happy medium of sorts on this issue, somewhere? Just wondering aloud and off-the-cuff here...
Beshear is a two faced liar. He even had a TV ad with him stating transgender surgeries on minors don't even happen in KY and then the hospital doing them showed documented proof that they were. This was before the Republican state legislature had the good sense to make such surgeries for minors illegal. That's the bill Beshear vetoed. The state legislature is constantly over riding his vetoes on bills.
Beshear is a master of deception taking credit for creating jobs he had nothing to do with. He's the biggest photo opportunist I've ever seen. He's constantly going around the state handing out money, acting like the money comes from his personal bank account, smiling for the camera at every turn he makes.
He's as liberal as they come. He's never met any Biden policy which he won't embrace. He has no mind of his own, simply does whatever the current administration tells him to do.
What he has going for him are his looks and personality. He takes a great picture and cries along with people who have endured natural disasters. Whoever coined the phrase "never let a good crisis go to waste", no doubt had Beshear in mind.

Because we certainly want to retain the right to sacrifice our children in the name of a political/social fad. If the kiddies want to be horses, then by God, we make them into horses.
