Federal appeals court forbids school from imposing mandatory pronoun policy on students ✊
· Oct 5, 2023 · NottheBee.com

Pretty good ruling here, especially for the kids who were being subject to this bananas nonsense:

The St. Louis-based 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a preliminary injunction Monday against an Iowa school district policy that threatens suspension and expulsion for "intentional and/or persistent refusal … to respect" a peer's gender identity, finding it's likely too vague to survive legal scrutiny.

"A school district cannot avoid the strictures of the First Amendment simply by defining certain speech as 'bullying' or 'harassment'" as did the Linn-Mar Community School District, the three-judge panel ruled in a case that drew friend-of-the-court briefs by dozens of conservative and religious groups and 18 Republican-led states in favor of the plaintiffs.

It is, of course, not "bullying" or "harassment" to refuse to use the fake pronouns of a confused young student. If you refuse to call a girl "he" or a boy "she," you're simply stating the truth.

That we even need a court to adjudicate this is just silly and awful. That it's gotten to this point shows just how far gone our schools are, and how much ground we have left to recover. It's a long way to go.

We must give a great deal of credit to the parent groups, attorneys general, religious organizations and other tireless fighters who have been carrying these fights out for months. Big props.

Keep it up, folks, your work is bearing fruit.
