Yup - if liberals want to change the constitution they are supposed to go thru the amending process. Instead some liberal judge makes the change and calls it an interpretation!!! Been going on for decades.

According to the Constitution judges "shall hold their office under good Behavior", which is an extremely low bar to impeach and remove. Yet they never are, because Congress has zero balls.

No supreme court judge has ever been removed by the impeachment process but lesser federal judges have been. It's rare but it has happened.
 
Any obvious reading of the constitution prohibits people from being discriminated against due to bigotry. Denying medically necessary healthcare just because of one mans ignorance and bigotry is in violation of every principle of justice, and the constitution.

It's a treatment for a medical condition they suffer from. It's no more elective than the collar bone surgery I just got to that a non union. Sure, I could have gone my entire life with a disjointed flat bone, but why should I? The purpose of healthcare is to rescue perfect health, not to avoid anything not necessary for the life of the patient. Correcting somebody's gender is medically necessary. It has been shown to have massive mental health benefits and massively reduce suicide rates. Denying this because some people are bigoted against those with gender dysphoria is against every principle of justice.

Gender dysphoria is the PC name for "gender identity disorder".

Nope. It's a mental disorder, which falls under a section 8. Definitely NOT medically necessary.
I don't know about the other posters here, but I would much rather have a woman that knows she's a woman watching my back than some guy who thinks he's a woman.

Ridiculous, anyone watching your back is a good thing, especially in a fire fight, as you should know.
