Tucker Clashes With Arkansas Governor Over Youth Gender Reassignment Bill

I cannot help but feel disgusted by Asa Hutchinson's lack of consistency on a moral issue such as this.

The problem with the studies is they reflect ONLY the patient's issues, not the culture surrounding the patient.

When someone is dealing with GID only internally, we get suicide increases because they are 'alone'. But when they go on blockers, they MUST begin social transition which opens them up to HUGE amounts of bullying by peers and by adults. This radically adds to the issues facing someone with GID. Without a strong support system, the issues around GID, social transitioning AND bullying from the community is overwhelming. I saw it at 26 and again at 29 and it was HELL.

The Governor's point that the government stepping into the medical care of a patient is EXACTLY the same argument people had against socialized, government controlled medicine - that the Right had against Obamacare. Where is the Conservative position that supports the government dictating a 'one size fits all' approach instead of the patient/doctor/parent nexus?

I support banning surgery for minors. I do NOT support banning blockers.
