This law is so sad and I hate that people can't be who they want without a cruel punishment. This reminds me of how strict some states have been with gays getting married or having people reject making their cake. I really hope their laws change ,but it may be a while before that happens.

I agree it is really sad that people are so cruel even when they are just trying to be who they are.
ReplyDeleteThis is especially upsetting when you think about how we've been making progress in the world for LGBTQ rights. I hate that this is going in the opposite direction.
